British Olympic opening ceremony

Well last night was the British Olympic opening ceremony, I wasn't hopeful and I certainly wasn't disappointed.  What a disaster, stupid sets, terrible singing and bad taste, well what do you expect with Danny Boyle running the show.
The doctors and nurses dancing for joy, why? the health service is in crises, they are closing hospitals all over the place because theres no money to pay doctors, not much joy there then.   James Bond in the opening clip with a fake queen, shame the bond films were all American funded and produced.
Then we have the real queen, sheesh! what a miserable old dear, all that done for her and she couldn't force a smile to save her life (mind you not much to smile at) I'm told she was reading while what passes for the British team came out.
Paul McCartney was dug up again, why? he sounded terrible, same as he did last time they grave robbed him, why don't these old rockers pack it in when the get past it.
The only mildy entertaining part was Rowan Atkinson playing the fool, and even he's getting boring now, the one trick pony of Mr Bean is tired and sad, but expected from royal sycophant Atkinson.
