Lord Sebastian Coe headed the successful bid to host the 2012 Summer Olympics and Paralympics, before becoming chair of the London Organising Committee for the Games.
In Singapore in 2005, he gave a stirring speech to the International Olympic Committee promising not only an Olympic Park, containing nine state-of-the-art venues and just seven minutes from central London, but also a lasting legacy.
The Olympic Delivery Authority (ODA) built the Park in Stratford, Lord Coe and his team put on the world's greatest show during the summer of 2012, and the London Legacy Development Corporation has regenerated, redeveloped and created an innovative metropolitan area of London, with a global focus. The permanent venues - including London Stadium, the London Aquatics Centre, the Copper Box Arena and Lee Valley VeloPark - now sit alongside two business districts, quality homes and neighbourhoods, schools, universities and cultural centres.
Ten years on from 2012, this episode of the podcast is Seb Coe's London Legacy.
