theone Posted August 8, 2008 Report Posted August 8, 2008 The stadium scoreboad is showing 19 minutes to go. Is it just me or does it really feel that Beijing's opening ceremony will not be as classy as Athens?
Sir Rols Posted August 8, 2008 Report Posted August 8, 2008 Seven here has basicaly devoted its whole night's coverage so far to the lead-up. The hypes started to rise.
Rich Posted August 8, 2008 Report Posted August 8, 2008 Since 10 in the morning they show various documentaries about the Olympics.In 5 minutes they will start transmitting live from Beijing. We will watch the ceremony with our hearts open (as papaioannou said). GOOD LUCK BEIJING! Finally better late than never the good old BBC is just kicking off its coverage now. Prawn Crackers and a cup of Tea at the ready lol

Citius Altius Fortius Posted August 8, 2008 Author Report Posted August 8, 2008 The CBC website doesn't work I hope the server of GB won't break down...

PYRROS2004 Posted August 8, 2008 Report Posted August 8, 2008 wait...that's how the 2 presidents enter the stadium? Poor!
Rich Posted August 8, 2008 Report Posted August 8, 2008 the stadium is very impressive inside. ooh we've got michael johnson as a presenter on the BBC
dave199 Posted August 8, 2008 Report Posted August 8, 2008 impressive pictures from the stadium I agree. It's such a beautiful stadium, especially illuminated at night. The same thing can be said about the Water Cube.
PYRROS2004 Posted August 8, 2008 Report Posted August 8, 2008 it looks it's very hot in the stadium, and foggy too
