The Olympics Opening Ceremony

[sp1814]

Is it my imagination, or is it quite bloody amazing?

[bigbadmarty]

its bloody marvellous sp

[Mampara]

It's your imagination!

[hellywelly4]

It looks a complete mess to me!

[invisiblelady]

It is very interesting indeed as someone from these isles. However, from the point of view of anyone else on the planet, I would think it is totally boring. Sorry.

[thenry]

has your top hat slipped over your eyes ?

[hellywelly4]

As they are having to explain to us what it going on, I think it's possible that the rest of the world may be quite lost!

[woofgang]

Watched the first 20 minutes, thought oh get on with it, have gone to bed.

[sp1814]

But it now has James Bond and THE QUEEN!!!!

This so rocks.

[BAKERS DOZEN]

Absolutely brilliant idea. She has a great sense of humour. Loved it.

[kawakiri]

At last a voice of sense, well said SP.

[bushbaby_de]

I don't understand why all the announcements are in French first. Aren't we in England?!

[Prudie]

Only put it on as I thought I ought but so far I'm hooked. It is amazing, the rings coming together brought a lump to my throat. The knockers should switch off.

[sp1814]

Arise Sir Danny Boyle.

You done good.

[kawakiri]

Frenchis the official language of the Olympics.

Exactly what we said in our house. It seemed to go all 'Eurovisiony' there.

[ELVIS68]

Akin to a Hovis advert

Ah! Thanks...

[thenry]

I hope Danny Boyle has a bolt hole. This is the biggest load of shi*e ever presented on the International Screen !

[ChuckFickens]

I want one of those huge bed/trampolines....

I'm also remembering how fantastic mike Oldfield is....

[thenry]

Mary Poppins could save the day !
