***Olympic Closing Ceremony - The Official Thread***

[Franks Wild Years]

Same as the opening ceremony - is it the BBC or is the sound really crap there?

Its the way the BBC mix and send out the send they get from the live boys. Ive heard the sound in the stadium and its brilliant.

I like this idea with the athletes coming in. Nicely innovative.

There's some cracking stuff with the flag bearers.

Who is this singing now as the athletes come in.

I wonder if Rio is going to play a part in the ceremony, just as London did in Beijing (Remember, Leona Lewis singing and Beckham kicking a ball off a red bus). Might get a bit of carnival atmosphere going.

This reminds me of 'It's a Knockout'.

It does, will be showing off their "multi-cultural" roots according to BBC News.

They will, happens each time. Apparently are going to "celebrate their multi-cultural roots".

Thank you and while on Prince and their names I was told on a Tower of London visit that when Charles becomes king he will be known as George VII and take that name as a tribute to his grandfather and his mother.

Well at least he can sing live - which is a damned sight more than you can say for most of the other pants acts.

I didn't know his mother was called George?
