Curled up on the couch with chocolates & wine, in the dark, like some guilty secret indulgence?
None of the above

For the first year in yonks, I won't be watching it and I'm feeling withdrawal symptoms already.

I have just listened to it deegs and I can see why your mum loved itquote:Originally posted by Deegs:quote:Originally posted by Marguerita:I am the same deegs Volara and lots of the Italian records I love like Lazy Mary is one of them I play them full blast lol it is compulsive viewing its so bad its good if you know what I mean lolquote:Originally posted by Deegs:quote:Originally posted by Marguerita:
I say every year what a load of old rubbish but I always find myself turning channels and catching bits of it, Volari was the best song ever to win the Eorovision song contest I still love it
Of course it's a load of old rubbish, Marg. But it's just soooooooo OTT and camp - especially the Eastern Bloc countries' performances. Compulsive eye-popping viewing
My darling Mam, bless her, used to love Eurovision. I even remember her buying a big ballad winner from Luxemburg back in the 80s ("Si La Vie Est Cadeau") - she had the thing playing at full blast for the rest of the year
Volare was a classic, Marg.
Just checked on YouTube.....my Mam's all-time favourite is still on there. Have a listen when you have time, and you'll understand why I was practically deaf throughout most of 1983!

Going out, hubby's birthday, off to meet family in Stoke for a curry

In which case, you'll probably be watching it by default
If the Eurovision thread tonight is even half as funny as last year's, keep a bucket close by
I watched the Immigrant Song Contest, on Newsnight, and I can't stop singing Boom Bang-a-Bang in an Afghan accent.

They had immigrant musicians singing some of our old entries, LL.
It was actually quite interesting to see them interpreted so differently. An Iranian band, who sang Congratulations by the Cliff, won it.
Norway are the favs to win tonight.

l've been listening to Clodagh Rogers singing "come back and shake me" Euroviso 1969
I watch it every year looking forward to Graham doing it just hope he takes the piss like Tez did
I'm disapointed Wogan wont be hosting it.
I only watched it to hear him become more drunk and racist as the night went on.

None of the above, Iâll be watching something (anything!) else.
I may watch the results bit at the end to see the Brits get f*ck all. Itâs worth a wry snigger to see the Brits pay for the pleasure of their European neighbours demonstrating how much they dislike them
I look forward to Eurovision every year
It's great entertainment and I remember the theard on the forum last year too - better than the show itself

Ronan Keating helped compose their entry.
I understand the UK is also a strong favourite.

Only used to watch Eurovision to see what Terry would have to say about each country.

I agree it won't be the same without him
I'm not that keen on Graham Norton.
i'll wet myself with excitment-i always do!
and?
nah. i love it, makes me
and?
nah. i love it, makes me
I'll be watching, surrounded by choccie and alcohol...weeping cos I'll be missing Terry, my Eurovision drinking buddy! Graham has no hope of being as brilliant as Terry...I may watch it with the sound off and radio2 on so I can hear the songs, see the mad people and listen to Ken Bruce and his opinions instead of Graham....
now I've confused myself!!!!
