Eurovision

[vetuste_ennemi]

Watching this on BBC4. (Naturally, darlings, I wouldn't have dreamed of watching it if it had been on any other channel).

Some key points from VE:

Features TV's greatest presenter: Ryland.

Super song from one of Britains' greatest exports: Australia.

First showing of a new fusion genre by the Portuguese entry: fado rap.

And my predictions?

The new fusion genre will not get the voters excited, but the Australian entry will do well.

What are your predictions?

I predict that Greece will vote for Cyprus and Cyprus will vote for Greece.

[JimF]

Never understood the "nul points" thing which seems to have entered the nation's collective consciousness - it's not even correct French!

My prediction, I think I will be washing my hair that evening, yes I've still got some, so probably will not see it, never mind there's always next year ;o)

Oh yes. Lucky us, we go straight to the final. I predict deux points for us there. (Forgive my attempt at French - I did German at school.)
