Must be great to be on the opposite bank of the river than the cameras, seeing hundreds of people's arses sailing past.

Still very much looking forward to the competitions getting under way and suddenly becoming completely engrossed and an absolute expert in the nuances of gymnastic floor routines.

Maybe it's the UK's fault, this always used to be shit until we raised the bar and now our expectations are too high. Maybe France feel like they're selflessly jumping on the grenade by lowering expectations for future Olympics. To be fair, Beijing was incredible before us too. Well, incredible apart from the knowledge that if any of the thousands of performers cocked they would likely disappear.

I had to force myself to turn it off. There's only so much second hand embarrassment I can take.

Now I'm looking forward to the USA Olympics for the opening ceremony no doubt full of monster trucks, budweiser and Jesus with a semi automatic.

It's a real shame they didn't burn the city down before this happened.

It's just madness how they keep cutting away to whatever the hell is happening on the cat walk at random points.

The catwalk is one of the few structures in this that they could have put a perspex cover on it when building it and it wouldn't have had any impact in function, doh.

Its only the ammount of snark in this thread that keeps me going. That and the wine of course. I’ll keep on watching until they float a menhir down the Seine with Asterix and Obelix onboard

Who’s going to break it to the fashion show people that they’re only filler while they line up the next camera shot

Ha, yeah this endless cutting between catwalk to boats is hilarious. It feels like the creators of Eurotrash are in charge in the studio.
