roddy Posted August 8, 2008 at 12:10 PM Report Posted August 8, 2008 at 12:10 PM Aw, don't be so cynical, you're spoiling it. Hey, Shadowdh - tell your kids the IOC say they're too close to the TV, other people can't see . Military uniforms - check. Just waiting for pandas and great walls . . . Quote

roddy Posted August 8, 2008 at 12:13 PM Report Posted August 8, 2008 at 12:13 PM The salutes were odd - it was like they didn't want to do a traditional military one, but weren't sure what to go with. Quote

roddy Posted August 8, 2008 at 12:18 PM Report Posted August 8, 2008 at 12:18 PM I'd guess it must be, but I still haven't figured the rings out, so . . . Got to love the BBC presenters, suddenly expert on all things Chinese. Quote
