I'm hoping for Rick Astley at some point.

Rick Rolling the entire world would be awesome.

At this point, hoping for the Oasis brothers to come out drunk and flip off some sector of the audience to kick things off proper.

How can a DJ lip sync? I'm so confused.

Fatboy Slim. No way is that sort of stage his element. Doesn't work.

Fatboy Slim made me recall the days playing Fifa 99 on Playstation.

Well that's the problem, all of Britain's best musicians are either enfeeble or well... dead.

As a genuine early Oasis fan ... I'm a little disappointed they aren't involved in either the opening or the closing, considering they were England's biggest band of the last 20 years except for maybe Radiohead.

I guess they can't trust them onstage together.

They may well wheel out Amy Whitehouse's still warm corpse...

ya an Oasis reunion would have been phenominal

I would even say worldwide, the last 20 years they would be top 5 in terms of bands with Coldplay/Radiohead/U2

Thankfully it's Tinie Tempah and not more Dizzee Rascal. Somehow Tinie Tempah is the only Euro rapper that's not awful

I love the traffic ever-circling the "streets". Such a solid bit of creativity.

Ok now it's turned into a popfest.

I still think they should have had a British hooliganism segment including full on pub brawls over premiership allegiances.

Taio Cruz's song fits in for the celebratory atmosphere at least.
