Olympics Closing Ceremony

Nfk

That was better absolutely mad and nutty.

Who is this guy now? Muse? Should I have heard of him?

Who's this prat performer?

Darcy Bussell is definitely going to be on; my friends daughter is one of the dancers on with her.

Sorry Anagram sitting here in half light I read it as DCI. No idea what has been going on.

Equally sure that the Spice Girls were miming - did they ever do anything else?

Featuring David Cameron's 'Indian Dancers'!! It is a party tribute for the athletes..who are all younger people so is aiming to appeal to them ..not us on GN..though i wish i was there. It looks like great fun!

Hey the fat lady has sung - where's me fireworks? It's past bedtime.

Eric Idle sketch - brilliant!!! Just brilliant!!

Well I'm sure Eric Idle wasn't miming! Wonderful.

DC ! David Cameron. If you've been out of the country, Alison that might not mean much to you.

I'm looking forward to the Elgar. Well I would, living in Malvern!

Also heard Darcy Bussel is going to be on and wonder what she is like now as I never was a big fan.

DCI?

Indian dancing - put that in your pipe and smoke it, DC!

Always look on the bright side...
Now they're talking!

Having said that. I also love ELO. MR. BLUE SKY [bop emoticon]

I adore 'Sunset'. Memories of parade grounds when I was a child, the Queen wiping a tear from her eye when Britannia was decommissioned and the International Festival of the Sea in Portsmouth. Beautiful in it's simplicity.

I thought Victoria looked ill.

Well, you were going back a bit on this thread, Jane, and at the moment we're watching the closing ceremony.

Liam Gallagher - why?

anagram - merlot suggested a piece by the Band of the Royal Marines.
I like this one, the Ashokan Farewell www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fw-b0OeI3QY.
I would like to think that the courage, dedication and professionalism of the Royal Marines represented our nation rather better than the shallowness of the 'celebrities' on show tonight. I mean, can we be proud of Russell Brand?
For heaven's sake!

Wow the Spice Girls are looking good.

I hope they get round to Rio's input soon!

Amazing octopus!..

Oh yes, I thought she looked familiar.
