Let’s hope it’s better than the opening ceremony!

Starts at 7 pm on BBC 1.

Alex Yee will be carrying the GB flag.

Are the Dutch naturally just beautiful? Or just their athletes?

Yes they are annoyingly tall and sportif.

SoManyBadgers · 11/08/2024 20:50

Christ the feedback is painful.

birdsoeking · 11/08/2024 20:50

Can we make our excuses and head to the bar 😂

Andrew Cotter is a hoot.

Yay!! Les Champs Elysees!

Arconialiving · 11/08/2024 20:51

This one is good!

TokyoSushi · 11/08/2024 20:51

Ah, love Les Champs Elysees!

Also love Andrew Cotter!

Is this the French version of Sweet Caroline?

La la la la la

Translates as the the the the the - a true Cotterism. 😂

I still have this stuck in my head from the tennis, it was sung about 3 times a match Grin

ArabellaScott · 11/08/2024 20:51

I hope they do Si Si Je Suis Un Rockstar.

Yes they are annoyingly tall and sportif.

Yes I even noticed it visiting friends at a technical college in the Netherlands!

IcedPurple · 11/08/2024 20:52

This is approaching opening ceremony levels of cringe.

RosieFlamingo · 11/08/2024 20:52

Do organisers do realise the whole world is watching? It's a bit of a shambles.

TellyUsername · 11/08/2024 20:52

Trombolese!

Supergirl1958 · 11/08/2024 20:52

What is in the athlete water bottles that’s what I want to know? 😂😂

it’s the trombolese one! I know that!!

IThinkAdversePossessionApplies · 11/08/2024 20:52

Blimey, it's not exactly a banger, is it? And didn't they test the p.a. system beforehand, it's awful!

birdsoeking · 11/08/2024 20:52

It’s getting a bit boring now.

Andrew Cotter is younger than I was expecting, just had to Google what he looked like 😆

Sounds likely trampoline 😄

Sweetpeasaremadeforbees · 11/08/2024 20:53

I found the OC ..... baffling but the actual games have been brilliant. No hitches and I loved the use of the Grand Palais for sports like Taekwondo. A really well-organised games.

I'm glad the CC is in the stadium, a far better atmosphere, but hopefully it'll be less baffling (to me).

holding out for Claude François. Placing bets on ALexandrie Alexandra

RosieFlamingo · 11/08/2024 20:53
