Flames have been lit on Britain's highest peaks to launch the Paralympic Games torch relay. The first of the four was lit on Slieve Donard in Northern Ireland. Ceremonies have also taken place in Scotland, Wales and England. Four teams scaled the highest peaks of the home countries to spark the flames which will come together at Stoke Mandeville on Tuesday. The Games start the following day.The flames are being carried down in lanterns ahead of celebrations in London, Edinburgh, Cardiff and Belfast over the Bank Holiday weekend. A 24-hour relay will leave Stoke Mandeville, the spiritual home of the Games, to arrive in Stratford in time for the opening ceremony in London.
