    Most of these tunes, to be fair, would be internationally recognised. It's not a navel gazing show just for the Brits....

    And they are awesome tunes....

    If India had the Olympics they'd play plenty of Bollywood. Brits write good tunes, so why not celebrate it!

    An awful lot of in-references in this show. I wonder how this will be received internationally? If you weren't exposed to british culture daily, this might be hard to get.

    I'm not seeing a lot of British culture yet. They haven't yet represented fish 'n' chips, the X Factor or racist footballers.

    If Stephen Fry pops up, this will be perfect.

    I would cry with happiness if Fry and Laurie did a sketch.

    If North Korea is watching all this - they are probably wondering "How did we miss all this?"

    They're watching footage of their athletes queing to collect their gold medals for every event already.

    I know they have a non-commentary option, but why do BBC even bother offering commentary in the first place, it's just annoying
