A man from Malta has got sunburnt in scotland. This can never have happened before, surely?
Good work the Northern Ireland team. Not a hint of orange in the outfit. 😀
The peeps in the over 70s aerobics class in the background must be knackered by now.
WTF are you wearing?
Hahahahahaha!
Did you see Jimmy Krankie in the green dress?
Scotland are on Aciiiiiid
Here they are...
Though I think the colour balance on my TV must be broken....
The Shamen? Mint!
That's brown tartan looks like a child has shat out some half digested Lego.
310 atheletes. I didn't realise we had that many atheletes.
They really should have got Frankie Boyle to present this programme!
Scottish team look like they've got lost on a club 18-30 pub crawl out there
Scottish outfits are fabulous.
Move any mountain...political message?
A bit more Rod. I think he's got a sore throat.
Rod again? Jeeeeesus. Pass the whisky.
Someone get that man a Locket.
Oooh it's Wodnee!
After a horrendous opening sequence I thought Mylo did pretty well with the live set , some class tunes in there and even a Cameroon Athlete with an Aberdeen Fc hat on. 😀
Rod reminded me of this:
I might donate if it stops Rod Stewart coming back out!

Put your hands in your pockets ya miserable gits - if only for the laugh they gave us.
Where is Alex Salmon when you need him to address the audience? Freeeeedom!
😯
Smartphones flashes are the new lighters.
They should have included the Scotch football team for extra comedy value.... Her Maj getting out of a roller at celtic park followed by God Save The Queen... perfect, thank you glasgow 😀
Violin - Here comes the cultured bit
Ah, finally the wonderful Nicola Benedetti. Was lucky enough to hear her perform with the NY Philharmonic earlier this year. Wonderful violinist and she seems a bonny lass when I've seen her interviewed.
Rod is our McCartney...
Well it's been... interesting... so far.
Not as bad as the closing ceremony at London 2012, but not as good as the London opening ceremony.
But I do like the crowd singing Loch Lomond. A song that when Runrig do it has a line about the Peak District. (Hope, Hope, we're living in Hope)
So does the white flag go in the big [s] hypodermic needle[/s] flagpole in the middle?
Gay and brown people in the stadium nora? I'd imagine a bigoted racist like yourself must be absolutely tumescent with rage, eh?
Oh, and it was a Bentley, you oaf.
Ya, nice smile there from 7 times world squash champion Nicole David

FFS is it still going on? I just flicked over to watch the news after Dirty Harry!

A song about English oppression isn't it? 😆
All of those countries managed to achieved independence so it's Scotland turn now to achieve frrrrreeeedom! Why so late?
😆
No Deacon Blue yet?
Freedom.
Can people not learn their lines?! Reading from cards?! Come on...
Here we go...Salmond
So disappointed, was hoping it would end with the Queen strapped into a wicker man and Alex Salmond dancing about like Christopher Lee with a torch
matther01 - MemberHere we go...Salmond
Stone him because he has forgotten to call out Freeeeeddddooommmm! 😆
A song about English oppression isn't it?
Possibly. But still a fantastically emotional song, preferably sung in a crowd of thousands.
As I understand it it is generally associated with the execution of Jacobites by Hanoverians (not ad is often stated Scots and English - there wee Scots, English welsh and Irish on both sides), but the lyrics are simply an individual who will die soon addressing one who will live for a bit yet. The lyrics do not reference the 1745 although an 1876 poem based on the traditional song was referenced to 1746.
