Olympics opening ceremony: poor España

G'night.

Night, night almost right.

[MarillionFan]

I wonder how many people get mugged, murdered and stranded because the Tube stations close in the next 40 minutes.

[Gentile]

I don't usually like these things, but that was pretty good - well done, chaps.

Goodnight all.

[Pondlife]

Missed it. Any good?

Just caught the start of Hey Jude. I assume the rest went a bit better?

The part up until the athletes arrived was the best.

We don't get to see that bit. Where they get turfed out of the stadium into the middle of the night to make their way home to their dreary lives not much like that portrayed. And that's just the monarchy, no more parachuting out of planes for her tonight.

FFS the tubes, trains, and buses are all STILL OPERATING.

London is Partying! c'mon..

WFMWABP I have never seen anyone so bored as the queen watching the opening.

All in all, I think it was a damned good show. Certainly not the embarrassment many were fearing.
