[Finn]

Briefly thought we were getting Padam Padam then

 

[D5K]

They’d better be heading down to light Notre Dame on fire again

 

[Kratz]

Are they going to LA ROCHELLE?!

 

[Ellie]

Serena Williams right now

 

[rhythmbandit]

This is more drawn out than Rafael Nadal's imminent retirement.

 

[BoysForSeles]

Serena looked like she nearly took a tumble into the Seine just then or was going to vomit.

 

[Kate]

Have we had any Jean-Michel Jarre yet? Zen would LOVE that

 

[Finn]

The man commentator had better be one of the upcoming BBC redundancies I read about in the Mail

 

[D5K]

Pretty sure that torch just went out

 

[Kratz]

Serena looked like she nearly took a tumble into the Seine just then or was going to vomit.

She looks ready to hurl

 

[ZenGiraffe]

Have we had any Jean-Michel Jarre yet? Zen would LOVE that

I haven't spotted any

Andrew Cotter? He’s by far one of the best out there.

[ZenGiraffe]

Are they burning the Mona Lisa!?

 

[Kate]

The other one is Hazel Irvine right? I love her

 

[PercyPig]

How? What? How? Eh? Is this still going on?

 

[Alex]

We're not getting Céline are it's all a big TEASE

 

[AGinAg (38)]

 

[Dark Carnival]

Right here in front of the Louvre is one of the oldest cruising grounds in Paris

 

[Alex]

How? What? How? Eh? Is this still going on?

My hangover tomorrow is 100% the faute of les français

 

[Madison]

Why do they all have bifurcated feet?

 

[Kratz]

This has all been very ambitious (shame about the weather) but it really could have done with an edit.

 

[win_the_game]

Are they bringing out every French Olympian?

 

[AGinAg (38)]

Are they bringing out every French Olympian?

Every French person.

 

[ZenGiraffe]

Are they bringing out every French Olympian?

They've dug this one out his GRAVE

 

[D5K]

It’s Lys Assia!

 

[PercyPig]

HOLD IT OLD MAN!

 

[Madison]

Slay the boots down Montgolfier

 

[supermassive]

They have this 100 year old out in the rain?!

 

[ManicKangaroo]

Apparently that was Nadia Comaneci on the speedboat

 

[D5K]

Oh the humanity!

 

[Kratz]

They have this 100 year old out in the rain?!

Dead by the closing ceremony.

 

[ZenGiraffe]

Ok I quite like this cauldron

 

[ZenGiraffe]

WHY WOULD YOU FRAME THE SHOT SO THE EIFFEL TOWER WAS COVERED
