It is pretty dire.

No more than Isambard Kingdom Brunel or Tim Berners-Lee did. These opening ceremonies are always partly about the history of the nation they're in.

Did they order this opening ceremony from Temu?

Yup this or it's been pre filmed and added as a show reel.

It's descended into just a mass french mime act now. Has the rain blown the sound?

I did have a horror thought that didn't we have Mr Blobby at ours?

You've been able to see someone in the background of some of the live shots. Obviously, the stuff on a obviously sunny day isn't live

You'd wonder how many of the athletes will catch a cold out in the rain and wind and not on their best form in the coming days.

I like to imagine I dreamt that too.

This isn't a thing. Colds are viruses, you don't get a cold from being wet.

When is the actual ceremony starting? I mean, this is all the athletes and some cut scenes.
I’m quite sure the 2012 opening ceremony was incomprehensible to anyone outside the UK but this is just dire.

Getting ill then
Still it will affect some due to low immunity or decreasing their immunity which then leads to them catching a virus.

Quite, I imagine if any colds are caught it will be from the Olympic village.
Not just colds either.

Well they've tried something different......
Just feels like a Royal parade as part of the Jubilee celebrations.
If I was the home nation team I'd want to come in last to a cauldron of a stadium cheering for you (with Heroes playing like we did
), not trundling down a river with a few fans cheering on the sidelines like it's the boat race.
