Olympics Closing Ceremony

[birdsoeking]

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.

France are being prudes for once?

Music was so electric produced not quite sure why we needed a classical orchestra and conductor.

Just wishing Fit Tony will turn up.

Brigitte Macron never looks like she is enjoying herself. It seems a pity.

Interesting, every day is a school day

Just spotted Tony 😍 sitting next to Madame Macron

Because she's a predator and knows she shouldn't be on the world stage.

The trainers - it feels a bit too try hard modern somehow? My teenagers have found a lot of it cringe!!
shame Emmanuel didn’t parachute in

The music is beautiful

Nothing beats this version

Did they rotate olympic flag?

The orchestre divertimento is based in a rough suburb north of Paris. The conductor Zahia Ziouani is an absolute inspiration. Brilliant woman <3

I saw him! Two along from Macron.

I bet they checked that about 12 times.

I hope they still got it wrong.

Thanks @ArabellaScott will keep my eyes peeled

He just has. Next to Brigitte Macron 😁

I'm loving the music.

It's okay, but I swear I just heard the Countdown theme fade in and out.

I love French music. I hope we get to hear it in all it's glory tonight.

@GrouchyKiwi 😂😂

This orchestra is so beautiful! Love an orchestra!

The music is lovely, I would also have been happy if the woman who sang the anthem at the opening ceremony had sung again, she was a highlight.

Suddenly remembered mn!!! Almost bereft this Olympics is over- it was a standout for me and gave me a list of escapism from real life crap. Wonder when TC is doing his stunt?!

I love a crowd shot when they realise they are being filmed..." oooh look, we're on the telly!"

They must be planning something because the light levels are now so low and Claire Balding said they were told to turn their commentary booth lights off

Flags are here

Who is fit Tony?
