Did you spy the lucky Brits chosen to participate in the London Olympics Opening Ceremonies?
Ewan McGregor. Kate Winslet. J.K. Rowling. Daniel Craig. Mr. Bean. Sirs Paul McCarthy and Kenneth Branagh…and the Queen herself, of course.
But what about the loyal subjects who got snubbed?
Mashable.com writer Annie Colbert highlights 10 notable no-shows in director Danny Boyle’s epic extravaganza.
Ricky Gervais. Wallace and Grommit. Ask.com’s Jeeves. Pseudo-Brit Madonna. And what about Robert Pattinson?
He could have really used the attention this week.
While I see the logic behind Annie’s picks, I think she missed the most obvious omission in Boyle’s Olympic costume drama —
The cast of Downton Abbey.
They were dressed and ready and waiting for their cue. Seems like a misstep to me.
Just saying.
