BBC 1 ...right, that's done...
.
Gary Lineker, Hazel Irvine and Clare Balding present live coverage from Celtic Park, Glasgow, in a ceremony which will feature more than 3,000 volunteers to mark the end of the Queen's Baton Relay and the official opening of the Games by the Queen herself. A spectacular and colourful curtain-raiser is expected as Scotland celebrates hosting the event for the third time, and Glasgow for the first, while competitors from 71 nations enter the arena in the Parade of Athletes, which marks the start of 11 days of competition. Huw Edwards joins Irvine in the commentary box.

aren't they just the average cricket scores in the last 4 years?
maybe someone could find the right figures as wiki is def not correct.
Great ceremony this. Southern pooftas sitting in their piss stained y fronts crying in to their beef Space Raiders that Spice Girls haven't been on yet.
It's a load of pomp and ceremony just for a group of folks who run around a bit.
Jonathan Watson on now doing one of his sh1tty impersonations 
Council pen pusher loving it on VIP tickets. Feckin freeloader.

Primal Scream would appear to be this year's Sir Paul McCartney.
They haven't even shown up live though. Obviously two years notice not good enough for them.

I'm not bothering to read the thread, and didn't watch any of it.

President of Games Committee couldn't open batton to get message out for near 2 mins to give to Queen
Thought that was a pretty good opening ceremony, apart from
the first 10 or 15 min., would have been excellent. Rebecca Adlington
is a natural, veryattractive personality.

@lfc
Agree with what you said about Rebecca. Very likeable and despite what FB said very attractive as well.
John Barrowman and Karen Dunbar should be told to leave Scotland and never return, they were embarrassing.

I thought it was pretty good, I only saw the first hour or so, I recorded the rest. I was very tired last night and had a busy day to get through today.
So, from reading through this thread, it doesn't seem like The Proclaimers were on?
Loved Amy Macdonald and Rod Stewart. Rod is 69
Thought Subo was going to bottle it when she started but she was alright.
