And no CGI, Unlike the Chinese.

No, at least Lord Coe has achieved something.

We are Great Britain, we do what we want.

#Awaits Turkish's opinion on the tracksuits... And his birthday card#

Would you say that was representative of their populace?

Uganda, 30 odd million of them and such a small team. Such untapped potential.

Hello San Marino! Wouldn't mind going with her to the principality...

He has a sense of humour, a sh*t one but still.

Sharapova > All. Game, Set and Match.

Hurray for Portugal!

Still reckon Steve Redgrave. Or John Terry....

Relax, we're on to SssssszzzzzzzZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Yes, I am perched on my head right now to compensate.

Turkish will be proud, we are dressed most smartly.

You forgot to send me a birthday card Turkish, was most upset. Xx

It's helped mellow the more abstract bits.

Move on man, it's olympic season. Peace out. x (Of course I wouldn't, that's a specific character... but where to draw the line, can only a certain child portray Jesus in a nativity? Dwelling over this, really? It means that much? It's an Olympic opening ceremony. If you read between the lines this much it will only have one outcome, and it won't be to your benefit. Chill. x)

Surely in a marriage that's the same thing.

No John Terry. He likes turning up for these things.

He's retired. They've got Graham Norton on now.

The crowd, have they been briefed to ge certain colours at a specific time? Or are they wearing something reflective?

It would be seriously bloody pettit though. Where is the practical benefit in descriminating at an Olympic Opening ceremony? An event which will be abstract and celebratory of the nation as a whole rather then aiming for painstaking historic accuracy. Not to mention the whole ethos/spirit of the games in the first place.....

So again, should we have bared performers a chance to be employed based on race? It's not PC ****** if the performing companies have a diverse membership. And we have no method to prove otherwise, especially considering that locals will more then likely have been employed for this purpose.

Only if you let it bother you. It's hardly a farce that modern british performers, regardless of ethnicity, celebrate part of their nation's history. Should all the Greeks in 2004 have gone home because their bloodlines had been contaminated by the Turkish Ottoman invaders?
