You're right, it's all about the music, which is why the Czech Republic has gone for tone deaf Tereza Kerndlov?

When are we going to learn, stop selecting dreadful power ballads and either enter Philippa Forrester (ooh, there's a thought to send a man weak at the knees) or a troupe of acrobatic dwarves dressed in caveman outfits?

There was certainly something strangely alluring about the old panel system of scoring: a bunch of greying middle-aged oddballs drinking sherry, debating chord structures and then voting for the same country as last year.


But at least with the advent of the public vote, one of the best three songs usually tends to win.


'You can't fool the general public' as Pete Waterman once said, without a hint of irony.

"The public gets what the public wants" as Jam said long time ago. I want Greece, Sweden or Ukraine...For those who've said don't watch it before the final: some of the best performances are in the semi finals (e.g. Dustin the turkey, the pirates, those who sang about vegetables etc).

    • @NewWave I know how you feel. Like you, I've lived and spent prolonged periods of time in some pretty crazy places and always thought I could handle a bunch of kids. But, no - they got to me and I was shaking like a leaf afterwards. That's what age does to us.  But I did engage with them, so bear that in mind.  My advice would be to never let anything like that stop you doing the things you love. I'm certainly not going to stop using the park, there's no way they get to take away our cherished spaces!  If you see them, just change tack and keep out of their way. My dog won't even go that way again, so that's that problem solved. (If I see them again, I'm going to keep taking photos from a safe distance). 
    • Truly horrific. Being passive or fighting back is what many of us think about by violent theft. 
    • What ridiculous waste of money 
    • Lots of good primary schools within reach of there. Fairlawn, Goodrich, Ivydale and Horiman. Secondary schools you will definitely get into the Harris Academies or Sydenham Girls or Forest Hill Boys, you might just be on the boundary for the East Dulwich or North Dulwich Charter but it changes every year.
