Well you say that, but Show-ponies appear to encouraged...

It's just a pity a certain song about Pink Ponies in a club was not included, but... But... There is always this instead!:

Got it in one @AndyRM!!

"I hate it and never watch it, but I want to tell everyone, like some sort of weird virtue signaller!"

I think you misunderstand. I like it but now it's spread over three events and not one, it's not what it used to be... which was one night of cheese.

I once went to a Eurovision themed pub night hosted by an ex contestant. Possibly even an ex winner, I forget. It was organised by a friend of a friend of a friend.

I didn't enjoy it.

I'm boycotting it.

But it's a free holiday if you win ...

Ignore the semi's and just watch the final?

The pay, more than other countries. It's really popular there.

last time i checked they were not even on the same continent, yes i know some places are not technically " Europe " but ozz is pushing it a bit even for my geographic knowledge

I'm boycotting it.

For the 40th consecutive occasion?

Going on what you said at the beginning of this thread, that is most revealing!! 😆

Triple Triggered? 😝

but all the really fun trashy stuff is filtered out of the finals... like i say, it's good but not good enough to warrant three nights

In blue are the members of the EBU, who are responsible for the programme (Russia are yellow because they're suspended).

Technically, any of them can participate if they want to.

I could imagine the 'Once a year I will point this out because I think I'm so smart but do not understand it isn't actually Europe' idiots would have a heart attack if all the others competed too! 😆

I love eurovision for all it's kitchness, bonkers songs and political voting.

With a nod to @DCLane, I have never shagged Rita Marie Stroud or given Gina G just a little bit.

(my bet is on Sonia btw DCL)

Good call, I forgot about Gina G and her knicker flashing.
