Being British, and knowing the amount of hype that has gone into this ceremony, I have had expectations on flop from the very beginning... But I think they did a fantastic job. Better than Beijing, for sure, if only because it truly had direction. It told a story. It brought various famous and recognisable aspects of British culture combined with traditions perhaps unknown to many, as opposed to creating a spectacle simply for the sake of being incredible. I really loved this ceremony. I will admit to being completely confused for the first ten minutes or so, but after that everything made sense, and I enjoyed everything from then on.

Well deserved of course

[Teen Idle]

The rings and the petals were amazing. Not only were they beautiful but they actually represented an important part of history for britain with the industrial revolution, unlike the beijing and athens ones, although they looked great too..

Having to have watched both i say Beijing is still the best opening cerenomy so far. It had it's moments, some feels forced and had a bunch of unnecessary parts but it was good overall. GJ London

LOL at every single one of you lot

I'm British and we all enjoyed it and thought it represented British culture very well. It showed music, film, the NHS, agriculture and British history very well.

The performers were brilliant and it was presented very well.

But it just seemed to be a giant pantomime/broadway show most of the time. It showed off the culture, but it never really seemed to make me proud to be part of that culture.

Maybe I'm just jealous that I got rejected from taking part in the ceremonials/having a job at the Olympics post-interview

I'm mad Atlanta's opening ceremony was basic compared to all the other cities that hosted the olympics.
