BBC Sport's Olympics Coverage - Meet Monkey

Keeping with the Olympics theme, Monkey and his friends above are the faces of the BBC's coverage of the 2008 Beijing Olympics. The promos and music were created by the guys behind the Gorillaz - Damon Albarn and Jamie Hewlett, based on their stage play "Journey to the West", adapted from a classic Chinese folktale of the same name.

Check out the short animated sequence below, where Monkey, Pigsy and Sandy head on a "Journey to the East" for BBC Sport this summer:
