Mine too. Now two of them are old enough to want to vote, our phone bill is just getting bigger and bigger. :D

I don't watch it read some news/watch some clips about it each year. I do wonder why the UK always enters pensioners for their songs. They were good in their day but all the other countries enter younger contestants who still have a strong voice :p:

I guess younger artists wouldn't do it, for fear of wrecking their credibility, or the music label won't let them. Bonnie Tyler and Engelbert Humperdinck haven't got much to lose. :)

I simply did not watch the farce

I watched it, and based my view on the current experience, rather than previous experience.

It's just another good reason for us to get out of Europe IMO :D

For anyone who suspects some of the voting is political - Azerbaijan's Prime Minister orders investigation into Russian nul points

I popped over and saw the summary of the acts...but heard someone overtalking who was annoying. I think he fancied his own voice more than anything else

That annoyed me, but from what I seen of the acts (and heard despite the annoying voice), it might have been bearable, if I had nothing else to watch

Its about time someone had the bottle to take on Eurovision, everyone knows the shows vote are rigged.

If it's rigged, how come one of the ex-Eastern Bloc countries didn't win?

The show is totally Political - simple as that.

The show has a political element, yes. 'Totally', however? No.
