Will be totally forgotten about in afew days these ceromonies are by en large a hideos marathon of bilge.
Good to see they had to give 1000's of tickets away...£10.000 for a ticket  mr arse!All in all it was decent for it's type. One thing that comes to light in these events though is our seemingly total and utter lack of high class presenters? the likes of Linekar and Barker are very lightweight and what in the name of tokenism was Trevor "is it because" Nelson doing there? I was half expecting Garth to be given arole |

I really loved it apart from the bit after the teams walked on (Macca, Arctic Monkeys etc)

the whole thing reeked of the politically correct ideology which says:
"we are all really well integrated and multi-culturalism is a really good... just look how lovely it is and anyone who does not think so is an ignorant, poor, racist pleb whose values and opinions are so beneath contempt to not being even worth discussing..." it was a good show but I resent having someone elses views rammed down my throat especially when it's being done by a bunch of super wealthy, hand wringing luvvies with a guilt complex |

Shami Chakrabarti carrying the Olympic flag was an obvious highlight She was holding that so that a sniper couldn't get a clear shot Was Flabbot there? It's not that far from her house |

First 25 minutes were good. Bond/Queen skit was fun. Mr Bean's appearance was a laugh.
Trevor Nelson was awful. He actually said "My niece (or was it cousin?) is in there somewhere" during the NHS routine (which was nauseating). Who cares mate? Didn't care much for the music part |

28 Jul 12 22:16 just reminded on the news - the young kid singing Jerusalem solo was superb. He was in the English choir, you can tell that by the number of grevilles seated around him Look at the Scots, Irish and Welsh choirs for a comparison |
