    Did you see the size of the Maltese male singers eyebrows?????

    About the only one who is not gay I presume? Otherwise he would have shaped them better!

    Breaking news as I write - Malta have got a point!!!!

    Hoorah.

    Finland have won!!!!

    So for next year I think you might find some REALLY weird outfits from most of the countries.

    As I said before what's happened to the good old days - bring back Abba!!!

    Well its all over. Finland has won.

    Another vindication that good music is anathema to the Eurovision.

    I wouldnt have it any other way.

    It was touching to see the orcs with bunches of flowers presented to them. Rock and roll.

    My wife works for Clarins - she says that the Finnish entry need some skin products - no wait, they really are beyond help.

    What do you mean that isn't really their skin?!

    Anyway another Eurovision year is over - let's do it all agian next year, hoping that sense will prevail, knowing that it won't.

    How did ISRAEL get into the EUROvision anyway?

    Is it something to do with Jesus?

    That's what I was wondering.

    Absolutely no idea as to how you can call Israel European.

    Europe thinks it's a superpower now doesn't it?

    I am trying to work out whether it is the King of the North (Finland etc?) or the King of the South (Spain, Malta etc?).

    Katie - google is your friend.

    If memory serves, I think it's got something to do with "Eurovision" being the name of a broadly pan European (but including Israel) broadcasting network (a collective of individual broadcasters that is), who did the song contest many moons ago as a way of - well - doing something to justify their existance as a collective. I'm sure the internet will provide you with a much more reliable explanation than that. But I think you're right, Jesus told them to do it.

    Tonight it was very obvious that the Eurovision song contest is politicised I was able to guess correctly so many times where the tens and twelves would go, usually to the neighbours to keep them happy eg Andorra to Spain, Croatia to Bosnia, Moldova to Romania, Cyprus to Greece, Russia to Ukraine etc
