personally i thought the lighting was spectacular the volunteers were brilliant and faultless glad they got a massive round of applause, but the acts involved were a let down and most of all the inane and pointless commentary by the BBC drove me nuts talking over some really good shots of the competitors and effects. the woman commentator was especially irritating, she said that the song that annie lenox sang was from the movie Dracula? it wasn't! and the sound system wasn't as good as it should have been, all in all i didn't think much of the closing ceremony,but that as i said it's my opinion

And mine
It seemed as though the youngsters enjoyed it, both audience and athletes. but for this old grouch - After the Lord Mayor's Show came the dustcart!
Not the best of analogies, Aqua - with the ParaOlympics following....
Point taken, DT! But taking up alan-r's point I was comparing the opening and closing ceremonies, not the whole sheebang.
-- answer removed --
Hope nobody is expecting an opening ceremony for the Paralympics the like of which we saw for those last week...I'm betting there will be a lot of disappointed folk around......

Personally I enjoyed the lot...my one grump?.....Claire Balding talks too much...but is most likely to be made a Dame, if popular opinion is anything to go by..or so they say...mmm...
I watched it on the red button and there was no commentary, just the show, much better!

yeh would have liked that netibiza but the was not available on freeview,just thought where was "our" shirley bassey,
Loved it!!
Oh no, Shirley Bassey! You cannot be serious.
Can't say I was over impressed with the line up, the lighting was fantastic though.

I enjoyed the show more because I had a thread running throughout the whole closing ceremony which was fun
