    The online tv guide siad 12.30am but it's still on.
    Just wondering wouldn't the olympians be wanting to sleep if they're up early to compete.

    Ceremony needs a big "Knees Up, Mother Brown".

    Macca's past his sell-by date. Sounds rough.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,949 ✭✭✭Samich


    Macca is sexist now! :pac:

    He definitely shared a spliff with Danny Boyle...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,213 ✭✭✭Sea Filly


    that is pretty special

    awesome fireworks as well!

    Yeah, and they didn't overdo the fireworks either.

    Still, you just know Rio's opening ceremony will be class too. :D

    Any athlete that is competing tomorrow or the next day isn't there.

    Macca is a feeble old man, can't sing. He's comparable to Ali tonight :P

    He's Paul Mc'****in' Cartney and this is one of the best known pop songs ever written, so his age or the fact he that this is far from how he would've performed this at his best doesn't really matter in this context.
    Good-will is with him tonight, just as it was with Ali.

    I think whoever is competing tomorrow is not attending the ceremony, at least that's why I think Wawrinka was carrying the Swiss flag and not Fed (cos he is playing tomorrow).

    When is the ceremony starting??

    let's have Maggie pleeeeease!

    i so want to see her poop her pants for posterity.

    "is that you Denis?"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,189 ✭✭✭✭Mars Bar


    D'ya know, I think the reason Macca doesn't sound great is coz of autotuned ****e like the X-Factor.

    Not all the athletes went, for the British team anyway they said only half of them are at the ceremony... Wouldn't you be raging if you were in an early event and couldn't go!

    Olympians competing within 48 hours aren't present, apparently.

    So. I missed the whole thing. Worth a watch?
