And Cyprus. Lady Gaga wants her song back.
As for the UK I blame it all mostly on Brexit but the fat Newman boy was terrible.
Was glad Italy won.
A special thanks to Mashed and After 8 for the Zoom chat and Northern Sold's Black Lab pics. Oooh what a mess to clean up.

These so called "juries" are corrupt as fuck. France and Switzerland were shite. A lot of lobbying and backhanders on Sepp Blatter scale going on I recon.
Glad the public straightened these ex-Eurovision has been out.
Greece and Cyprus should banned...shameful.

The bottom line is that continental artistes see the contest as a springboard to international recognition, whereas any established UK artistes will usually be enjoying significant success overseas already and quite rightly view it as somewhat demeaning.

I suspect a fair proportion of those that voted for Brexit did so in the hope that we didnt have to endure this dreary gayfest any more.
But it goes on.
Didnt see it but as usual the UK entry is some complete unknown who sinks without trace.
Someone like Adele or massive gay favourite Robbie Williams should be ORDERED to compete.

We deserved to be in the top 10.
It’s bit like starting at the back of an F1 grid in your mums knackered 1980s fiesta, yes your in the race but you will never win.
Time to take our money and leave.

There’s always been a thing in Eurovision about incorporating traditional or folk elements into the countries songs to give them local authenticity. This year we should have done a sea shanty. Its massively “on trend”, traditional and camp as fuck. .

It's so bad it's almost good. Be more appropriate if it was called Afro vision though. It was very "diverse" was t it.

The three top songs didnt involve much euro fuckaboutery. They were just songs performed straight up well. Ours had dancers with trombones and a fat boy who couldn't sing his low notes and sounded like a radio 2 90s club hits filler. If they stop making songs for radio 2 audiences and took the competition seriously they might get somewhere. If the UK wasnt guaranteed to be in the final then they also might take it a bit more seriously.

I honestly believe that this show has contributed to Brexit over the years.
It’s certainly not been the same since Wogan left us.

Yes, I agree, I think it's highly likely that AH won't give a fuck - primarily because she's entirely lacking in self-awareness and is almost certainly one of those people who actually believes that amassing a fortune is the sole metric by which you measure success, the talentless, vacuous tart. Seems she's not the only one.

Italy song was fucking awful. UK not a winning song but obviously not a 0 point song amongst that shite.
Would imagine a good chance UK pulls out. Hardly any point in taking part. Let them all party without us. Literally meaningless.
As for Amanda Holden, well with circa £3m wealth I would say quite likely one of highest grossing people on show tonight. I don't think she will give a fuck about not being recognised by the continent in all fairness.

As I hear Graham Norton explaining that the Romanian presenter used to be an Olympic gymnast I find myself imagining viewers all over Europe having Amanda Holden explained. “She used to be married to Les Dennis”

As a rock fan, that Italian song was shit so a mental eurovision with a couple of awful songs at the top.
