Wow I'm cringing.
London 2012- Closing Ceremony
- Thread starter Nick 0208 Ldn
- Start date
I can't imagine she's prepared to put up with a another few hours of the same shit.
She's probably having an early night with Phil the Greek...
Please tell me Will.I.Am's not playing tonight
Our opening and closing ceremonies have lacked class.
Anyone get the impression that both our opening and closing ceremonies have really lacked any class what so ever. Most tacky. However, at least the games went really well.

aaaaahhhhhh, my ears!
The acoustics are dreadful.
To be fair, Danny Boyle wasn't directing this one
I hate to mention this, but is there anyone involved in this that isn't white?
Since when did Madness stop singing in tune?

They've gone the cheesy, fun, tongue in cheek route.
Just a shame everything sounds terrible. Really could have done with figuring out the acoustics/audio here.

I don't know about a lack of class. A little tacky, maybe but it's been very much about Britain. I don't think that's anything to be ashamed of, despite my initial reservations.
It looks great...when you put it to mute and look at it from afar.
WTF is going on.
Probably too much to have asked Danny Boyle to do both ceremonies
That is amazing.. Prince Henry? never heard of that.
Okay what the hell is happening now?
Unless Mel B's been kicked out of the Spice Girls, she'll be there.
I think it would have been deadly if the closing ceremony was scheduled for 9pm. All lights are switched off until a lone spot light follows a person from the entrance, silently across the whole field to a microphone on a stand in the middle.
After a moment's thought, he simply says, "Cheers. Good luck." The spot light goes off.
Exit left.

And just when you thought it couldn't get any stranger, here come the Pet Shop Boys
Not the opening one. Opening one was bloody brilliant.
This one is gash so far, but closing ones often are unfortunately. I'm looking forward to the Rio section though.
The Klan have changed colour schemes
Whats on the cyclists heads? What is that meant to represent?
My ears, the acoustics are terrible. You would think they would have got it right after the opening ceremony.
Opening ceremony was fantastic. Abide by me was simple in it's beauty and classier than entire opening ceremonies in time gone by.
Who thought it was a good idea to have moving stages? It'll always sound awful.
Did you miss Emeli Sande?
Do you want quotas? How about a few in wheelchairs and someone with a white while we're at it? stick
What did you want them to do, roof the stadium?
I wish they'd persuaded him to have a go.
Looks like chaos again :/
Oh for feck sake, get them off.
Are you serious? One Direction?
Not make it musically themed if it's going to sound terrible.
Oh feck me... Not those twats.
