They need to stop using the wide angle lens as the whole place is just empty. It's like the sets got stuck in customs and they're just making do in one corner with the local scout group....
Has anything been deep fried yet?
Seems that every other cliché has been hit already.
No proclaimers, I is disappoint
Well they mullered 500 miles...
There'd better be a bit of Deacon Blue!
crowd wanted something a bit nore lively there and didn't get it haha
the seats are empty cos they wanted 200 quid for them!!!
Has anything been deep fried yet?
Possibly that's what happened to all the sets and actors and they combusted, hence the utterly sparse display we see before us...

That's one month's benefit! FFS!
Glasgow looks like it is worth a visit.
oh and a proper cyclist.
Seems that every other cliché
And no better man to think of another...
Any Brigadoon yet?
Well its keeping the wife quiet in the other room while I cool down with a beer after tonight's very hot & sweaty ride.
So its OK in my opinion 😉

Bin done.
Oh dear ... my eyes my eyes ... I have spotted some colourful deep fried Mars eaters. 😆
I've not seen it all, but from the bits I'm catching it seems to be a lot more human than I was expecting.
I'm glad they've not just tried to do a lower budget copy of the Olympics, I like it.
Somebodies been at the buckie to come up with this shite
Couldn't they at least have found some attractive women?
(They could have bussed some in from Newcastle!)
Wtf are the chairs all about
They should have had some big tunes like Manc 2002.
Getting Stevie Redgrave to open it in one of David Byrne's old jackets was a brave move. 🙂
Will there be "braveheart" enactment?
😆
Shite
mmmhhhh the red arrows turning the sky above parkhead red white and blue!!..........the locals will not be happy
So pleased I started this thread! Not sure if I'm pissing myself more at the replies or the ceremony. Near wet myself with the red arrows comment
At least they've stopped ****ing dancing around.
This is where you get a sense of the informality of the welcome
Huw, when your bored if reading the news you can start a new job as a spin doctor. Brilliant!
Celtic park doesn't help even with a mega screen!!!
No Ewan, I'm not enjoying it.

Will there be "braveheart" enactment?
We can only hope.
Fingers ,toes and eyes crossed.

You can help people in Scotland learn basic skills, like singing, dancing and sitting on chairs. Please give whatever you can, this is a historic opportunity to help these people and end their suffering...
Worse even than the Olympics opening ceremony???
poor so far
I'm very, very sorry.
I was at the rehearsal, and I didn't warn any of you.
I'm so sorry.
Having worked with big screens in the past, I have to pay say, that screen is astonishing. Brilliant in fact.
The rest of it, however?
Did Alec S really say, with any real conviction, that this was going to be better than London 2012? Hahahahahahahaha. Ha.
I'm very, very sorry.I was at the rehearsal, and I didn't warn any of you.
I'm so sorry.
**** you
The ceremony is so much better with the STW online commentary here - can the BBC not set it as a red button special feature?
Actually, the Calvin Harris remix was pretty good for real, but the commentators kept talking over it.
Guess I chose the wrong night to start taking acid.
anyone else think the "Come on in....." bit sounds like the Price is right TV show?? "Come on down..india!"
