Very astute comment by Becky on the British (traditionally Eurovision) entry looking out of place. I think last year's winners may have had a lasting effect - there's far more musical crunch than I'd have expected at the Eurovision and even (shock, horror) more than one song that I'd probably buy were it out as a single - Finland's Evanescence-lite and the strangely hypnotic Bulgarian thing.
Haven't enjoyed a Eurovision so much for years. Mind you I haven;t watched one for at least 20 years!

Seems the Fins have got it cracked. Any chance you could do an audio feed next year? I wonder if Uncle Tel would like a year off?

Mmmm Serbia well at least we are no longer bombing them.

Finland did very well.

Wogan sounds like your old and confused great uncle who no longer understands what's going on in the world and is still quietly outraged that women have the vote. Becky I would certainly support any campaign to replace him as long as it's not with some other duffer.

Thank you babes. You cannot imagine how hard I have been working last months. I see UK is doing full effort avoiding the hasle ;)

Seriously, it was fun but time to move on now. Eurovision is so passe already.

Well done Finland for the show.

Now its Serbias turn to be bankrupted staging the next one while the other nations breath a sigh of relief.

Serbia won... not sure what I think of the song, but well done.

Finland put on an excellent show too. :)

We've got plenty of experience in that.

Damn.. someone gave us points. Coming last is one thing, but it's almost a badge of honour to be so bad no bugger votes for you....

Anyone want to join a campaign to get rid of Wogan as the British Eurovision commentator? It's obvious he doesn't want to do it, and his constant carping about the block voting is really starting to grate.

Armenia - I think eurosong fatigue is setting in. This just isn't making an impact at all.

Turkey that means belly dancing.

Jane here, the set is fantastic. The Euro dance entries are far more sophisticated than yester year. But I'm not sure about the sparkley eyebrow makeup.

Really liking the Bulgarian entry. The standards really seem to have improved over the last couple of years. I think the UK might lose out because it's jokey camp entry is suprisingly looking almost out of place.

Becky: Actually this is growing on me. Might be the wine. :)

One of the singers is well known in british tranny circles as one of the band members in Boy s Will Be Girls

Becky: Sue Pollard has really let herself go.

Jane: So many glitter balls died for those costumes: Let's hope it was not in vein.

What Frank Sinatra would have sounded like if Germany had won the war.

Shocking. Shouldn't be allowed, etc.
