Paris 'sorry' for any offence over Olympic opening ceremony

Organisers of the Paris Olympics say they are "really sorry" for any offence caused by their daring and quirky opening ceremony but denied "any intention to show disrespect to any religious group." Some Catholic groups and French bishops have condemned what they saw as "scenes of derision and mockery of Christianity" in the parade choreographed by theatre director Thomas Jolly.
