But the most memorable part of the evening was when George Osborne was booed when he presented the medals during a victory ceremony!
Crowd also didn't like the appearances of Theresa May last Thursday night when she gave out two lots of medals. There was some booing in the crowd though not as much as what greeted Osborne. She was introduced twice and those were the only two times during the evening that I didn't applaud.

I love The Last Leg. Almost as much as I love the Paralympics themselves.

I hope Adam Hills gets his own show after this. I'd happily stay home on Friday night to watch him, especially if he takes over from that disgusting Angelos Epithemiou *vomit*

Ooh I was there too! Yes it was quite funny when they booed him...and the cameras had a close up of his face on the screens!
What an atmosphere when Mickey Bushell won gold!!

I got the same email! Wouldn't allow me to check my account - We are currently experiencing high demand and the page you have requested is temporarily unavailable - lots of people must be doing the same. Hope is in the air!
