Commonwealth Games Opening Ceremony come on Brummies!!

[Punkypinky]

I'm tuned in. Loved that poem on the more uncomfortable things about the 'commonwealth' . Loads of colour from the presenters outfits. Anyone else watching?

I can't make head nor tail of what's supposed to be happening.
Only good thing was seeing Camilla clutching her shawl/throw - I would have thought that some lackey would have been nearby to give it to her when she got cold.

It's a load of crap so far

Although there is a lot of people nd a lot going on it still feel a bit empty, they dont seem to fill the space. And I'm pretty sure Brum didn't invent the lemon.

What is going on??? Is it Alan Carr singing???
my eyes 🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤨

I can see Andrew rolling his eyes from here 😁

The miming is bad.
I'm just glad I don't have to actually sit there in the cold and watch it !

I think it’s very unique! Considering it’s budget would be a fraction the Olympic opening ceremony. There’s a lot going on!

The bull is cool.

Wow that bull

The Bull is the best bit so far.

I admit that the bull is cool

The bull is great. Genuinely good puppet work

Lofty aims 🤣🤣

bull best bit

The bull should have stayed !

Liking the bull, but the rest has been tacky and a bit of a mess tbh

Bit west side story!

Lol at dance off

I'm enjoying it. But I'm local, got lots of my mates in it and the destroyers are a fave band of mine so...

Sorry ! It's livened up now the bull has arrived !
I was a bit harsh earlier on

That bull ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Unnecessary and twee story, too many little bits going on. The bull, some resounding music from Elgar, black sabbath, ELo and some spectacular fireworks - done.
All too arty farty, disjointed and try hard for me.

I love the athletes' entrance.

Enjoying it but Josiah Wedgwood deffo not a Brummie!

Not ashamed to say I cried when the depiction of the Bull being hurt by the fighting between the different culture's.

I loved the Bull

The giant Bull stole the show !
Really great
