    Cant imagine having three bullets pass through my body then winning Olympic silver! Running!
    And Greece only got 2 bronze, but Cyprus beat them in the final table with 1 silver!
    Only 6 medals for the 2.21 billion people of India. Surely they have enough University teams/clubs to unearth more winners than that?

    Seems a lot of people are having a moan up about this but I'm not sure they realise it's supposed to basically be for the athletes to come out and parade to a bit of music and then the flame handed over to Rio. It's not supposed to be Glastonbury or a West End show. They could have just stuck a CD on.

    poor so far in my opinion

    According to the BBC

    Ceremony director Kim Gavin has said he wants an athletes' "mosh pit" for the gig ahead. As in the opening, the athletes are filling the floor of the stadium. Their body language is so much more relaxed than that of two weeks ago.

    I really like the way the Union Flag has been used to such effect at every opportunity. The Stadium from above looks just unbelievable.

    Good to see the athletes being kettled. A fine British tradition. :)

    Surely they could have played some different tunes whilst the athletes are getting into place, pretty naff playing what we have already heard.

    I was bein sarcastic!!!!!

    People will actually moan about anything. I don't see how you can have a 'poor' closing ceremony.
