That's Sir Danny to you...
Pffft, alcohol slowed the coordination...
You can say what you like but Britain produces the best State ceremonies bar none and now this has to be among the most stunning openening ceremonies ever.
Yeah, someones gonna be Sir Danny Boyle soon i reckon.
Doesn't Liz look miserable
Nice red shoes on the Albanian men there 😆
The ceremony has upset Tory MP Aidan 'my friends think Nazi uniforms are cool and when I go to Auschwitz on my atoning PR trip I'll spend the time texting them' Burley; he thinks it's too socialist. 😆
Fairplay Afghanis, they wouldn't have been able to compete a few years ago.
Had the Commentary turned off, what was the significance of the Emily Sanday bit.
I liked it, just wondered if it had any meaning that I had missed.
Was it me or was the cheeky little bastard from Greece walking alongside the flagbearer having a collection in his copper pot?
Aruba ?
Aruba ?? Argentina the war mongering loosers
£10 on borat carrying the Kazakstan flag
Award for the gayest comment so far goes to :

Surprised there haven't been any suicide bombers yet.
Still on the As, I might nip and get a snack...
We are impressed
The lass carrying the Bharanian flag is a shooter Oh how i laughed FFS
very good , i must say im impressed
I've watched many opening ceremonies, mostly for shits & giggles as the commentators have no idea what to say & they're batshit bonkers...
This one is different, it makes sense, it tells stories & makes me glad to be British....(makes me wonder if other ceremonies have this effect on their local population?!)
Well done Danny Boyle, you took on a job where you were always on a hiding to nothing, & you sir have come up trumps.
S**t me, it's now a geography lesson, are there really 205 nations?
Watching Newsnight's coverage, quite good actually
Aruba ?? Argentina the war mongering loosers
Let the ignorance shine through. 😆

Hubby and I just had a mini arguement over Bond and Queen. I insisted it was indeed the real Queen, he said other wise.
I win 'coz not only was it the real James Bond, it was the real Queen.
Laughed my socks orf when she jumped.
Czechs expecting a mudfest perhaps?
Wellies and brollies - you taking the pi55...?! 😉
Flag bearers are struggling in the still air this evening. Best struggle so far was the Belgian.

Well I enjoyed it. Quirky, surreal and original. Bit like the British really. 🙂
brilliant opening Mr Boyle, pity our track and field team are in Portugal.
