Good gawd alive this is awful. For all of the rich French history in the arts, music and technology, and we get this bollocks. And every single person that is attending is holding up a phone too 🙁
He’s fighting off a couple of soldiers then jumping off a cathedral into a cart full of hay.
Be awful if he accidentally set fire to the Notre Dame.
How long will her arm last!!
Nice to see Team GB treating this with the respect it deserves 😀

That's France's version of Penny 'The Sword' Mordaunt. She'll have a bicep like a teenage boy who's found the password to the router settings.
The Olympic flame has to be on the top of the Eiffel Tower, right?
I do love the logo also.
Any reason why Paris is all capitals apart from the i? PARiS
They could.but the flame on top of Mordor and it still whouldn't save this shower of
I’m not sure about the logo - the idea is there, but the execution feels a bit clip art.
And she doesn’t have a beard.
Did the rain extinguish the flame so they've had to get another one? He's got a lot to say.
Jesus, grandad is droning on a bit
I admire the sentiment but I doubt this is actually going to deliver world peace
Mrs Binners just said
What did you do at the Olympics? Well I was a high jumper but I ended up holding an umbrella up over a bloke making a speech for 20 minutes until I got cramp and then tweaked a muscle so I couldn’t compete in the end
I was just wondering whether being the umbrella bearer or the flag bearer is more prestigious?
It will drown any opposition
ZiZi? Is Wayne Rooney going to come on and Meg him?
Very disappointing for him not to stick the head on someone
It had a strobe warning but it needed a gammon trigger warning too. So far we've had an implied bisexual threesome, male couples, drag queens a blue smurf in a posing pouch and they've given an award to a fella that looks after refugees.
They are Jean Michel Jarre-ing the shit out of it now
If you've got an Eiffelt tower you may as well use it.....
if it catches Venus's extensions there'll be trouble.
But where’s the bloody flame going?
Notre Dame
But where’s the bloody flame going?
<Farage> Folkestone . Turns out we have to host and pay for it. </Farage>
Been some belting tunes throughout but not heard any Daft Punk yet!?
The Eiffel Tower laser show is pretty damn good!
It was for the first 20 minutes yes. Beginning to grow a bit repetitive. Get the bloody torch lit!
I’m afraid 30 minutes of first class lasers does not equal even 5 minutes of a decent county council fireworks display let alone London 2012
That flame wasn’t transferred!
Lance Armstrong get that flame lit.
Get the bloody torch lit!
I thought that 20 minutes ago, got bored and I've now gone to bed.
Eternity
You said it.
Never get off the boat……
If there isn’t a tiger now, I’m turning it off
Have just come in from the pub and now watching half arsed BMX, skaters and break dancers slithering around on piss wet through ramps who must be wondering how they'd sold out and got involved in this shit.
They should have kept the Tdf final stage into Paris and had Pogi with a flaming bike coming down the champs elysee.
Can we have another go at knighting Danny Boyle? This is making me realise what a good job he did.
I thought they were going to push the guy in the wheelchair into the cauldron
Love the way they're pretending they didn't know where it was, given it's the size of a small planet
My wife keeps asking me questions about what is going on, sorry sweetie not got a clue!
I think they’ve actually broken the space/time continuum
Its now October
Wonder who's garden that balloon will end up?
