Winter Olympics - Opening Ceremony this evening

[Silverbirchleaf]

Opening ceremony tonight, from 6.30pm on BBC2. Surprised it’s not on BBC1.

I like the retro look of the French

French coats unforgiving

I'd rather no one was booing anyone. Isn't the whole point that it's not about that?

French team been on the génépy since 5.

Italy gets the good music, as it should.

Next countries hosting?

Don't do yourself an injury italy

Italian outfits are horrible. Vile colour

Hope Italy have brought a good coat game

They were the previous , and future , Olympic hosts.

But it’s Armani!

Aaaah!

Previous country (France), next country (USA).

Is all of Italy in the Olympic team?

Oh they have not.

Ah man what a moment for them. I'm smiling!

So much for Italy being a centre for chic fashion. Winston Churchill used to wear something like that, it was called a siren suit. Don’t ask how I know this, there is a possibility that I wore something similar when I was very small.

Great music 😂

Go Italy ! They do look so happy

Thanks!

Italians rocking the Alpine municipal police officer look.

Those outfits though! So unflattering

Yes!

Dad-dancing with the scarf there. I love it.

I find the piggy backs really hard to see after the events of January. I’m sure it’s just me, but it gives me pause.
