Eurovision Time!!!

[Jaffa Cake]

However, am currently ashamed to be British.

I know, and he hasn't even done the knob gag yet. Oh no, there it is.

 

[edesignuk]

God damn we were AWESOME terrible.

PS. Russia FTW, ok.

 

[eMac4ever]

If I could vote, I would vote for the United Kingdom or the Ukraine.

 

[Jaffa Cake]

I'm not cringing!

What's happening now?

A Steps tribute act has just performed their airline based UK entry, complete with 'saucy' lines about having something to suck on when you land...

 

[gekko513]

Hahaha! Yes, Ukraine is definitely on to something there!

Sieben, sieben, eins, zwei!!

 

[bartelby]

I know, and he hasn't even done the knob gag yet. Oh no, there it is.

That reminds of my mate who world for Red Dragon FM (Welsh Radio station) he got sacked for saying the following, live on-air.

"I love a good knob gag, but my wife won't wear one"

 

[Lau]

Entirely cringing. I imagined it would be funnier and therefore worth the naffness cause it would be comedy, but it's just bland and hugely embarrassing because it's almost trying to be kitsch, and failing.

I'm strangely taken by Romania, it reminds me a bit of Leekspin.

 

[gekko513]

I'm afraid I only caught the ending of UKs entry as I was getting something to eat. I'm glad I didn't miss much by the sound of it.

Bulgaria is fascinating, but I'm not sure if I actually like it.

Edit: I'm quite impressed with the stage and the light-show this year.

 

[Lau]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAHAAAAAAA <boomboomboom> AAAHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHHAHAAAAAAAA

Yeah, not taken with Bulgaria.

 

[Jaffa Cake]

Yeah, not taken with Bulgaria.

Me neither, although to be fair they did include the phrase 'young lass' in the opening lines of their song, which gets a bonus point from me.

Meanwhile... the bloke from Turkey has been voted his country's top male performer? How bad are the rest of them, exactly?!

 

[cube]

Looks like the NokiaVision contest.

 

[gekko513]

A red tree with toilet paper on... I wonder if it symbolises anything?

 

[dcv]

I'm bored now. This Armenian guy just fancies himself as Enrique Iglesias or something. Only Moldova left now. It's got to be Ukraine FTW!

 

[Jaffa Cake]

Miss Moldova's outfit was rather splendid.

But it surely has to be Ukraine.

 

[Lau]

Odds:

 

[Jaffa Cake]

Stands to reason, Ukraine were after all the most odd.

Anyway, I've registered my vote for them.

Watching Eurovision is bad enough, voting is even worse!!!

 

[teleromeo]

I'm belgian and I voted for Georgia, Hungaria was damn good also ...

 

[gekko513]

Watching Eurovision is bad enough, voting is even worse!!!

Might as well go all the way... I've voted too.

 

[cube]

Hungary, Georgia, Latvia.

Besides that, Russia (sexy), Ukraine (laugh), Turkey (disco fun).

 

[Lau]

I keep getting "lines are busy" messages. Hope this isn't like the ITV phoneline scandal.

Gah! Time's up, and I couldn't get through to Ukraine.

 

[iBlue]

Terry Wogan's commentary is hilarious.

"I've met these people and they're even worse in person"

 

[gekko513]

My own top three are France, Serbia and Ukraine. I doubt the two first stand a chance, so I hope Ukraine will win.

 

[Lau]

Did Terry Wogan just say "The costume designer is XXXX. I think she should be shot, but there you go."?

 

[MacAnkka]

yay, Apocalyptica.
