Eurovision Time!!!

[edesignuk]

That was G E N I U S.

*bows*

oh! We're up!

edit: er, yeah, we're on. omg. ****.

everybody was kung fu fightiiiiiing.

 

[Lau]

This isn't even funny.

It's really, really dreadful.

Well, it is a bit funny. But I'm embarrassed to be British at this moment....

 

[gekko513]

I think UK deserves another and a WTF.

 

[Peterkro]

Jesus, what the hell was that? Sub Ali G with flavours of Brick in the Wall and early The Move.Very, very strange.

 

[Lau]

It was like an infinitely more embarrassing version of Tim Westwood in a bad soft porn film, but with no talent.

 

[edesignuk]

The Greek bird looks like she's struggling to keep her mic from running to hide. Poor woman.

 

[Lau]

Ooh, it's Finland next. They look rather fabulous.

Edit: "It's the a-rock-olypse".

 

[Jaffa Cake]

Wow... rocking, beardy, latex-clad undead-viking devil worshippers. Just what Eurovision has been lacking all these years.

Ooo! He's got wings!

And a big chopper.

 

[edesignuk]

Finland, I think I love you.

 

[gekko513]

I guess this needs a screen capture...

 

[Peterkro]

Finland to win!!!11eleventy11!!!

If your gonna take the piss it's as well to do it to the max.

 

[Lau]

Absolutely - Finland are getting my vote for sure.


Edit; Wogan, stop saying "Greek fisherman's cap" FFS.

 

[edesignuk]

uh oh, france. being british, I am, of course, obliged to ridicule this.

oh good, it sucks

 

[drlunanerd]

Finland to win!!!11eleventy11!!!

If your gonna take the piss it's as well to do it to the max.

I agreed - until cutey pie with the sturdy legs came on. I think Ukraine will give everyone a run for their money. Good simple tune + fit smiley bird = votes!

 

[Lau]

uh oh, france. being british, I am, of course, obliged to ridicule this.

oh good, it sucks

Heh - Liam's words "What an interminable buch of s***".

 

[gekko513]

I liked the French song.


Edit: Eurovision became even more fun when eastern Europe joined.

Hoy-da-doy-da-doy!

Ireland is boring...

Sweden: Can it get more Eurovision cliché??

Turkey: I'll take a couple of those dancers. The song... meh...

 

[Blue Velvet]

I guess this needs a screen capture...

Awesome! RARWWWK!

 

[Jaffa Cake]

French entry? I've forgotten it already.

 

[edesignuk]

Nice outfits Croatian chaps

edit: Christ Ireland, WAKE UP. Dull, dull, dull.

 

[Jaffa Cake]

Christ Ireland, WAKE UP. Dull, dull, dull.

They just don't seem to try any more, do they? Not since My Lovely Horse...

 

[Lau]

Yeah, booorrrring. Geddorf. We want drama and costumes.

As a side note, my Penguin bar had a slightly mac-esque keyboard on the wrapper. Although, thinking about it, with the penguin it's Linux, innit.

Edit: Sweden with, as Wogan says, "Trousers of kitchen foil".

 

[edesignuk]

Ireland should enter U2 one year and we can have the Rolling Stones, Pink Floyd or The Who, that'd teach 'em

 

[Jaffa Cake]

Sweden with, as Wogan says "Trousers of kitchen foil".

I don't think I want to live in a world where it's considered unacceptable for a pretty foreign lady to wear kitchen foil on her lower extremities.

It was rubbish, though.

 

[edesignuk]

Turkey needs to GO HOME.

NOW.

 

[Lau]

I've just realised two things. One is that if you press the red interactive button, you get a karaoke type sing along thing going on.

Two, is that you also get subtitles with interesting facts about Greece during the bits between the songs. Terry Wogan is evidently ignoring this with such gems as "Ooh, the discus".
