Always a good idea to do a manual record and set it that little bit longer for live stuff;)


Or use a video recorder - can't go wrong with that!

LOL. Is that similar to voice recordings on wax cylinders? Laughing

Was the last ad break during the USA team entering? At least they've been ad free for a good 90 mins or so.

Same as when the Million Pound Drop overruns, the overrunning bit never has adverts. I suppose no company wants to buy airtime that may not actually exist.

Krishnan's co commentator is far better than him. Pity we couldn't hear more from him.
At least we wont see him and Jon again until the Closing ceremony.
Time for the professionals to take over ie The BALDING Smile

I thought the ceremony itself was very good. I liked how they weaved 'The Tmpest' throughout the whole ceremony in a more effective way than Danny Boyle did.

Excellent ceremony. Smile

Nice summary, VM.

Outstanding, they just ripped the broadcast feed (and upscaled, poorly, for an HD YouTube upload). Even has the 4HD DOG on it. Very Happy

Brucie Bonus: from 0:50 onwards you can hear the horrific pre-echo of stadium ambient on OBS feed, thanks to Krishnan's mic being left faded up
