BBC TV coverage doesn't start till 12:45 so perhaps a 1pm UK time start.

Thats the smog, you need to look harder.

PS. Personally I'd like to see more of the Monkey cartoons they are showing as the introductions.

Monkey, Pigsey and Fishface

That'd be due to it not starting until 1:08PM

its ceratinly an amazing spectacle, you just know we are going to look so sad in 4 years time

Pretty amazing spectacle!

Say what you like about the Chinese Government, but the population seem very friendly and proud of their country.

Not sure how we're going to compete with this in four years. I mean, what history have we got that we're allowed to be proud of? I can't imaging us boasting of how we once ruled the world

In four years time, there might not be anyone left in the UK who are Britsh if Labour carry on the way they're going. Still I'm sure the Polish/Eastern Europeans will put on a good show on our behalf...

drummers/lights were amazing. And yes, i cant see us coming close.

[Olf]

That's the point though. We shouldn't try.

It's like going to some extravagant wedding where the Bride and Groom are blowing a fortune... Do you try to compete? No.

We should do our own thing. Besides all that ste detracts from the sport.

Bloody AWESOME!!!

Just what I was thinking. It will take one hell of an effort to eclipse this show - very impressive!

Any guesses to what our theme will be in 2012? Perhaps a giant hand beckoning in a money-grabbing way, with a large mallet to quell the insubordinates.

Ever go to the Millennium Dome? It'll probably be like that, but worse.

Bugger, I thought I was going to miss this.

Cheers for the linky!

Absolutely incredible show, I've never seen anything like it.
We would be crazy to try and compete with such a spectacle.

Someone at the BBC likes Spinal Tap, the max volume setting is 11.

[y2blade]
