Although I have zero interest in this competition, is it just me or does it seem bizarre that the song chosen to represent our country has the first three words in German?

I’ve not even heard it, I don’t know the song or the person or people singing it!

I quite enjoy Eurovision, simply for the comic value, and I truly miss Sir Tel as our presenter. He had me in stitches.

I used to watch it just for his commentary. Much missed.

Bonkers! A typical UK eccentric on the loose!
Sounds a bit shouty shouty to me, but what do I know?

I guess eins, zwei, drei maybe hits the spot more than a romantic un, deux, trois in his bouncy delivery.

He lived and worked in Germany if that makes any difference, and the contest is in German speaking Vienna. But what do I know again!?

It will either do incredibly well or will sink like a stone.

I miss Terry as well. Graham Norton doesn't do a bad job but he'll never match Terry.

I had a friend who would throw a party every year. She'd dress up in the host country's national dress and prepare food from that country as well

She was quite obsessed. Sadly she died a couple of years ago so now we shall watch in a more sedate fashion.

It's so bad it could do well. It is different, is there any value in doing anything substantial, we will only get Nil points, worth a go, going totally bonkers, Hope he does OK.

No idea who or what our song or singer is, I have very little interest in it No idea why Australia and Israel are in EUROvision that seems totally bizarre to me. The whole thing is just screamy and bonkers and to me it should be entitled ‘ ‘Who can be the weirdest’
And ….I ve got to miss Casualty
