An hour of robohorse walking down the Seine

Thank you.

Heading across the channel to a beach in Kent

I have never heard of this guy, but good for him!

The worst opening ceremony ever. A mid sized Local Authority would have done better. Soooo dull and lacking in any panache and surprise. Even the robot horse was so obviously held up by a barge. And now a prize for some refugee fella.

She’s probably stil parcouring her way across the rooves with the flame.

part three!

Oh come on, the refugee team is a very good thing.

Lobbing scimitars about as a foundarion for governemnt?

The BBC are actually doing a very poor job of explaining this to us. Surely they were briefed?

And a blue Smurf and a firey piano.

I'm really looking forward to the National Fireworks Championships in August.

In Britain.

Big thank-you to the poster whose French friend explained it's supposed to be a big fuck you to Marine le Pen.

With that in mind the whole thing is understandable.

Still shit, but explicable.

Oh my god 🤣 Hilarious

I liked the Robohorse, but it did go on a bit. Was clever.
Disco was my favorite bit though !
Overall it's been entertaining if a bit bonkers
Certainly different

Needs more graham Norton in eurovision mode

I mean the French love an asylum
seeker eh …?!

Yes that’s what I said, who shaved Papa Smurf!!🤣🤣

This.

Oh, these people get umbrellas!
