Yeah, spot on. It's a damn good celebration of what we've got to be proud of.
 
typical over the top british dramatics. Now theres gonna be nothing for the royal variety later on.

Gotta love the queens "Yes clap me Biatches" face like a boss

True, what is it costing again?

As for our Joe, it is VERY slightly better than any brother analogue!

Not by a long shot ... and frankly we sit here in 42C enjoying it.

There was the one statement by the commentator that's caught my thought, something along the lines ... "you're not a civilised nation unless you can provide equal healthcare even to those without means" ... loved it, made us (my family and I) discuss how apt that is, and got us thinking about countries like USA :shake:

Just looking for my mate. He's in the chin of the acid face!

They need to show more stadium shots, those pixel images are cool.

Prodigy!
 
I for one think its better than the eurovision song contest

Well there is always the official olympics grumpy thread if you don't like this one :p


Me, been very anti-olympics until this week, when Paul Sinha said 'look, we are paying for it, might as well make the most of it and enjoy it' - so you know what, he's right and I will! :woot:
 
Come on you irons !! Is it prophetic ?

Without the commentator, would you have got it?
 
I think that some of the 3d Work has been very impressive. We have enjoyed it so far but could imagine it looses something in 2d.
 
Rowan Atkinson............................what a great idea.

It is fun but I am far more of a fan of Olympic competition than the froth that'll be forgotten by next week
