There are no Spoilers you either saw this or not so if iv ruined tough luck

As I start the review the date is still July 27th 2015 I’m sure by the time I’m done it will be the 28th. But still 3 years ago today an event occurred which is probably once in a life time. The Olympics came home to London, in Stratford & we had to put on an opening ceremony.

First we had to get home tho it was the quickest drive home from Worthing I ever did to get my sister dinner was prepped so when we got in it could be cooked. Wine & snacks for the night were ready too. So at 20:12 in the evening as the fly pass happened the proceedings started & we were ready to marvel.

I’m not sure what the rest of the world thought but it was quintessentially British & perfect. We took the piss out of ourselves but still showed that we weren’t to be taken lightly. As Robin Williams genie in Aladdin says… Phenomenal Cosmic Powers… Iddy Biddy Living Space.

Sir Bradley Wiggins opening it in yellow after winning the tour. Shame he didn’t do a raffle really like he did 5days before. Also once he had rang the bell he just sulked off. Classic wiggo.

The cricket fields & maypole dancers feris wheels & sheep the isle of wonders were quickly diminished by sir Kenneth Brannah for his industrial revolutions which would reveal the Olympic rings. Half way through there’s a minutes silence for the victims of war who have sacrificed so much for our country for generations & yet we still rise from the ashes.

Bond. James Bond… & THE FUCKING QUEEN WHAT yea real queen. Bet she was a bit pissed off she had to wear the same outfit twice. Daniel Craig face when he goes evening is just a picture he’s trying so hard not to laugh. I also like the fact that the queen jumps out the plan first.

Which bring me to emille sande. Anyone watch quiz of the year each year? well this year the 2 blokes who were the queen & bond jumping from the plane were the mystery guests & when they were asking there clue questions & one said they were apart of the Olympics Jack Whitehall scream omfg are you emille sands? Classic. She was good & it went well with the very Danny Boyle dance sequence, but I’m sorry abide with me is the fa cup hyme & should only be sung then.

The London symphony orchestra with the world’s best composer were amazing. Purely beautiful & classy. & then why not throw Rowan Atkinson Mr bean in there for chariots of fire. Just hysterical it all ways make me laugh so much.

I have to say a lot of the things in the show that were great for being British were fictional. Think about what iv said so far now let’s add voldemort, Mary poppins, child catcher, cruella, the exorsist, no Rowling, swans ( well ones on bikes at least). The most real thing was the nhs & nurses who had a brilliant bed time story routine. Does beg the question if someone had been I’ll on Olympic night what would have happened.

The music montage for popular culture we sing every word too. It’s amazing dizzy rascal turns up. He must have been well happy. Trevor Nelson (who was the worst part of the show commentating) saying bet you can name all the videos or songs they use. I think between the 3 of us tonight there was 1 we didn’t get haha.

The athlete parade did take forever. But that’s why I have it on DVD to get all the way to team GB & sir Chris Hoy ‘( hold back tears & breath…and then hero’s as well by Bowie cue parole officer dance at the end of the film. We looked amazing in our white & gold even the queen looked happy. Who’d have thought they would do so well, even tho it was a home games we did far too well.

Then my mate Seb, IOC Jacques & the queen opened the games. & every time someone mentions a games maker or volunteer remember to drink. Seb looked well happy. He was all like look what I built.

The Olympics have there own anthem? even less of a reason for abide with me. Yes I understand it’s all about the sport of the games ( and may the odds be ever on your favour) but really. It dragged on a bit too.

So then came the flame. It came to the bottom of our road about a week before the Olympics it was raining & cold & we had a coca cola girl running with it but by God did it burn. Beckham looked cool going down the Thames on his speedboat to meet sir steve, who, no offence sir Chris, is the greatest Olympian ever from our country. & then it was passing it on to the generations so each legendary Olympian had picked a star of the future to light the flame on their behalf, while the athletes volunteers (drink) construction workers & other British Olympians looked on.

The cauldron was beautiful I don’t care that the world couldn’t see it. It was perfect & understated a bit like team gb.

And then Sir Paul McCartney turns up with hey Jude doesn’t matter he was slightly out of time to start, it was brilliant. And then that was that.

Some foreshadowing. At one point everyone sung forever blowing bubbles… Who won the bid for the ground? WestHam! Sustainability & legacy both huge parts of the ceremony, which would have made tv show twenty twelve proud. & the fireworks were really not fake to.

It was just amazing from the fly pass to the please leave the stadium.Just brilliant. What makes it all a bit sad is that I probably won’t see another home Olympics, but on the plus I can tell my kids one day about it. The other sad thing is Danny Boyle was awarded a knighthood for his services to film creative art & the Olympics, which he turned down as he said he wasn’t the real hero of the Olympics, & that he would feel bad taking it. Nonsense…

Arise Sir Danny Boyle!
