Winter Olympics - Opening Ceremony this evening

[Silverbirchleaf]

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

deux point for the giant heads

We’re getting a science lesson now.

Where they are all called "Prince Barry" and have terribly stilted English accents.

I loved him as Robin Hood ❤️

Oooh nice jellyfish!

I have to say the stage has worked really well. Great design.

I am loving the cross-topic posting to the point that I feel this committee missed a trick by not including the Wurzels.

This is definitely big budget.

Saturday evening telly at it's finest. He was gorgeous.

Did you know there is a model of Rafa made out of Roland Garros clay in the Rafa museum in Majorca?

Oh that is quite special

<books next holiday>

they've all had stitches at the vet

Tis true!! 😁

Do it.

The solar system dancers are pretty.

Is it better than the Cristiano Ronaldo one in Funchal?

Oh, compulsory child filled with wonder slot.

I'm coming....

There’s more… I thought with the oath we were at the end. Bit weird to introduce a space theme now. Nice music though.

Oooh, here comes the flame. Again.

Wow nice shot there.

Just light the damn flame ffs.

Of course. I wouldn’t go without you.

I mean, this is lovely but it’s no David Beckham on a speedboat is it?

Child with wonder! It happens at every Olympics.
Two flames! 🔥
