Our tactic of using ageing, croaky crooners worked well last year, so why not repeat it?

Or just not bother, and the BBC can spend the money it spunks on Eurovision on another 10 series of cash in the attic?

Brilliant! I love a good power ballad, me! Oh... no... hang on a minute. No... sorry... I thought I was German there for a minute

It'll probably win

Is it me, or does she look like an older, chubbier Tulisa Wotsit from nDubz/X-Factor?

[i]It'll probably win [/i]

It very definatly won't, and I'd imagine that's the desired outcome...

Anyway, I effing love Eurovision, and, ahem, will be going to Malmo to see it 🙂

Eurovision is one if the best night's TV of the year.

Get your mates round.

Get out the beer and crisps.

Have a laugh.

Play the "revving the tank engine" game where you predict the scores based on the military aspirations of the neighbouring countries or their ability to turn off the gas supply.

Indeed Harry. You can predict the winner of Eurovision, without hearing a note, by analysing which countries are trying to placate, or declare war on each other.

My cousin put this to the test one year with the bookies, and won an awful lot of money

parp - 😉

desmond child song sounding all country. Our Bonnie always had a good voice but its not a winner.

I love eurovision, its a hoot and one of the best TV nights there is, if only I was gay, then I'd be in heaven. Fabulous night.

Another good game when watching Eurovision is "Gay or European"

Eurovision party is always good fun, but Graham Norton isn't quite the same as Wogan.

Loser here, I quite like Engelbert's song last year 😳

Not convinced by this, but doesn't matter as it won't get anywhere. If you like the Eurovision final check out the qualifiers earlier in the week, it's like a circus freak show.

Indeed - I reckon they should get the bloke who narrates 'come dine with me' to do it!

I'd agree with this. Graham Norton is pants.

My wife watches CDWM - the sarcastic voiceovers are the only thing that make the programme vaguely tolerable.

I'd also like to hear Jeremy Clarkson's attempt at the Eurodrivel singing abomination. Millions of people intent on finding offence in everything would explode with faux-rage at his daft remarks about the different nations.

My favourite Eurodribble viewing 'experience' was watching it in a bar in Bruges with a few mates. It was almost better in a foreign language.

We only finished eighth with this one, so there's really no hope for the UK.

"holding out for a zero" 🙂

Chapeau, sir, chapeau.

TBH honest, as much as I love the awesomely wonderful awfullness that is Eurovision and look forward to it each year, I'm not sure anything will ever top

Hard Rock Hallelujah! 🙂

Ooh, Englebert's written to Bonnie to wish her luck:

"The loss of winning had me stepping on a loose unforgiving stone on a pyramid to paradise," he wrote.

"But paradise will always be there for someone else to triumph in fair judgement to pride our country again."

Well. Good. Thanks Englebert 😐
