Paul frikkin MaCartney at the closing ceremony 😉
Duran Duran to play Rio odds on!!!
I'll second that.
He's a great way to clear/empty a stadium though............
(only bettered by Cliff Richard IMHO)
If Annie Lennox is there I'm getting me a gun.
The roster is pretty dire: Spice Hags, Take That, Queen, Annie Lennox, Muse...
Pet Shop Boys though, on the plus side.
Any Level 42?
Think of it as a Daily Telegraph take on the Eurovision Song Contest, and you won't go far wrong.
nowt wrong with Muse.
As long as Phil Collins and Sade are there it'll be grand.
nowt wrong with Muse.
I imagine they'd be really good if you wanted to scare birds off your crops.
Not my cup of tea though.
for gods sake not mcCartney again.....irritating beyond belief. anyone but him.
I thought after all the subtle Boyle film references in the opening ceremony they were going to have another movie homage (while presaging the para-olympics) and make the closing ceremony 127 hours long
No "the Orrioble oo"?
Er, don't watch it, then? Is your TV stuck on one channel or something?

That's a pisspoor substitute to sucking up the whole thing while tutting at the screen, though.
Old person falling over TV innit? (like car crash TV but quieter).
Er, don't watch it, then?
Where's the fun in that.
I think the spice girls/women... are due to make an apperance.
Just seen that Trevor Nelson's on the commentary team again.
Did they not see the Opening ceremony?
They didn't give him his own mic
I actually LIKE Macca.
Seriously.
Obviously he's a bit passed it, but it's like sprouts at Christmas, just wouldn't be the same without.
Muse are good, love Queen, Pet Shop Boys and Annie Lennox I can cope with, but Duran Duran?
LeBon couldn't carry a tune in a bucket 20 years ago and aren't the rest of them all in rehab?
And the Spice Girls? Really?
Should have had the Pistols, New Order, The Prodigy, Maiden, and the Roses. Surely a line up to be proud of. 😀
Who singing with queen tonight then. I'm praying it George
Please tell me they're not wheeling out that self indulgent, wig wearing bell end Elton John. . .
Looking forward to seeing Motorhead!
They are on... aren't they? Best of British and all that?
Looking forward to PSBs and Spice Girls - love a bit of pop, me.
Who singing with queen tonight then. I'm praying it George
wonder if hes driving there
i'm hoping Rolf Harris gets to lead the stadium through an 'a Capella' rendition of 2-little-boys.
halfway through, the big screens will show lenny henry, drugged bound and gagged. and then fade to black as the crowd continue to sing.
fingers crossed...
wonder if hes driving there
Fingers crossed!
Watch bbc 2 at 9pm then,pumas in patagonia,whats not to like.Have you only one channel.
Thank **** Top Gun's just starting!
Iconic London scenes to start with - including a traffic jam.
I wish I was at home so I could swear at the telly and then storm out of the room.
Did they just call Harry - Henry?????? 😯
Prince Henry of Wales is in it!
Prince Henry!
Yep, and it came up on screen as HRH Prince Henry of Wales
Michael Caine!
Madness!
Wooo!
Thats because thats his name 😉
Madness COOL
Sounds a bit duff though 👿
you left out del and rodney.....double wooooo
Remember how refreshing the opening ceremony was because of the lack of cliches...
What Henry?
all a bit flat so far
Madness No, kill me now
Guardsmen playing Blur.
That's a win!
Madness. Quit now. Awful.
