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?

There's another thread. Can we all come together for the main event?

Rise like a Phoenix now Whales

Me and DD have just been pissing ourselves laughing at BoM.

That's what your heartthrobs looked like back in the day DD, middle aged and hairy Grin

Hello! I won't be drinking so may not enjoy it...

What's the drill with how it all works then??

TheCanterburyWhales · 16/05/2020 19:33

I knew the BoM dance and have an old video of me and my cousin doing it at her party.
And all our dads looked like that. Feathery hair and moustaches.

Raahh · 16/05/2020 19:34

Piggy I'm not sure. They are going to show the 20 songs, and then we vote for our favourite on the BBC website, I think.

Or not, because their 'experts' are rubbishGrin

Whales I remember my dads shirts having those huge collars too.
He had floaty hair, well - a comb over tbh Blush

Me and my sister used to LOVE the German winner, Nicole. We used to play our tennis rackets like guitars and sing it, all dreamy-like.

PolaDeVeboise · 16/05/2020 19:36

Katrina!

pussycatinboots · 16/05/2020 19:36

A proper winner.
even if she wasn't english

TheCanterburyWhales · 16/05/2020 19:37

Oh yes. I had a German penfriend who sent me Nicole in German. I was thrilled! Always loved the songs in foreign best.

MuthaClucker · 16/05/2020 19:37

Katrina looks like she should be presenting Pebble Mill, bless her.

Raahh · 16/05/2020 19:38

Mutha I can still sing every word (in English, anyway Grin) - was it 1982?

I'm still sulking about Lordi, anyway.

MrsJoshNavidi · 16/05/2020 19:38

Good song though.

I miss Eurovision and the annual nul points humiliation 😢

pussycatinboots · 16/05/2020 19:38

Maybe our entries all ought to have oversized collars??

MuthaClucker · 16/05/2020 19:39

Must have been 82ish I think

1point21gigawatts · 16/05/2020 19:39

She's awesome!

But I remember thinking she was so old. She was younger than I am now. 😭😂

BladeOGrass · 16/05/2020 19:39

I hope they show Ruslana

1point21gigawatts · 16/05/2020 19:39

Katrina that is

MrsJoshNavidi · 16/05/2020 19:41

Soldi gets my vote I think.

Piggywaspushed · 16/05/2020 19:41

Thanks for the info and it is lovely to see lots if old faces here! To my shame, I am watching In For A Penny at the moment. This feels too early for Eurovision!

The choice of songs was so pants.

I can't believe they picked some of the ones they did. Its a very bizarre selection.
