Anyone else want to chat shit and join me on Saturday night for Not-Eurovision on the BBC?

Or just share opinions on what were supposed to be this years entries to get their Eurovision fix?

Mr Norton ?!?

dillite · 16/05/2020 21:52

Well this is awkward

GinWithASplashOfTonic · 16/05/2020 21:52

Alright love don't rub it in 😂

Out of curiosity Outside of the uk and Ireland how well is Graham Norton known.

Yep the BBC has had a packed Eurovision schedule. I can attest to that.

Graham Norton is going to be commenting on this interview for years to come

JaneJeffer · 16/05/2020 21:52

I think Marty is cringing at the Graham interview Grin

pussycatinboots · 16/05/2020 21:53

Graham - God, that was awkward 🤣🤣🤣

Yep, I share your pain!

LetsGoFlyAKiteee · 16/05/2020 21:53

Just slightly awkward
Now..this is cute!

pinkrocker · 16/05/2020 21:54

Aw man I'm filling up ...

PotterHead1985 · 16/05/2020 21:54

What else are the beeb showing?

JaneJeffer · 16/05/2020 21:54

I hope Katrina is making a few bob from this!

dillite · 16/05/2020 21:54

They should just focus on Mr France for the entire time.

The80sweregreat · 16/05/2020 21:55

Where were you in 97 Graham ?
In a bar getting drunk I think ? I can't remember! ' Classic answer. Bless him

GinWithASplashOfTonic · 16/05/2020 21:55

It's just strange how of all the songs sung at Eurovision and all the countries. They chose little old us (and I mean that endearingly) and this song

Raahh · 16/05/2020 21:55

I am probably alone in not liking this song.

I always thought it was awful. Up there with with the Samantha Janus one Grin

That had me crying.

Its been lovely tonight but I'm still really sad.

I am missing one of my best friends and I don't know when I'll next be able to travel and see her.

We had a pact that if either of our countries won we'd travel to see the other and spend eurovision in the others country. We never thought it would actually happen. And then it did...

...so tonight is really bitter sweet.

I hope that next year I won't spend it with all of you (though I do really enjoy MN Eurovision every year, I'd rather take the better offer!)

I'm staying on for Rlyan, but I just want to be a bit soppy and say that I don't know any of you (Though I suspect someone has sussed me this week!) But your company is special and valued. Every last namechanging one of you.

I think it sums up lockdown !
I do like this song

JaneJeffer · 16/05/2020 21:56

I really like Mr. UK's voice.

Wired4sound · 16/05/2020 21:57

@RedToothBrush aww bless you have a big (slightly drunken unmumsnetty) hug from me Wine

Love51 · 16/05/2020 21:57

Powerplant · 16/05/2020 21:57

Loved it perfect ending night everyone x

pinkrocker · 16/05/2020 21:57

I liked it too, except Katrina's bit! See you all next year Wine
Ps I've not name changed as I'm a proud Euroviz fan Grin

PotterHead1985 · 16/05/2020 21:57

That was beautiful. I'm sticking around for Rylan too

EwwSprouts · 16/05/2020 21:58

Shine A Light was a nice touch, just a bit hard for some to hit the top notes.

JaneJeffer · 16/05/2020 21:58

I hadn't sussed you before RedToothBrush but now I know you're Gwyneth Paltrow.

EwwSprouts · 16/05/2020 21:58

RedTooth hope you get to Rotterdam next year.

The80sweregreat · 16/05/2020 21:59

Dh wants to see the lady in pink again next year! Can't think why? .. 😂
Hoping lockdown is over by next year !
