Managed to watch the first thirty minutes than gave up on it. As brilliant as the Opening Ceremony was so unbrilliant has been the Closing Ceremony ... so far. Hope for the audience's sake it improves.

Haven't seen the opening ceremony yet. Couldn't watch it at the time and it's nowhere to be found on replay, most annoying

Totally agree, confused and disjointed.

It's settling down now but the start was dire.

Robbie would have been more comfortable in the chorus line wearing Theia's cardigan than frontlining with the professionals. Jessies at least got a decent voice

The show went on, it's the only way.

Go Daltrey. It's odd, I can watch this and see who's missing at the same time.
