Title: Eurovision Song Contest
Post by: Pete on March 19, 2012, 06:32:11 PM: Just to save the other thread from going further off topic - lets put ESO stuff here. :)

I think we'll lose again because the judges won't be able to stop laughing at our OAP singer. :o

Why does anyone think we stand a chance with Humperdink?

Im sure BBC pump some money in to this, but I cant prove it.
Begs the question why, when the cut back on other stuff.

We arent ever going to win it again as everyone votes for their neighbouring country.

Just proves that its talentless shite as once again Jedward are 'singing' for Ireland.

Post by: ~Aitch~ on March 21, 2012, 01:28:49 PM: Engelbert, apparently ..... with equally vomit inducing songs as his current one.
