"Our athletes are an inspiration to us all," says Prince Harry as the video features clips from the 2012 London Olympics, with some of the most notable medalists including Jessica Ennis, Tom Daley and Mo Farah.

He continues, "we need the whole country to get behind them and cheer them on as they take to the world stage."

This year 366 British athletes will compete across 23 sports as Team GB.

"London 2012 showcased the best of British sport, and we are all so excited to see what can be achieved in Rio," says the Duchess of Cambridge.

As the video ends Prince Harry leaves us with the statement, "Let's top 2012. Bring on the Great."
