Olympic Opening ceremony watch along

[Theremedy]

I can’t see a thread yet but please do point me in the right direction if there is one!

Anyone else watching? It’s all kicking off at 6:30pm, apparently with the athletes parade first.

London 2012 OC was remarkable, I’m hoping the French can match that magic!

9 more boats until Ireland

Possibly what’s creating the waves

He's playing tomorrow? If he's got any sense- no.

The giant heads are great

I'm not worrying about the competitors catching cold.

Look at the rain on that piano!

I really wanted to enjoy this but it's so disjointed. And the torch bloke is creepy.

It’s going by French alphabet order, do South Africa is Africa de Sud, hence early in the flotilla.

OMG - Mon Lisa has been nicked!

They're drowning.

Look at the rain beating off the piano!

That piano will be ruined.

This is good revision for the countries rounds in Pointless

But he loves boats Raahh

The piano won’t be by the end ☹️

Can we just have a concert from this pianist please? I'm enjoying him.

Are you watching the same TV as us. This is AWFUL

I hope that's not an electric piano or he's going to get fried.

Jean michelle jarre?

🤣🤣🤣🤣

That poor bloody piano.

Probably knackered it now

Surely the pianos gonna get buggered in that rain?

God this is grim. Missing a Graham Norton commentary imo.

What a pity the weather is so shit. I enjoyed the throng of contemporary dancers earlier, but whoever is playing the piano in the deluge must be cursing. That piao will never be the same agin.

That was my thought as well

Hats off to the pianist - the keys must be so slippery in the rain!
