I have formulated a plan to stare at the ceiling tonight when Eurovision is on. To make it more interesting I have decided to paint a perfect square and watch it dry right before my eyes.

It will be interesting to see if it dries from the outside of the circle in or in random patches. Please do report your findings.

Well I watched Eurovision. I have no idea why Norway won, their song was rubbish and the bloke had a face liked a smacked bum.
There were some fantastic women on show however, making up for the appalling music. The girl from Iceland was particularly gorgeous, and her song was easily the best of the night. The lady from Azerbaijan was also stunning. Not quite sure that Ukrainians have "got it" yet though, and as for the Germans.....what can I say?
Congratulations to the UK for once again entering exactly the sort of song that has got no chance in this kind of competition. And why put someone as hideously ugly as Andrew Lloyd Webber on the stage?
Anyway, more importantly, what about Graham Norton? He wasnt quite Terry Wogan, but he has the right kind of humour and his campness kind of fits in nicely.
Those suspended swimming pools were a little surreal.
Did anyone else find Turkey's number interesting?????

I actually flicked over for a minute and caught Belgium. If I cared enough I would have voted for her.

We had Sky HD put in yesterday so spent all day watching just about everything being broadcast in High Def - and that included Eurovision.

Definitely seemed like there was less political voting going on but I did miss Terry Wogan for when it did occur!

I was fortunate enought to be sat in a pub with a load of strangers celebrating some blokes 60th who I've only met twice, looking back i think i'd rather have been watching eurovision, I'd have voted for Germany just for Dita von Teese 8) :oops:

I did'nt watch it but saw on the news this morning that they said the voting was better now that the political, tactical voting had been removed. How did they do it different?

Re:Eurovision

Sun, 17 May 2009 12:42:28 GMT

I believe they had a panel of 'music experts' judging and awarding points too.

You have to be kidding? She looked horrible.

Iceland - she was stunning, and the female singer from Azerbaijan was also gorgeous. The singer from Turkey was lovely looking too, even though she looked like she liked a beer.

I'm with you Mr Macbeth. Have watched it ever since I was knee high to a grasshopper. It is just a must watch in our house, just for the hell of it. Much better with the new voting system it has to be said

The Eurovision song contest is one of those things that you totaly forget about outside europe. In the fifteen years I've been in the States, I don't think I've seen one US news item about it )

Britain's got talent on the otherhand, is a regular morning show staple. That's OK though.
