Eurovision

[Mick Mac]

Looks like UK and Ireland (not sure those terms are mutually exclusive) are fighting it out for the bottom 3 places.

Also - Does noone from the UK want to present Eurovision? Terry Wogan and now Graeme Norton present on the BBC.

It is a show that needs a bit of humour though, so I guess a uk presenter is ruled out.

1ST: Germany

Last : United Kingdom

Hope that is the last time we see that this summer........:(

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

Why do most countries sing in English? Trying too hard. Stick to your native language.

[ruffers]

Not done us much good has it?

[Mick Mac]

next year the UK entry will be in German....

and we will be playing 4-4-2

[Narnia]

In 1974 West Germany finished equal last and went on to win the World Cup!

[Michael Palaeologus]

Would we want to win this contest of the mediocre? To win would be embarrassing

Popular musically we can hold our heads up high with the Beatles, Stones, Led Zeppelin and Paper Lace all being from these shores.

Far better to put in a shite entry, come last and take the piss out of the whole thing.

Next years UK entrant has to be

That ....

"Winning" song by Germany was written by an english songwriter & performed in english ( with a silly impersonated moc irish twang )

Still, they've got all the pleasure of having it "blared" across the airwaves at them all summer long

Serves 'em right...

( Ooo don't get me started on the presenters, he looked like "pee wee Hermans" love child & ... )

W**F

>Next years UK entrant has to be John Shuttleworth

But Shuttleworth is a radio man.

I suppose changing it to the EuroAudition Song Contest would be out of the question?

What would be the economic consequences?

American and Danish I thought. Julie Frost and John Gordon

I reckon next years representatives for the UK should be the Sugababes, by that time they'll have shed another three members and will be up for it.

Get SAW to knock up a tune, we're upper fifteen at least.

Salvage a little dignity, anyway.

[HonaloochieB]

Mind, my first loyalty is with Ireland.

Get Morrisey up there for 2011. Come on Steven Patrick, play up fer th' auld sod.

Even if he just rejigs a previous song, Everyday Is Like Good Friday, Swede&PotatoHead, The Last Of The Ganger Men To Die, just anything really.

Come on, Moz, it'd mean so much to us.

[DJKillaQueen]

Last years effort, Jade, IS now in the sugarbabes lol. Maybe Westlife will adopt Josh :)

I did quite like the Dancemob across Europe... although it was noticeable that the Brits were the only ones who appeared to be freestyling as opposed to bothering to learn the dance...
