They stopped sending anything sensible in because it costs too much. :D However weird Eurovision gets, I'll still watch it if I'm in because a) Terry Wogan, b) it's a laugh and c) Terry Wogan.

I don't like the style of music, I sit there and go "god this is awful" then the next entry and I'm "OK, I was wrong - THIS is awful!"... and yet then in the voting I can't help but be upset when the worst entry wins (due to obvious vote-rigging) and the least worst one gets four points total. But there's no denying that the contest, in which the Moldavian entry got banned for being openly pedophilic, Ukraines entry consisted of transvestites in fantasy space suits, and where Dustin the Turkey will merely be in the weirder third of the starting field, is very entertaining. I wonder if it's at all possible to parody the eurovision song contest. I suspect no. Eurovision is weird.

All I can say is his singing voice is only about as flat and nasal as that of Dervish's singer last year - at least we have the excuse of the song actually being a pisstake this time!

The eusovision is a overlong novelty act that is embarrassing and unwanted but still happens every year against everyone's wishes (kinda like relatives visiting at christmas). If you take it seriously, you may do well, you may even win the thing. But you lose at life. Badly. The solution is obvious. Send in the turkey. And just about dustin, he's a genuinely funny puppet making jokes that the kids like but slipping in a few for the older people too. In fact if he wasn't a puppet he'd be sacked long ago for inappropriate jokes for kids (eg. "and this was a real award, not some stupid "oh god larry gogan's gonna be dead soon let's give him a lifetime achievement award we haven't got much time" award.) He's a national institution and an essential part of growing up here. And he's taking the piss what of needs the piss taken out of it. It’s very simple.
