I’ve seen Iwan Thomas on TV saying he’s a Saints fan. Update his Wiki page! Wiki is editable...

I bloody love the Olympics. Fortunately I have discovery+ as I love the cycling and watched the Rugby 7s QF which were brilliant.
Completely agree if the Olympics isn’t the pinnacle of your sport it shouldn’t be anywhere near the Olympics. Football, Golf and Tennis shouldn’t be in it.
Watching the opening ceremony, Lady GaGa, oh dear, what were you thinking

I gave the ceremony a fair try but switched off after 45 mins, bloody awful, and who thought it a good idea to put the refugee team on a boat ffs

I had it on till 9 when I watched the Test highlights and began watching ITV News. Their reporter in Paris said they hadn't lit the O flame yet so I switched back and watched till the end. It was entertaining enough although the athletes sailing down the Seine in the pissing rain was barely relevant. The tableaux were generally interesting and to get on with it all in that downpour was impressive. I particularly liked the Military Band with the Malian singer and her troupe and enjoyed the celebration of Paris's history at the sites where it happened. The Hot Air Balloon/Crucible was excellent but they saved the best till last. Celine's fantastic rendition of that Piaf classic, halfway up the Eifel tower next to a rain-sodden grand piano was nothing short of Brilliant! Well done Paris.
Seems it went down well with the French public too which is a bonus. PS. Our synchronised lady divers have just won a bronze - on Day 1!
