You mean the cauldron right? My bet is on Steve Redgrave.

Where the fuck is the cauldron? I see no sign of it in the stadium!

Maybe its in the orbit, thing?

I loved the reveal of it in the Beijing ceremony. I want to see what London comes up with.

It can't be as bad as Vancouver:

 

[Withnail]

Nah they will go for a figure who will be known even to small kids all over the world.

Harry Potter?

 

[SDBurton]

Maybe it's inside Glastonbury Tor?

I don't care for Beckham so hoping for Bond. Maybe all the bonds @ once :O

No, no. It'll be all of the Doctors.

The tree at the middle is the tree of sports. Different sport-fruit will descent from the tree. A football fruit will land, and David Beckham will hatch out of it and walk to a bus stop whilst drinking a bottle of Newcastle Brown Ale and eating chips, then wait for ten minutes before 3 London buses turn up at once.

I understand there are many who have a lot of hatred or intense dislike for London but I've got to say that watching this reminds me of how much I miss it. It's really the only place where I felt at home.

Actually that's pitbull

Watching in 3D on BBC HD, very impressed with the quality.

The cauldron is the stadium itself.

Some men...

 

[Rich!]

Phil Mitchell is gonna light the cauldron then punch someone in the stadium.

 

[Britprog]

I doubt that as the tor is temporary, normally there will be seats there.

I want this to happen.

lol besides this awkwardness (and gretzky being driven through mobs on the back of a pickup), it was a pretty solid opening ceremonies. good, even, if compared to openings of the past. pretty much all of them pale in comparison to beijing, though.

 

[Miles X]

Will it be this thread that updates the medal table tally?

 

[pappe]

Harry Potter?

By kids I actually meant casual followers of sports all over the world. Not actual kids sorry.

 

[smr00]

6 minutes? Mother of god.. I haven't set my DVR, reminders or anything!

 

[Edmond Dantès]

Gorgeous.

 

[Dark Schala]

This bit on CTV is pretty decent so far.

 

[killer_clank]

Haha. This has to be the only way.

 

[danwarb]

I've just found a BBC Sport app on Samsung TV. Lots of clips and HD streaming.

 

[twobear]

I wonder if the ghost of Princess Di, QUEEN OF HEARTS, will make an appearance *O*

 

[Kurtofan]

An Eiffel tower will sprout from the stadium.

Here we go.

 

[Fritz]

I just learned that the dramatic lighting of the cauldron is a Nazi invention.

[Shadow780]

I'm using BBC Player 1.52, it works.

 

[fly high ~ayunite~]

The BBC really do spoil their viewers

 

[NihonTiger90]

An Eiffel tower will sprout from the stadium.

Would that make France the Caltech of Europe?

 

[Wes]

Elgar!

 

[Edmond Dantès]

T-minus 5 minutes!

 

[mclem]

This is genuinely my view - I'm right at the top of a staircase, dead centre.

If you see a guy in that spot in a blue polo and white trousers - and a ton of hair - that's me

 

[Gareth Bale]

Didn't they suspend betting on Roger Bannister? Looks like it will be him.

 

[Quick]

This bit on CTV is pretty decent so far.

Rod Smith can narrate me taking a shit and it would still sound pretty epic.

 

[brokenbeans]

Trevor Nelson, whyyyyyy?

 

[OpinionatedCyborg]

BBC's player won't load for me while CTV's is running fine. Looks like my decisions' been made for me.

nvm, it's working again and it is spectacular

DONT LOOK MARION

Ahhh. Orchestra - for the pomp and circumstance.
