What's the real impact of the Olympics Games on the cities that host them?
Now that London has won the bid to hold the 2012 Olympics it can expect not only the prestige of hosting the largest sporting event in the world, but also a legacy of benefits that will remain long after the cheers have faded.
But is it always that straightforward? In a programme broadcast in May 2005 we return to Athens, where last year鈥檚 Games have left behind dramatic improvements to the capital鈥檚 infrastructure, but also a large collection of semi-redundant venues and an enormous burden of debt for the Greek people to shoulder.
