Abramovich paid all the other countries off to make up for Chelsea's loss in the Champions League, quite clearly

Yeah we should definitely start putting forward idiotic entries. Maybe move away from the music? Sex show?

Yea! Something stupidly outragous just to see what we can get away with...

agree
& i feel sorry for Andy abraham, he deserved a lot more than how ever many points we got

Totally agree. It wasn't the best song in the world but compared to most of them is was brilliant!

Lowest points total in 5 years from us.

Send Rick Astley and rickroll the **** out of Moscow!

dunker · 24 May 2008 at 23:18

i would'nt mind if that russian song was good but it was just meh, no better or worse than ours, they get 200+ points we got 9? we should take eurovision to eu high court for a breech of eu human rights on fairness.

That would be quality

I find it amusing until i realise that my taxes go to paying for this tripe.

Time to leave it now i think, for a competition that is supposed to demonstrate european unity is does a fantastic job of highlighting it's divisions.

Gimpymoo · 24 May 2008 at 23:22

Who do we contact to try and get Astley in Eurovosion next year?

What did we get in the end then?
Did we finish on 6? That was what I last noticed it as...

Edit: I think we should actually aim to be the only country to get 0 points every year from now on

The rest of the world punishes us for the Iraq debacle by:

1. Not voting for us in Eurovision

2. Gave us the 2012 Olympics

only gemini scored lower with nothing

inferno · 24 May 2008 at 23:25

The fact is , we produce better music than the rest of europe commercially , there is no need for us to actually try in europe. Like others said, send a stupid entry in!

Yup, Gemini were out of tune and got 0 points, Greece for one was out of tune (not hugely) and gets 3rd place. Strange eh.....?

Amp34 · 24 May 2008 at 23:26

So I guess it was the usual USSR voting for itself?

So, who voted for us then, Ireland and Malta? I hope we voted for Ireland this year as I felt bad last year for us not giving them any points..

Contemplating watching it if it comes on iplayer, is it worth watching the whole of it or just the second part?
