So Andrew Lloyd Webber is trying write the next Eurovision song to unite Britain. Other than its "camp" value does anyone care about Eurovision?

I hope to be proved wrong but I think it will end in another farce. apart from it being a camp specticle it is all political voting and at the moment we dont count

Never really liked any of his tunes, he always reminds me of the uncle that no-one wants to come to xmas dinner!! ;)

Eurovision is a complete farce but we already know that, most people only watch it for the novelty factor and so we can laugh at all the eastern europens voting for their neighbours!!

It's become a load of Balkans...and should be left to those partisan minnows to fight over for themselves. They're quite good at squabbling with neighbours. Unlike us sophisticated Brits in England,Wales,Scotland etc... who all love one another really.

Ah, it's time for the annual Eurocheese-fest.

We all know it's cobblers, that's what makes it entertaining as most of the other countries seem to take it very, very seriously!
I honestly think that some of the Eastern European states would quite happily go to war with each other over a dispute about voting in the Eurocheese.

I keep expecting to hear songs about children dying in the snow - or cheery ditties urging fellow countrymen to kill all the Gypsies and all occupants of their nearest foreign State.:D

The only good thing to ever come out of eurovision was Cheryl Baker, when I was wee I thought she was hot!! ;)

Still remember sonia the ginger scouse midget, her voice reminded me of running your fingernails down a blackboard!! [lol]

The last time we won was with Katrina and the waves and shes not even a brit!!! says alot really :(

Can you imagine if the US was in it?
They have more enemies than us so think that we would at least beat them at something as we would only be 2nd last and they last,we could do a deal with them to give each other 12 points like Igor and Vladimir do at the moment!!!

sorry but i think that the eurovision is very out dated now and should be removed of the tv, it is all about politics, so i can only assume this is why the uk comes near enough last ever year.

Eurovision Song contest is just an evening of torture, I usually go out or watch another channel.

The Father Ted episode with their 'Lovely Horse' tune sums it all up for me (if you haven't seen it, you've got to watch it!!)
Still, have to admit I will still watch it if it's on and I'm too inebriated to find the remote control. That would be a good marketing strategy to curb binge drinking.

So it's nothing to do with the songs being bloody awful then? :eek:
