Good evening Your Majesty. 

I’m just freaking out over the fact that the Queen actually agreed to be a Bond girl.

I like to think of it more as Daniel Craig agreed to be a Queen boy.

I wish Sir Digby Chicken Caesar would randomly show up at the closing ceremony with the intention to steal all the medals. 

YES.

da da da da danananana da da dana da dana da da….

Center stage in the middle of a giant moon shoe that’s glowing like some kind of neon tumor, who is there to fight for all that is British and Brazilian and seems to be missing all the wienies for the gigantic bonfire over there? Yes, it’s the surprising adventures of me, Sir Digby Chicken Ceasar.

Quick, Ginger! We must obtain these metal discs.

"If you were watching TV and heard her speak, you would not consider her a Barbarian."

China vs. USA women’s water polo commentary. London Summer Olympics 2012.

“And Chad in lane four for Hungary.”

And my brain had this long moment of trying to figure out why someone from Chad would be swimming for Hungary.

It’s only 23:07. It is too early for this kind of brain fail.

Man, those women’s diving uniforms on the US synchronized diving team told me more about their breasts than I wanted to know.

I have to hand it to Britain because all the commentators can talk about between sports is about how they pulled off the opening ceremonies rather than engulfing us in sob stories.

It’s a nice change.

THIS IS WHAT THEY MEANT WHEN THEY SAID ‘KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR A FRIEND OF OUR’ TELL ME THIS IS REAL

WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT

THAT’S THE DOCTOR AND ROSE!!!!! THEY DID IT!!! (even if it,s not exactly the same) THEY MADE IT A MOMENT FIXED IN TIME IN A WAY!!!!:D

HEWRGHEUREGH IS THIS THE REAL LIFE? *laugh chokes sobs because TARDIS noises during Bohemian Rhapsody*

OMFG YESS ;____; THEY ACTUALLY DID IT *SOBS*

The world just got a little brighter.

Don’t watch the show, but that is absolutely adorable.

I’d love confirmation on this. But either way… To me they were there. We had the TARDIS noise, and the Doctor was there. 

Don’t show Donna, but this is amazing.

Nothing more weird than hearing Bob Costas use the term “spoilers.”

 Kenneth Branagh reciting lines from William Shakespeare’s “The Tempest”. 

I’ll admit, I was too busy trying to figure out what the hell he was wearing that I wasn’t listening as well as I should have. But I would know those sparkly eyes anywhere.

Perhaps the Doctor carrying the torch was never a fixed point in time.

Consider this.

Originally, Harold Saxson is still prime minister. He’s just taking his time with his madness unlike in the episodes where it all splashed out in one big gushing geyser. He does something that prevents David Beckham from being able to carry the torch. Beckham, injured but not so grave he might die, gives the torch to the Doctor and the Doctor takes it to the cauldron. Everyone just assumes the delay was due to the girl drawing everyone into pictures, but it was perhaps more sinister.

However, after this adventure with Rose, something happened and the Master’s plan got sped up, which changed the time flow just enough. This shifted events in time and created the world we live in now where Donna Noble is out there somewhere watching the Olympics on TV, a danger to herself if she would spot the Tenth Doctor, and Harold Saxson isn’t prime minister.

The Doctor as Eleven and his new companion probably touched down in the Olympic stadium and helped with some small pre-Olympics problem that now exists to fill the void of the drawing problem going away due to the changes in time. The Doctor knew that Beckham would be able to light the cauldron because the situation had changed so much due to his actions in the past that Beckham would not be injured this time.

The Doctor and his companion leave half-way through that musical bit with the love story since the time was right to leave and unintentionally ended up broadcasting the noise of the TARDIS for the world to hear.

I won’t be doing any liveblogging of the Olympics Opening Ceremony since it’s not really live at this point but I thought you should know that the opening introduction on NBC is making me LOL at the narration.

Plot twist: a Dalek lights the torch.

What if the Tenth Doctor runs the torch into the Olympic stadium because something happened to Beckham and everyone’s like “You were great, Tennant” the next day except, David Tennant was off filming something and was nowhere near London when the Tenth Doctor ran the torch.

This blog supports Matt Smith carrying the Olympic Torch…however, we will have a fire extinguisher at the ready.
