Well I didn't watch it ( well not all of it);) but I think it is about time that we pulled the plug on this farce, if it wasn't for the licence payers of this country this thing would have died a death years ago.

For me it is more of a visual treat :naughty: than anything else, music has little at all to do with it.:cool:

Oi, clear off, it's top class entertainment and that's what the licence fee is intended to pay for!!

Full marks to the BBC for sticking with it, long may it continue!

Ah - the voice of reason. In actual fact interactive (or not) is pretty irrelevant, as the on/off switch or channel change buttons (away from the miscreant broadcast in question) provide sufficient choice of avoidance from this "entertainment" thrust upon us anually.

I gave it 'nil point' and went to the pub, where they had it on the TV's but without the sound. This was quite good, as you could take the wee-wee from the various weird caricatures without having to hear anything.

Eurovision has become one of those TV events that just has to continue in the UK, its a lot of fun to watch (alough I missed it last night) and great to laugh at. Its not often Europe gets a chance to be silly on such a grand scale (that dosent involve conflict)

Personally I watch it for Terry Wogan taking the pÃÃâ€*’ÂÂÂÂ*ss out of it. Brilliant.
