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.

It will probably have cheerleaders!

Could even have Cheer as an Olympic event!

He's had a long walk.

Is it me or does he walk funny?

I'd walk funny after a 3 hour walk.

Surprised not to see Megz and Harry out representing California for LA28

Oh you can be sure they'll be rocking up everywhere in LA28 😆

in Beijing it was just a red bus driving round with a couple of songs wasn’t it?

this feels a bit ‘plug your latest single’

Red double decker, which had Leona Lewis singing and Jimmy Page playing guitar, with Beckham kicking a ball into the crowd.

Icons of London.

RealHousewivesOfTaunton · 11/08/2024 22:59

I enjoyed Snoop Dogg moonlighting as Olympic Wonka. It's the The World Does Eurovision.

RedToothBrush · 11/08/2024 22:59

Leon you can relax now. You didn't blow it out by accident on the way.

Willmafrockfit · 11/08/2024 23:00

wonder why they dont have Paralympics immediately afterwards

Yeah he did but luckily he managed to cadge a light off someone walking past

It must be quite a bittersweet night for Tony. Relieved that it's all gone well, but sad that it's over.

I'd be happy to console him, in person. I'm generous like that.

Halsall · 11/08/2024 23:00

Blimey. I gave up eventually with the Bad Gateway, saw Tony, washed the dishes, tidied round, came to bed - and it’s still bloody going!

I missed teeny tiny Tom and all the rest.

Off you pop, Thomas. Byeee. Don't let the door hit you on your way out.

JewelleryCat · 11/08/2024 23:00

Nice to see some of the Paralympians

Didn't that wanker BoJo come down in a harness or something and spaff on about piffpaffball or whatnot?

DollopOfFun · 11/08/2024 23:01

I'm so annoyed, this time last week (literally) I was on Venice Beach. Bu it was mainly stoners and Buddhist monks.

I wonder why they just don’t have them AT the same time - all events mixed together like at the commonwealth games

They have to set up the village again and sort the venues so appropriate etc

Wasn’t that some event before/during the games?

Edited

Won’t we see him in the Paralympic ceremony? I thought he was president of that too

So Billie was the most entertaining for the closing ceremony. She is so talented and my granddaughter was born with her voice in the background..relaxing and easy listening.

tobee · 11/08/2024 23:02

I have such good memories of LA 1984! Just finished my o levels and hot summer sitting outside the pub every night and then going home and staying up all night watching the Olympics in my bedroom on my parents' tiny black and white portable tv and waking up and it was still going!

Arconialiving · 11/08/2024 23:02

Please let this now be the end!

WhitesAndStripes · 11/08/2024 23:02

Wow, she's in full mourning dress.

I don't remember. Unfortunately only the sight of him in the harness is etched onto my brain forevermore.
