For some reason a minority of people are homing in on the 'NHS section' of the ceremony, which was just part of this fantastic event.
One thing that hasn't been mentioned is the way it highlighted the amazing work of one of the
world's leading children's hospitals, Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH) and it's pioneering work. A lot of the ceremony participants were off duty staff and some previous patients of GOSH also took part. That alone makes it worthwhile for me.
Oh and before anyone starts to ask what that has to do with an international audience read the following and perhaps learn something:
Home - International and Private Patients
God knows what criticism will come from the Closing Ceremony
