    Not much of a goer then?

    Started watching the beginning and found out a bit odd that there dashing central focal point….

    Then got invited to a party by a load of Italians. By the comments I’m guessing I lucked out.

    The model horse galloping down the Seine is kind of cool.

    Still needs more sharks.

    I switched to the international feed without commentary. It was much improved by not knowing wtf is going on.

    There were symbolic winged cyclist doves at London 2012? I wonder what that must have been like!

    This is more like what I expected. A piano on fire for no reason during a, to be fair, lovely version of Imagine, followed by a lost member of the 4 Horsemen of the Apocalypse galloping randomly down the Seine for a bit too long. Much better.
    Or maybe its the wine. French, St Emilion, of course.

    Please tell me the flame is going to be on top of the Tower. That would be good.

    You just know that somewhere near a deserted river in Northern France a couple of dog walkers who spent the last few weeks convinced they saw a ghost horse galloping by are going ahhhhhh so THATS what it was…

    The disco dancing sections reminded me of David Brent in The Office.

    There is going to be a furore when video emerges of that horse’s training.

    So the flag on the horse on the river was not the one in this bit…..

    Looks like they’ve done it in a car park…. Could they not get rid of the road markings FFS.

    What’s happened to the masked figure with the torch?

    Admittedly I dropped out of this a couple of hours ago and watched a Jason Statham film which was less nonsensical than this so forgive me if I’ve missed anything.

    He’s fighting off a couple of soldiers then jumping off a cathedral into a cart full of hay.

    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 🙁

    Be awful if he accidentally set fire to the Notre Dame.

    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.

    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’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.

    I admire the sentiment but I doubt this is actually going to deliver world peace

    I was just wondering whether being the umbrella bearer or the flag bearer is more prestigious?
