[Lord Camomile]

You trusted the Olympic flame to a man who lives in the water?! Are you mad??!

 

[Boo Radley75]

Oh, it's the "Sorry, we haven't got much else for this so we'll just pad it out with some highlights of the opening ceremony" part.

 

[bcuster]

What’s with the headless Angel?

 

[A380]

Ooooo great. It’s some old blokes in suits to make some speeches.

 

[magneze]

What’s with the headless Angel?

Secularism

 

[A380]

What’s with the headless Angel?

Nike, get with the programme.

 

[Santino]

Fucking hell.

The headless statue of Nike is kept in The Louvre. It's simultaneously a symbol of Paris and the ancient Olympics. This is basic stuff.

Just do it.

 

[Lord Camomile]

He looks like the French Gareth Southgate.

The translator is cracking me up. He just can’t be arsed with it all.

He’s probably eating a bowl of noodles.

 

[Boo Radley75]

That lectern looks like a broken grave stone, would have been more fitting for Liz Truss, during her time as Prime Minister.

 

[planetgeli]

Are we there yet?

 

[Lord Camomile]

SEINE-sational games!

YES!

 

[A380]

SEINE-sational games!

YES!

I know! my sides!!!

 

[Bingoman]

SEINE-sational games!

YES!

Oh geez that was bad

 

[spitfire]

Need Terry Wogan tbh.

 

[spitfire]

Who is the French bloke? He’s an absolute unit.

 

[Lord Camomile]

Oh geez that was bad

I think it was the most courageous effort we've seen in the entire two weeks

 

[spitfire]

So is the Cuban. Could you imagine trying to wrestle him?

 

[Lord Camomile]

Who is the French bloke? He’s an absolute unit.

Pretty sure it's Teddy Riner, judo champion and national hero. He's 6'8".

 

[A380]

Jesus how much worse can this get?

 

[spitfire]

Pretty sure it's Teddy Riner, judo champion and national hero. He's 6'8".

Thanks.

[spitfire]

Bit rude of those kids to have their headphones in when they are singing.
