The tribute to the NHS in an Olympic ceremony was just weird, I thought. Sure, China is an oppressive country, and the people probably were forced to perform and practice relentlessly, but their opening ceremony was one of the best and most visually stunning things I’ve seen.

I agree. I thought Beijing was spectacular! As far as being forced to perform and practice relentlessly, I think the majority of the Chinese people are proud and hard working...and strive for perfection. I’ll bet the performers chose to practice “relentlessly.”

China Olympic Opening - Good

UK Olympic Opening - Sucked

I made it through about 1 minute and had to change the channel - Mr Bean?? Get real!

We don’t want to see the history of British sitcoms at the Olympic Opening
