Nick: Ironically, this is the sanest thing I’ve seen for several hours. There are *cough* things to be ironed out from this performance. Nevertheless, there are some possibilities there… it really is, as I’ve been saying for weeks, either winning the thing or scoring nil. There are surprises to come, we haven’t seen yet what will be on the back of the trolleys. We’re hearing the chat from onstage at the moment, they ain’t happy. I suspect that they may be *cough* having problems with their in-ear monitors. They do, however, give the impression of knowing how to get it sorted out. It’s not as hideous as m’learned colleague is about to tell you it is.
Phil: Aaaargh it’s Car Crash TV – It’s TV’s Christopher Biggins in a silver frock doing all sorts of things on stage. It should be totally hideous … And yet … It really Isn’t. Believe me, it is not going to win by any stretch of the imagination but hell – it’s gonna get Europe in the mood for what is to come! Luckily I will only be seeing the UK entry in enough detail as I need to 😉 Let’s see what everyone around me thinks …
“Bland, insipid, awful, nauseating pap, badly thought-out, why do we bother? Out-of-tune, couldn’t carry a tune in a bucket.”
Don’t hold back lads. To be fair, watching it on screen in the Press Centre, it looks awful. The sound is off – maybe it’s a loose earpiece … again. They should, quite frankly, go back from whence they came.
Obviously Roy thinks it’s going to win.
