Olympic Opening Ceremony

[Marky]

Don't tell me Harry is an abbreviation of Henry ?
If it is I will get back in my cupboard lol.

To be honest, I didn't realise his actual name was Henry until tonight

Not sure if its a common thing but my grandfather was Henry on birth certificate, but always called Harry.

Since when has prince Harry been called Henry or have I seriously missed something ?

Wiki

They have all sorts of names though depending I think. I might be wrong, but I think in the military he's known as (Rank) Wales.

All a bit odd....

Just had a look on google, woops, I shall now go away lol.

 

[StriderX]

Is there a deeper meaning to it, like not wanting to be associated to either of the kings called Henry?

 

[brucey034]

sorry, embarrassed.

This has turned mental.

Well if that's what Brazil has to offer, we'll spank them at the 'who stages the best Olympics' game.

It would appear you have. iirc Henry is a old Norman name and Harry's the English version.

Ah fair play, don't remember it to be fair...

Agreed, ours was horrendous, however our opening ceremony was pretty good.

I'm sure they'll impress though! Lots of dancing I think

 

[Marky]

Wow look how amazing the Stadium looks

I never thought I'd get into the Olympics so much - Before I thought it was a waste of time, but I've really enjoyed it!

Dare I say... Proud to be British?

The first thing I noticed is that he appears to be speaking through a pair of balls. What is wrong with me.
