Grandma’s frying fish and we’re on the plane dancing


There’s nothing like a good lyric. And you could argue that the title of this article is nothing like a good lyric. But it was once sung/rapped in our favourite TV show.

Naturally, it wasn’t sung/rapped in English. Instead, it was in Greek. Our singers/rappers were Argo, who you might remember from 2016. For the geek amongst us, the sixsome was Χριστίνα Λαχανά/Christina Lachana, Μαρία Βενετικίδου/Maria Venetikidou, Βλαδίμηρος Σοφιανίδης/Vladimiros Sofianidis, Κώστας Τοπούζης/Kostas Topouzis, Ηλίας Κεσίδης/Ilias Kesidis and Αλέκος Παπαδόπουλος/Alekos Papadopoulos. Contrary to every other song this millennium, their ethnic ditty didn’t make the Saturday night final. Their exclusive club has since been joined, but they were a little shocked when they went home from Stockholm on the Wednesday morning.
