Same here :gthumb:
Channel 4's coverage of the games will be broader than BBC's Olympic coverage
Okay we've had a young taxi driver chap looking rather cheerful
Now we've got a bloke in slippers and a massive dressing gown doing plink & plonk on the piano
Meanwhile some wheelchairs dancers weave between the men in black
Okay I enjoyed the dancing on the pianos

Now the taxi has arrived
Taxi man shouted well

Now we have an ad break
We're back and there's more dancing.

The men in black are still going.

Plus a singer dancing on the pianos now.

FYI, quote list didn’t work.
Like for the Olympics, the outdoor ceremony really hasn't mixed the audio properly
French red arrows coming.
FYI, quote list didn’t work.
