Olympic opening ceremony as "leftie multi-cultural crap"

[jerney]

I'm watching BBC World News on a daily basis.

All that i see are Indian/Pakistani presenters!


What the fuck is going on with you Brits?


Are you trying to make kebab your national food instead of fish and chips?

Criterioh and I thought the same thing. They're either Indian/Pakistani, Middle Eastern, black, or mixed race.

The opening ceromony was really good. I liked the beginning with the medieval villagers theme, then the industrial revolution and other music eras. It was moving. The smelting of a ring was brilliant. I was impressed by it and found the work done by people behind that should be appreciated. It won't suit everyone's tastes.

^^^ Liked the smelting part also & mr Bean.

I'm not a great fan of opening ceremonies but decided to watch this one because I have a few friends taking the piss out of me for my cynical attitude to "London's Olympics"

I was pleasantly surprised although I heard and understood the criticism of the leftist production. As for selling London by the pound it did a good job. The Queen has a sense of humour and Mr Bean is pure comic genius. Jacques complimented us through gritted teeth and Lord Coe was as pompous as ever.
The music however was the high point. Song after song reminded me of the huge and varied talent produced over decades by the UK.Shame that Paul had to be trotted out again and I still don't get the Arctic Monkies even though I took the trouble to listen to the latest album three times over a few months ago...under duress

Forget the fact that it was ever so slightly multicultural and just rejoice in the fact that we're still a little quirky and eccentric

^^^ Mr bean day dreaming as he came back off the video was the greatest. Him playing the one note.

I meant no offense to British members. The last part of the ceremony was spectacular. The first part was convoluted and creepy, though, especially the portion that celebrated your health care system. Maybe Andrew Lloyd Webber would have done a better job.

I presume that you got the running commentary explaining everthing blow by blow. It was deep and in need of explanation even to UK residents.

You're wrong about Lord Lloyd Webber, he's pants

I hate when people mix politics with sports.
