Every flag bearer at Winter Olympics 2018 opening ceremony

1/45
Richard Parry9 February 2018

Lizzy Yarnold, Skeleton gold winner at the Sochi games in 2014, was named Team GB’s flag bearer earlier this week, and she will lead the 58-strong Great British squad out at today’s Parade of Nations.

Yarnold said: "It's really exciting and the opening ceremony is the start of something that I know from Sochi will be the biggest two weeks of my life."

The theme for the ceremony in South Korea is peace - a fitting topic seeing as North and South Korea have agreed to march under one flag in the ceremony.

93 flags will be held aloft in Pyeongchang, and here’s the complete list of flag bearers…
