The tree came up and people poured out, heralding Britain’s
Industrial Age (one of most vibrant parts of the performance).
I was surprised to see some negatives in my Facebook timeline, but in front of us, it was a staggering performance.
Happy and Glorious
The comedy sketch with the Queen and Bond was brilliant,
culminating with two people diving from the helicopter, and the Queen’s arrival
in the Royal Box.
All rose for the national anthem and the raising of the flag
– it’s hard not to descend into jingoistic fervour, but to sing the national
anthem, as the flag is being raised, in front of your monarch is something
quite special, and something I doubt I will ever have a chance to do again.
