Olympian2004 511 Posted July 27, 2012 Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 The flag is fluttering nicely. Good to see a stadium again where some wind is blowing. It makes a flag hoisting look so much better. The anthem was OK, it sounded a bit more off-key than in the rehearsal video. Link to post Share on other sites
intoronto 650 Posted July 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 Don't like the anthem Makes Nikki look like the best rendition. This ceremony tbh is the most unique I have seen without a doubt ! (good thing) Link to post Share on other sites

paul92 93 Posted July 27, 2012 Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 Ok, for you foreigners, GOSH stands for Great Ormond Street Hospital - which is a children's hospital in London. The dancers are actually NHS DRs and nurses. (NHS = National Health Service - but you should really know that one) Link to post Share on other sites

Olympian2004 511 Posted July 27, 2012 Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 I find it endearing, with those doctors and nurses dancing and the children jumping in their beds. And they shortly reminded us that there's still that giant bell. Why did they ring it only once? I won't understand it. Link to post Share on other sites
