Paralympic Games: Opening Ceremony

Trish Bertram on Paralympics announcing duties

Different OBS graphics?

Indeed! Glad its her - shame she is drowned out at points though on Channel 4.

Blink and you'll miss it:

Not really 'blink'. All of my family noticed it!

What lovely music to parade the flag to and what a glorious rendition of the National Anthem. Danny Boyle should have did this.

An ad break. That answers that question.

Yay! The same cauldron for the stadium in the background!

I didn't like the Olympic opening version with the children.

This one wins, then the closing version then opening version.

They use that rendition of the National Anthem at the Last Night of the Proms these days too...

Trust C4 to stick an ad break in there... did we miss anything though?

Gill Sans - more BBC than NBC.

The IPC has a stream on their website, best keep an eye on that when C4 goes to ads.
