We are watching it sing along style while dd prances about in her leg warmers.

Oh no - Terry was the best thing about Eurovision. We're not getting bloomin' Graham Norton instead are we?

Raahh · 11/01/2009 20:28

Yes I think Graham is taking over from Tel. I like Graham though..But, Tel was the reason i have continued watching (cos it has long since become a political thing!!)

Am not at all surprised the acts are all x-factor wannabe/stage school rejects...

How surreal...because dh and I spoke about this the other night...whilst I watched and he didn't (thank god for Laptop-mobility )..and we agreed, that should Terry Wogan ever stop doing it than Graham Norton might be quite good....not as good as Terry Wogan...but I think Graham has a good sarky wittyness...!

Anyway, Charlotte was dreadful...no idea who thought that song would be a good choice for her or who gave her vocal input for this number, but t didn't work...you couldn't understand a word she sang...so unclear and a bit weird, really!
But Damian had a bit of an attitude problem, I think....so, glad he went!

I really like Jade and Panto Boy-what's his name...

cornsilk · 14/01/2009 14:42

I also thought Damian had an attitude, he came over as being quite arrogant.

Raahh · 17/01/2009 18:46

thought i would watch this tonight. Bad start- group version of brotherhood of man . Then, oh lordy - the twins were awful!! so shouty. This programme is just really bad!!

Raahh · 17/01/2009 19:38

good- glad Charlotte went out- her voice was just not good enough, and she was too young.

FairLadyRantALot · 17/01/2009 20:31

thing is....take charlotte church and how young she started but her voice was fab...she was so young....so age is really not an excuse! Am glad she is out..pretty girl, very cutesy/doll looking thing, but her voice was just not good enough!

I think Mark is my favourite, and if we were to play this as a strategy game it would make sense to have him representing the UK....he can sing, he seems utterly lovely and he is very gorgeous ...and I think women tend to be more likely to actually vote!

ladycornyofsilke · 25/01/2009 18:54

Anyone else still watching this?

Raahh · 31/01/2009 19:15

OMG this has got worse- the song is dreadful, and the whole thing is beginning to really look like the Peter Kay spoof. The twins are truly truly awful.

Why am i watching this? Why???

FairLadyRantALot · 31/01/2009 19:18

lol...the song is a musical song....not sure it is a eurovision song....so far I want mark to win this....although, whilst I don't rte the twins that much, they did well with the song...jade is on now...

catweazle · 31/01/2009 19:22

What a dirge

Eurovision needs jolly.

differentID · 31/01/2009 19:23

They've set it up th ewhole time for Jade to win. Did you all hear the discouraging comments to Mark?

FiveGoMadInDorset · 31/01/2009 19:24

Awful song

FairLadyRantALot · 31/01/2009 19:32

oh the twins are howling again....they are soooooo out of tune....are they not?

oh, earlier on, you know in jades first song...I am sure one of the dancers was on the Dirty Dancing competition....although, might got that wrong...he just looked really familiar somehow...

docket · 31/01/2009 19:33

great voice. thin arms

Ivykaty44 · 31/01/2009 19:36

first bloke that sung that song - it was bad

second lot - was ok

third one - sort of song got lost in her voice, she needs something more to let out the bag.

Naboo · 31/01/2009 19:44

oh my days - the lulu take that thing is BUTT CLENCHINGLY AWFUL. WHAT is with the shades and spangly jacket? We know your a grandma just get over it. Oh that was painful. That tall hairy girl as well, dear god, WHY am i watching this...?

FairLadyRantALot · 31/01/2009 19:45

oh last years russian entry is on.....was he the one that had that icedancer as a background dancer???

thumbwitch · 31/01/2009 19:49

oh am watching it and praying it;s Jade.

FairLadyRantALot · 31/01/2009 19:49

awww mark is out...shame...

oh and Jade won....surprise surprise....

thumbwitch · 31/01/2009 19:50

oh good!
DS (nealry 14mo) was dancing along to her singing Lady marmalade earlier - I used to sing that in band when I was pg with him, wonder if he recognised it?

thumbwitch · 31/01/2009 19:52

I don't like the song much though.

FairLadyRantALot · 31/01/2009 19:54

lol witch...

ets hope jade isn't going all emotional when she sings in russia...because, well, that just now was awful...lol

thumbwitch · 31/01/2009 19:59

ho yes - just thinking that too - remembering the girls being knocked out of the Maria comp, they all managed to sing their farewell song ok; and even that Alexandra bird sang her victory song better than that.
Ah well, fingers crossed - they'll need to work on her nerve control etc.

FairLadyRantALot · 31/01/2009 22:56

indeed...
