It wasn't about London it was about great Britain, that was the Olympic stadium built for the Olympics. The queen has had corgies since she was a girl see bred her own dogs. She has many other types of Dogs.
So Joe Bidon has German shepherd dogs ,which are nothing to do with the USA but our Queen has a breed of dogs that are everything to do with Great Britain( Welsh dogs) ? And you don`t see that is appropriate?
Whoever made this video missed out so much! You can watch the whole thing on the Olympics channel. They edited out the NHS but though 🙄
The best thing about it was NOBODY knew what was going to happen. The volunteers all swore to say nothing to no one and it worked! So when the Queen turned up the whole world was surprised.
Listen to the commentators, they’re explaining what each section means. There was a tribute to those who died between the announcement of London 2012 (in 05) and the day of the ceremony. The day after the announcement there was a terrorist attack in London and the US left it out of its broadcast. Nice.
Danny Boyle directed this by the way.
Just a couple of corrections - the Olympic Games started in ancient Greece, not Rome, Italy. The British mascot is a bulldog. The Queen just happens to love corgis. Also the Industrial Revolution in the UK didn't only affect London, the first steam train ran between Liverpool and Stockton in 1825
Think you're getting the Liverpool and Manchester railway and the Stockton and Darlington railway mixed up 😁
@@shymike Quite likely. My point was that other parts of the UK had industrialisation, not just London
@@elunedlaine8661 um, we industrialised the world
The industrial revolution affected everywhere. Birmingham and Manchester grew massively and places like Norwich and York went from being the 2nd and 3rd biggest cities in the country to just small cities
The man in the top hat was Sir Kenneth Branagh he was playing Isambard Kingdom Brunel, it was a nod to the Industrial Revolution in the 1800s in Great Britain (not just London).
The Olympics started in Greece! (Rome is in Italy) 😊
That Olympics was the first that actually made a profit that was invested back in sports. All the rest have bankrupted the city hosting it!
Queen would have been 86 at the time , Boris Johnson was London Mayor back in 2012. Yes the Queen went through WW2
Danny Boyle was in charge of the opening ceremony. Explains the production values.
Someone gave the Queen a Corgi when she was about twelve. Sh'e's had the breed ever since. If you want a representative dog for us, try the English Setter, the Gordon Setter or the Border Collie.
Actually our dog is the British Bull dog, it breed in such away that it can clamp down on its prey and still breath out of its upturned nose without letting go
did you really just say 9/11 was in 2011?? 🙈🙈🤣
Wow, can't believe it 😆😆
And the Olympics starting in Rome, Greece would like a word.
Yall don’t know how hard it is to think and react!!! 🤣 Lol I know its 2000, but brain doesnt work as fast when filming
@@FavourInternational 2001...

Gosh! Cough. Queen Liz II DOB is 21/4/1926. UK history goes back to at least 2,300 BC with Grimes Graves, with at least some definitive records from c. 43 AD (the Romans and all that). A whole country survey and accounting was made for William the Bastard in 1085 (the Doomsday Book, still available), so we can pin down exactly who owned what and where at that time.
The chimneys and Isambard Kingdom Brunel (chap in tall hat) goes back to the industrial revolution of early 1800's, based on the Renaissance of science the century before. Essentially, GB went into the industrial revolution some decades ahead of other nations and ended up greatly influencing the history of The West. For example, Iron Bridge is famous for being the place where science, engineering and banking finance plus capitalism (share issues) came together in a successful project. Ideas in parts had been used elsewhere; this was the first time these were brought together to finance a speculative technology (casting of iron) to build a project.
Have fun! :)
PS the Tory government is presently strangling the NHS through near a decade of underfunding, neglect and major structural staffing shortages.
Not Wembley - that's in the west of the city. The Olympic Stadium was a brand new stadium in the city's east. The guy in the top hat was playing the part of Isambard Kingdom Brunel, possibly the world's most famous engineer, who was symbolic of the industrial age of the 1800s. The Queen was 86 at the time (and it was a stunt double in the parachute jump :) - she was a mechanic during World War 2 and still drives her beloved army-standard Land Rover. As for the world crises in and around 2012, it was the height of the Syrian civil War, there was Benghazi, and there was the "occupy" movement on Wall Street and other financial capitals. I realise this was only highlights, but it missed sooo much (no sign of Mr Bean?)
I'll just add the guy in the top hat playing Isambard Kingdom Brunell was Sir Kenneth Brannagh!
There's a better version online that plays the dambusters theme aswell
Her Majesty liked Corgis. Simple as that.
It's quite long, but the full version is just superb.. Worth a watch.
I don't know where you found this recording, the sound was rubbish.
The closing ceremony was a million times better, with all star line up of British music stars from over the years, a little bit of one of your favourites Freddie rocking the entire stadium . Also side note, you need to see the queen doing her little skit for the invictus with prince harry and the Obama's. czcams.com/video/KuNcSp2T4Lw/video.html
The full opening ceremony was pretty damn great too, probably the best of any modern Olympiad. Danny Boyle is a talented director!
💜💜💜💜
Sorry for posting my comment here, but I'm referring to your last Eurovision video:
The Iron Curtain was a deadly, almost impassable border that divided Western European countries and Eastern European countries in 2 halves (the Berlin Wall was also part of the Iron Curtain). Europe was divided into 2 parts for almost 50 years. This division arose when the Soviet Union (Russia's communist empire, founded in 1917/1922) brought its tanks to Berlin in World War II to defeat Nazi Germany. On the way to Berlin, the Soviet Union annexed + occupied the Eastern European countries and introduced "Soviet Communism" in the countries. In addition, in 1939, shortly before the start of World War II, Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union had agreed in the Hitler-Stalin Pact to divide Eastern Europe between themselves. While 🇪🇪 Estonia, 🇱🇻 Latvia, 🇱🇹 Lithuania and 🇲🇩 Moldova were annexed by the Soviet Union and incorporated as Soviet provinces into the Soviet Empire, Czechoslovakia, 🇵🇱 Poland, 🇧🇬 Bulgaria, 🇷🇴 Romania, 🇭🇺 Hungary and the German Democratic Republic (GDR/East Germany) became communist doll states of the Soviet Union (called Warsaw Pact). 🇺🇦 Ukraine, 🇧🇾 Belarus, 🇬🇪 Georgia, 🇦🇲 Armenia, 🇦🇿 Azerbaijan and the Central Asian countries (🇰🇿 Kazakhstan, 🇰🇬 Kyrgyzstan, 🇹🇯 Tajikistan, 🇺🇿 Uzbekistan, 🇹🇲 Turkmenistan) have already been 1917 - 1920 (approx.) annexed by the Soviet Union. At the end of the 1980s, the Soviet Union fall apart + the communist puppet dictatorships were overthrown in the other Eastern European countries. Furthermore, there were two other communist/socialist states, the also communist 🇦🇱 Albania and Yugoslavia, which were not doll states of the Soviet Union. Yugoslavia was founded as a socialist state by Josip Broz Tito at the end of WW2 after he and his partisans liberated the entire territory of Yugoslavia (Yugoslavia was a kingdom before WW2) from the Nazi occupiers in a guerrilla war. Tito became the leader/dictator of the state and broke ties with the Soviet Union in the 1950s, establishing Titoism, a particular path between capitalism and socialism. Tito was probably one of the most popular dictators in history, who held together the many different ethnic groups within Yugoslavia with his steel strength alone. Tito finally died in 1980 and 10 years later Yugoslavia was engulfed in a series of bloody civil wars in which all ethnic groups fought for independence, eventually breaking Yugoslavia apart. Furthermore, Czechoslovakia split into 🇨🇿 Czech Republic and 🇸🇰 Slovakia. 24 new countries emerged from the collapse of the Eastern Bloc (Soviet Union, Yugoslavia, Czechoslovakia): 🇪🇪 Estonia, 🇱🇻 Latvia, 🇱🇹 Lithuania, 🇧🇾(⬜🟥⬜) Belarus, 🇺🇦 Ukraine, 🇲🇩 Moldova, 🇬🇪 Georgia 🇦🇲 Armenia, 🇦🇿 Azerbaijan, 🇰🇿 Kazakhstan, 🇺🇿 Uzbekistan, 🇹🇯 Tajikistan, 🇰🇬 Kyrgyzstan, 🇹🇲 Turkmenistan, 🇸🇮 Slovenia, 🇭🇷 Croatia, 🇧🇦 Bosnia and Herzegovina, 🇷🇸 Serbia, 🇲🇪 Montenegro, 🇲🇰 North Macedonia (Macedonia), 🇽🇰 Kosovo, 🇨🇿 Czech Republic, 🇸🇰 Slovakia and 🇷🇺 Russia. Also, 🇵🇱 Poland, Czechoslovakia (🇨🇿 Czech Republic, 🇸🇰 Slovakia), 🇭🇺 Hungary, 🇧🇬 Bulgaria, 🇷🇴 Romania and 🇦🇱 Albania became democratic states again + West Germany and East Germany were reunited to form 🇩🇪 Germany. Today there are only 2 dictatorships left in Europe, namely 🇧🇾 Belarus (dictator Aleksander Lukashenko) and 🇷🇺 Russia (dictator Vladimir Putin). 🇦🇿 Azerbaijan, 🇰🇿 Kazakhstan, 🇺🇿 Uzbekistan, 🇹🇯 Tajikistan and 🇹🇲 Turkmenistan are also dictatorships, while 🇰🇬 Kyrgyzstan, 🇬🇪 Georgia and 🇦🇲 Armenia are democracies. 🇭🇺 Hungary and 🇷🇸 Serbia are half-democratic/half-autocratic.

Corgis are working dogs, the are herding dogs. When they brought cattle from Wales to London they dogs they used to herd the cattle was the corgi.
Queens dogs not ours. British bulldog ring any bells?
Nevertheless, still a lame choice both ways
@@FavourInternational they might not seem a lot but corgis were working dogs used by drovers for herding cattle, in a fight between a corgi and a Doberman my money would be on the corgi, bulldogs were fighting dogs originally breed to fight bulls.
@@FavourInternational ye not my idea of a proper dog but Her attachment could be emotional Her parents kept corgis and she was given one for eighteenth birthday and she's had them ever since breeding 30 plus some she's been given as gifts.
@@FavourInternational The Queen has dogs that are representative of part of our country ,Wales.
@@gillcawthorn7572 Pembrokeshire corgi's
The Olympics began in Greece lol
Gotta do the closing one now ;) good reaction
It's Welsh corgis, originating from Wales, UK.
its called the the industrial revolution. wich started in the UK 1750
As always great post 🏴🇬🇧🇺🇸edit the queens dogs are just her preference not a representation of the UK jo Biden has no idea what dogs he has anymore 👍
Whos going to tell her London has been around for over a thousand years.
Hello me dalin the British Bulldog wearing a union flag waistcoat iconic
Check Sydney's Opening and Closing Ceremonies from 2000
9/11 definitely didn’t happen in 2011
2000!
@@FavourInternational try another year later 😂
Damn 😔😅
@@FavourInternational it was in 2001.
London stadium in Stratford
I genuinely can’t wait for you to upload, you make my day when I see the notification 💞💞
Really? Makes your day? Someone so dense?? Right enough she’s a student nurse and these days student nurses are quite dense these days
I think the music is an add on, which is crap. Watch the one with out it. Nice react though.
Revolution industry
watch the opening ceremony of the 2015 European Games held in Azerbaijan
You should react to riverdance at Eurovision
The Olympics started in Greese not Rome.
That highlights video is very not good. Also, the corgis afaik were never meant to "represent England", they were just her personal dogs.
Love this girl first it was18 hundreds and Olympic games started in Greece we started the industrial revolution but bless you are funny
You missed the Mr. Bean stuff.
The classic dog to represent Britain is the Bulldog, but it's more for the unthinking violent now.
The queen has Corgis, which are a Welsh breed.
A British breed of dog is as hard to find as a British meal or a British national costume.
This place is made up of many influences, much like how the English language is made up of so many others down the years, and yet remains it's own thing.
Besides purity of breeding results in dogs that can't breathe and have congenital deformities anyway.
i think that the tickets were £20.12
Slightly disappointing to hear that the stunt double who played the Queen jumping out of the plane has now been jailed for pushing his girlfriend down stairs.
corigies are farm working dogs - often used to herd cows because they can easily avoid any feet kicking out
don't dis the corgi
The dog that represents England is the Bull Dog.
Y ou should react to the beauty of football
Best opening ceremony? Nah... You gotta go 8 years earlier!
hun 9/11 was in 2001 not 2011
There are better copies of this video
The whole 2012 opening ceremony is on the official Olympic channel if you wanna watch the whole ceremony for yourself
The queen was 86 in 2012 she's 96 now
What was going on in 2012 ? The usual shit.
Unwatchable with the sound
3:54
Favour: "you know how joe Biden has....."
Me: ".......dementia?"
I would be SO embarrassed if I'd uploaded this video. Have you heard the audio quality? Genuinely the worst I have ever heard. Sorry to be negative - you REALLY need to work on this.
The Corgi is NOT the British icon dog it is actually THE BRITISH BULLDOG another breed totally
