Olympics expected to have boosted UK GDP

Figures for the UK economy due on Thursday morning are expected to show growth after nine months of recession.

Gross domestic product (GDP) figures, measuring the value of everything produced in the economy in the three months from July to September, will have been boosted by the Olympic Games.

Ticket sales for the Olympics and Paralympics will be included.
