Dibble 26 Jul 7:24pm, 26 Jul 2024 1,094 posts	0 Dibble Obviously the rain doesn't help and it feels a bit messy. However I find the fact it is all real rather than CGI and big video screens rather refreshing.
Meglet 26 Jul 7:27pm, 26 Jul 2024 24,861 posts	0 Meglet What is going on? It feels really disjointed. The interspersing of video inside the buildings with the live action isn’t working for me
eL Bee! 26 Jul 7:29pm, 26 Jul 2024 20,873 posts	0 eL Bee! This really underwhelming..... and I'd be really pissed off if I was an athlete stuck out in the rain on the Seine
Meglet 26 Jul 7:30pm, 26 Jul 2024 24,862 posts	0 Meglet I like that they’ve broken up the parade of nations, but there’s less opportunity to critique outfits and spot athletes
Meglet 26 Jul 7:31pm, 26 Jul 2024 24,863 posts	0 Meglet Agreed eL Bee!, they’re not getting the grand entrance into the stadium with all the cheering
Velociraptor 26 Jul 7:33pm, 26 Jul 2024 70,120 posts	0 Velociraptor Corralling the athletes into barges where they can't lurch up to the nearest camera and pull faces seems like an improvement on London. I'm quite enjoying the cityscapes.

About This Thread

Maintained by Curly45

Couldn't find a thread so thought I would start one.

Who else is off to watch or who is watching at home?

We're doing Lille and Paris and a mix of sports. Currently trying to find travel insurance that includes ticket cancellation as some of the trains in the UK might be difficult and we have some internal French trains to do as well.

Also need to work out the new Paris metro ticket/app combo (Navigo I think).
