London 2012: Olympic torch relay street route set out
The youngest torchbearer is Dominic MacGowan, 11,
and the oldest is 99-year-old Diana Gould who will be 100 when she
carries the Olympic flame
The street-by-street route the London 2012 Olympic torch relay will take around the UK has been set out.
The names of the majority of the 8,000 people who will carry
the flame on its 8,000 mile journey have also been confirmed by Games
organisers Locog. The Olympic flame arrives in the UK on 18 May and begins its 70-day journey at Land's End on the morning of 19 May.
It will visit every nation and region and stop off at landmarks such as Stonehenge and the Giant's Causeway.
It will pass through 1,018 places as well as visiting Dublin on its journey to the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games on 27 July.
Potential torchbearers were nominated through programmes run by Locog and sponsors Coca-Cola, Lloyds TSB and Samsung in 2011.
They aimed to recognise and reward people with a story of personal achievement and/or contribution to the local community.

London 2012 Olympic torch relay
The torch will be carried by 7,300 people who were nominated and the remaining 700 will be athletes and celebrities.
The oldest and youngest torchbearers joined gold
medal-winning triple jumper Jonathan Edwards and London Mayor Boris
Johnson at a primary school in east London to mark the detailed route of
the torch relay being released.Diana Gould, 99, who will be 100 by the time she carries the torch in her home area of Barnet, London, said it was "a great honour" to be chosen.
Standing next to her, the youngest bearer Dominic MacGowan, 11, from Birmingham, reflected that the torch was "something for everyone".
Each torchbearer will carry the flame for about 300m and about 110 people will take part each day.
'Absolutely thrilled' Rhyania Blackett-Codrington, 29, from London, is going to carry the torch through the borough of Islington, where she lives.
"I'm absolutely thrilled," she told BBC One's Breakfast, adding that she was nominated for "changing her life round".
"I was a troubled teen and I am now a teacher helping others," she said. She added that she was keen to do a rehearsal of the route holding the torch, but said she was not keen on running with it.
"I'm going to walk very slowly, I'm quite clumsy and I don't want to fall down."
Olympic chief Sebastian Coe also revealed last week that he had been nominated to carry the torch in his home town of Sheffield. He told the BBC's School Report: "For me Sheffield was where all my athletics really happened so that would be the obvious place to be involved."
Another torchbearer will be Dave Jackson, 61, a volunteer coastguard and station officer at Land's End Coastguard Rescue, from Sennen, Cornwall.
He was nominated by his bosses for more than 40 years' service. He served during the 1981 Union Star and Penlee lifeboat disaster, in which 16 people died, including eight volunteer lifeboatmen.
He is part of a team of 12 people on permanent call and also works as supervisor and groundsman at Cornwall's Minack Theatre.
Torchbearer Rhyania Blackett-Codrington: "I'm absolutely thrilled"
He told the BBC that when he first found out he would be running with the torch he thought "'it's a wind-up'".
"You don't expect that sort of thing, do you?
"But the first day of the relay, I know it's in Sennen. If it's hot and sunny, it'll be brilliant. Brilliant for Land's End, Sennen and for Cornwall.
"I think it'll be a case of 'don't drop it'! That'll be going through my mind quite a bit. 'Don't start any fires'.
"It's a great honour to be nominated. I'm born and bred in Cornwall and you can't beat it."
