Probably the best part of the show for me. I'm sure the whole thing looked fabulous if you wre in the arena, I didn't think it transferred well to TV at all; unlike the opening ceremony, which I thought was a masterstroke.

Sure wish Chicago hadn't lost out to Rio for 2016. I would have been fun to have the Olympics 80 miles from my house.




:) I loved every min of it . I might of prefered it to go to you to not sure i can get on board with all this samba lark were gonna get from Rio but got 4 years to worry bout that ..lol

Thought the ceremony was just one big long party which was fab , loved the crowd singing along with freddie murcury + Imagine with john lennon . The eric idle skit was so totally bonkers and totally us ..lol and i was singing along at the top of my voice :D

Loved the closing ceremony. In my eyes the correct decision to mine our internationally reknowned pop culture for a giant concert. Loved the creation of Lennon's face during Imagine.

Strange that it's finally all over.

Haha, didn't see it, but you can't get much more British than that!
