Very surreal night. Most odd ceremony!

I think George Michael should have done Wake Me Up Before You Go Go or Club Tropicana for his second number. Maybe with pepsi and shirley rocking up in black cabs.

Helicopter noises in the background, wonder if something else is going to happen or if it's from the cameras

I for one am vry excited to be at this age and be lucky enough to be in UK when London 2012 is on and slightly annoyed at those who are fed up of hearing about it, apparently. But why are people fed up of hearing about it? This country has done a lot to get here and we should be very proud.
All I here is "I'll be glad when it's over" or "I'm sick of hearing about it" etc.
I am excited.
But the question is,
will it be one of the best?
Every single event that goes by according to the commentary is an improvement on the previous event, etc. So will London 2012 be amazing? Will London look like the best city on earth? I for one am not a big fan of London, but genuinely looking foward to see what we can offer as a country.
Come on London!!!
Yes.

I liked the supergroup of Britishness: Queen's We Will Rock You performed by Sir Isaac Newton representing England, Colin from the interior design programmes on representing Scotland, the Edge Ireland and I assume Ruth Maddoc on lead vocals from Wales.
Don't remember that outfit on Hi De Hi, mind.

What a shocking start. Madness, Pet Shop boys, 1D, need to either retire or get off my TV screen. Emili Sande was fine filling in for Adele. Ray Davies needed to step aside and let anybody else in the stadium take over.
WTF George Michael!!! Never seemed to end.
Russel Brand?!? Although his apperance was acceptable considering he got booed.
Picked up once Fat boy Slim arrived, and was more what I was expecting from then on. Spice girls were good, and didnt overstay there welcome.
Note to Sir Paul Mccartney, next time decline the invitation and let them call the Who instead.

Do Beady Eye always do Oasis songs? That was the worst bit for me (after Brand), I punched the air when I thought Oasis had reformed, only to see it was a covers band.

The Olympics was still the best thing I have seen happen to this country in my lifetime. I really hope it leaves a lasting impression on sport, events, and the general attitude of the British.

I believe that this is the first time that Beady Eye has played an Oasis song.
Both Gallaghers had - separately of course - said that it wasn't something that had been discussed between them and that, in theory, there was nothing stopping them from doing it.
If I remember correctly, Liam's argument was that Noel had left the band and the rest were still there. Noel's argument was that whoever played the song, it wouldn't be the same as Oasis and everyone would know that.
Loving the BoJo Disco avatar btw. Kid got game (and other urban chat)

The back stories of the people competing and medallist were the real interest for me. When the BBC added a VT history of the individual it really made what was essentially a rather dull sport interesting, funking for them to win for whatever the reason.
I enjoyed the story of the sailor who's wife (a gold medallist at the last Olympics) gave up her sport to look after the family so he could compete to win a medal that he could not get in Beijing (he was 4th). To put everything on hold for his dream and when he won silver his kids were so proud of Daddy, it was just bloody great to watch, this man was so happy.
Mo's story is nothing short of amazing, an immigrant in London, struggled in school, always on the wrong side of the teachers, but they saw a hidden gem with a talent. How he managed to turn his life around with the help of funding (and other more established stars like Paula Radcliffe paying for his driving lessons lol), he was an elite runner but when he saw the need to change his training environment/trainer/coach and plod off to America to go that extra step needed for gold he did it. Not easy when you have a wife and family.
So many heart warming stories...
