Gillian had the honour of carrying the Olympic Torch in Randwick on 14 September 2000. All dolled up in her official Torch Relay gear, she anxiously waits on her scooter for the Torch to reach her starting position.
At the Randwick Town hall after her leg of the Relay, Gillian hands on the Olympic Flame to the next runner - Jim Kelly. To transfer the flame they hold their torches together in an "Olympic Kiss".

After the run, Gillian meets up with her friends. (L to R) Peter Garde, Anna McGee, Gillian Thomas, Alice Smart, Merle Thompson. The Network's colourful T-shirts were out in force that day.
