It is only today that I have bothered to look at the timing of this pointless ceremony. they have chosen a time when very few children will be able to watch. My 8 and 5 yo grandchildren are very disappointed and my normal day is from 6am to 10 pm so I won,t be watching either. Has rthe time been chosen at the behest of American TV or do they think that the British have become nocturnal. It won't finish until past 1 in the nmorning in the rest of Europe. Crazy.

This is the worst ceremony in history...english men...you are so boring
I never realized there were so many countries beginning with the letter A.
Ruined tonight by a dreadful decision to use you know who as the lead commentator.
God, there are about 20 countries so far that I have never heard of!
You're doing well then m8. I doubt if the commentator has heard of any of them.

So who do u get paid out for for lighting the flame?
I have never witnessed such a pathetic, demeaning and amateurish production in my whole stage career. I can only hope that it will contribute to the end of an ignoble career by who was responsible for this atrocity.
I think the mission statement might have possibly included the word 'inclusivity' don't you?
Really the Arctic Monkeys? Err yeah... errm
Mr fecking Bean?? Why not Benny Hill?
I'm sure in the stadium it was quite spectacular but on TV it left me cold really
apparently I sound exactly like Trevor Nelson. I never knew that
it's a 6.5 / 10 from me

No cuts to the Duke of Edinburgh I notice...no doubt cos he nodded off hours ago
agree with your first sentence there judorick
i'm a bit of a liberal guardian reading lefty myself, but good lord, even to me it came off that they rammed 'diversity' down your throat a bit too much
the Empire Windrush making an appearance
i think the powers that be are trying to tell us something

I thought it was a good representation of Britain.
I loved it, that after all the endless talk about who should light the flame, the job was given to a group of young athletes. It was handled beautifully.
How cool was Becks in the speed boat?
I was very worried watching Steve Redgrave running up the steps. Goodness, what if he'd tripped?
I thought, for the most part, it was excellent 9/10.
(Could've done without Macca, at the end
)

the inclusivity and diversity was heavily handled and clumsily too
even down to the white wife-black husband-mixed race child set up
the producers may think that represents GB but really those kinds of families are a tiny percentage of the total
I'm all for representation but this was all rammed down the throat imo

Had a large proportion of the crowd left before the end or was that an illusion created by the lighting?

Yeah, it was just an illusion created by people still standing and obscuring the 'pixcels'. The place was rammed until the end.
I thought it was great. Daft, irreverant, colourful, artistic and done with a smile on it's face! The torch was a great, great idea.
And to further upset all the miserable feckers out there, 27 million in the UK watched it!
