  2. Agreed! Though we were channel hopping so maybe it seemed even more disjointed and irrelevant!! I liked the horse on the water. Apparently the flag was flown upside down.... a distress signal.

    1. The horse was the best bit, but it went on too long.

  3. I felt it was a bit 'curate's egg' but the weather was so appalling - never seen rain like it.

    1. Most of it was bizarre, but in a disturbing way. Also it was over 4 hours long!!

  5. It was pretty rubbish, wonder what they'll do for the closing ceremony, sailing back in the opposite direction I suppose.

  6. Couldn't have put it better myself ...... disjointed, tacky and woke as f**k !!! I quite liked the horse going up the river but it went on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on !!! Should have started further up the river. Lady Gaga was trashy and why all of the Americans .... Snoop Dog, Serena Williams, Pharrell Williams, John Legend, Ariana Grande to name but a few walking on a red carpet !!! Why would you have a red carpet ?Then the lighting of the cauldren/ balloon took forever ! Can you tell that I didn't like it ? 🤣 XXXX

    2. Have to say - I completely agree! What happened to all the French artists, musicians and writers that they could have referenced and celebrated? Totally bizarre and WAAAAYY to long - and yes, Woke!
