Where are the curfew rozzers tonight?

Most of the bets placed so far seem more like hopeful punts rather than value spots

Remember the Commonwealth Games with Grandmaster Flash?

Excellent, feeling really patriotic right now, would probably actually slap any Olympic moaners if they crossed my path this sec

Awesome.
Take a bow Danny Boyle.
David Beckham bit was perfect.
Flame lighter's was a great idea.
Could've done without the Beatle at the end.

99% perfect, the 1% being Paul McCartney.
Loved the Chariots of Fire bit with Rowan Atkinson.
And the snippets of Kes and The Sex Pistols.
Thought the design of the cauldron was genius too.

I may have missed it but, in a massively music-centric show, was there any Rolling Stones?

The Muhammed Ali moment was very poignent, if a bit of a rip off from Atlanta.
Tragic to see how much he's deteriorated in health though.

Yeah, I thought that. Strange omission.

Very sad indeed, got to admit I shed a tear.

They were in the music montage bit, albeit briefly.

The Stones will never take part in a show where Paul McCartney gets top billing.

Dunno about anyone else, but I totally expected an actress in the James Bond scene to play the Queen, thought that scene was an excellent bit of Brit humour.

Agree with pretty much everything being posted.
Lighting of the cauldron was excellent. Paul Mac-why oh why???
Well done to all involved.
Edit - low point - WTF was shami chakrabarti doing there.
