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).

    • I’m basing it on the fact that Jeremy Corbyn had repeatedly and on record said he is against mandatory vaccinations in any situation, and he wouldn’t disclose wether he had the Covid vaccine himself    as I said. Not as bad as his brother but very definitely a bit weird about the whole thing. Just say you had the vaccination Jeremy, say that everyone should and stop being weird in the middle of a global pandemic    it’s the same slippery evasive nonsense about Brexit and him. About Putin poisonings and him.     if you are happy with his evasiveness then you do you.  But there is a reason the country wouldn’t get behind him 
    • It was my understanding that Jeremy Corbyn was embarrassed by his brother and had distanced himself from his brother's views. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong. Why on earth should "the overall view of that family inform Jeremy's response to the pandemic"? What exactly are you basing that assumption on?
    • I guess it's best to do what most Brits do these days, keep your head down and say nothing! although that's probably why this country is in the mess it is today!  😞
    • @Dulwichway Absolutely - I'm in no way trying to say that what happened was life-changing. I've encountered way worse situations and think of myself as pretty tough, which is why I took them on and got pelted. I suppose I'm just taken aback because the park always seemed so safe. But the stats I've just posted contradict that.   I suppose the one of the points of this thread is to point out that they weren't just numpty youths - I'd bet money on some of them being involved in more serious criminality. And to tell others to be vigilant.
