I’m watching German coverage (as I won’t get to Paris until Sunday), but I’m enjoying it so far as the reaction of the people in the restaurant around me are clearly very positive.

At least most of the German athletes, yes. This is really sad - this should be one of the emotional highlights in every athlete's life, and then the rain forces you to miss the lighting of the cauldron because you have to fear to miss your event because of a cold...

Yes, Someone said it on here after the London Ceremony its most important that the Brits were happy and we were so I guess it stands as long as the French are happy thats what counts

Yes and no. Rowan Atkinson and  OO7 x Queen being among the most popular videos on the Olympic channel also counts

Where is the guy with the torch?

He is gone for about an hour now

Arrested by the French police. He is also suspected of sabotaging the trains and the Paris metro (the opening sequence)!

Where were they meant to go, sorry? I'm honestly not aware of where the Olympic flame is meant to be lit. Is it State de France?

The cauldron is located in the Jardin des Tuileries near the Louvre. The German athletes were actually not supposed to go back to the Olympic Village by this time. But I can't blame them, better be safe than sorry - get back home, get dry and watch the rest of the ceremony on TV:
