The Closing Ceremony

[Minnie_the_Minx]

Can't BBC switch over to the concert in Hyde Park

 

[harpo]

They're on for too long.

 

[blairsh]

The guy singing reminds me of Ricky Gervais

 

[Bungle73]

Was that someone shouting "Libya!"?

 

[OneStrike]

And I thought I was the most out of touch person ever.

Just for clarity, .. nvm

 

[DexterTCN]

usa! usa! wooo usa!...thank you england!

sigh

 

[spirals]

This thread is more entertaining than the actual ceremony!

 

[Lord Camomile]

Are Elbow playing live coz they haven't shown them have they?

A few times they have.

 

[free spirit]

I just realised they'd made the whole middle into a union jack filled with athletes

 

[bi0boy]

Maybe this is designed for a foreign audience and they'll all love it.

 

[kittyP]

A few times they have.

Hmm missed em then.

 

[free spirit]

oh ffs they've already played this one. It is a sodding wedding DJ.

 

[Firky]

Bring on Muse.

Are they playing? At least they have some teeth to their music.

 

[quimcunx]

Sneaky. Mwah ha ha.

 

[harpo]

What kind of disjointed bollox is this? Is it finished now or what?

 

[twentythreedom]

our house again?? wtmff

 

[Libertad]

I wish Hazel Irving would stfu.

 

[DexterTCN]

Elbow? I thought Jonny Vegas had grabbed the mic.

 

[littlebabyjesus]

Fuck me this is bland.

 

[xes]

worse.dj.ever

 

[agricola]

Some guy has Louise Hazel sat on him, and my envy levels have gone through the roof.

 

[Firky]

oh ffs they've already played this one. It is a sodding wedding DJ.

((((dubversion))))

 

[xes]

parklife again aswell ffs!

 

[kittyP]

Are they playing? At least they have some teeth to their music.

I don't think so.
Would be an improvement.

Like quoggy said though, looks good for the athletes (gawd bless em) and the spectators, but not so geared to telly as the opening.

 

[quimcunx]

I want to see drunk athletes performing lewd acts with their holiday shags.

 

[twentythreedom]

someone's fucked up on the mixing desk, playing the backing track twice

 

[free spirit]

the tape has properly got stuck now. This is actually embarrassing.

 

[Firky]

Am going to email that Billy Elliot guy and call him a wanker on behalf of Britain.

 

[han]

Park life AGAIN! Christ wept.

Of course not. All the best bits are still to come
