The first semi final is on tonight and the second is on Thursday. Sweden are tipped to win, but theres no chance, not with all the Eastern European states voting for each other.

I love Icelands entry!! Its soooo camp!:D

I think Sir Cliff should be presented with a winner's prize for Congratulations, after it recently came to light that Gen. Franco nobbled the votes in 1968 so Spain's La La La took first place, when in fact Britain had won.

Ok, it's forty years ago, but it's our only chance of ever winning again, with all the political block voting that goes on.:D

The Irish entry is a singing Turkey, its 7 to 1 to win, we are 13 to 1, which just about sums it up for me:eek:

The most scandalous thing about it is the way the BBC keep spending licence payers money to broadcast it.

I go to Malta frequently and I've been there several times when they've been picking their entry for Eurovision. You would not believe how seriously they take it and how important the contest is for them. Unfortunately, as it happens, the Maltese songs are always crap.

I wonder how much longer Terry Wogan can go on commenting on this farce. He is hated throughout Europe for his irreverent comments and I'm pretty sure he is on several countries' death-lists. :eek:

cherokee 24-05-2008 23:06

Re: Eurovision
 
Terry mentioned tonight that he had to decide wether he wanted to carry on next year , so hes obviously thinking of quitting,
I was surprised we didnt get anything from malta cus we usually do..

Re: Eurovision
 
What a load of tosh, and I say that as someone who was a fan of the camp fest that was Eurovision.

Bring back the Iron Curtain, and just have the competition for western Europe, or call it a day.

I could detect in Tel's voice tonight that he might be fed up with it as well now.

Re: Eurovision
 
Didn't watch it, in fact haven't watched it for years, but it seems the prodictions were right, if we know in advance that we are going to come last, not because of the song, but because who we are, its time to save licence payers money and jack it in, its not a competition, its a best frinds back slapping night:mad:
