After 7 years of preparation it’s only hours now before the London 2012 Olympic opening ceremony begins. We want to know what you have heard about the opening ceremony and what it might be like. So far we have heard several rumours, such as masses of flying Mary Poppins, huge witches, farm animals, fake clouds and more!
If the organisers aim was to make it a secret…. hmmm doesn’t seem to be too a secret to us so far! Lets hope they exceed our expectations this evening.
Live coverage of the opening ceremony will be televised on the BBC from 7pm later today.
Wishing all the athletes good luck in the games, lets get ourselves some medals

1920’s Hollywood. A time when movies were silent and cinema was magic. Mack Sennett, “King of Comedy” and creator of The Keystone Kops, discovers Mabel Normand, a waitress from Brooklyn, casts her in his two-reelers and turns her into a star.
So began one of Hollywood’s most tempestuous and heart-wrenching love stories. But life isn’t like the movies – ambition, dalliance and the impending but inevitable threat of change put unbearable pressure on their relationship. Romance turns to jealousy as stardom invites scandal and heartbreak.
With a spectacular, soaring score including “Look What Happened To Mabel”, “I Won’t Send Roses” and “Time Heals Everything” Mack & Mabel is a beautiful, touching and ultimately heart-breaking story of two of Hollywood’s greatest icons.
