Bonnie Tyler chosen as Eurovision UK entry

Welsh pop singer Bonnie Tyler has been confirmed as the UK representative at the 2013 Eurovision Song Contest.
The 61-year-old, best known for her 1983 hit Total Eclipse of the Heart, said she was "honoured" to be asked.

Interesting choice. Hope she does well though I doubt she has much of a chance.

Re: Bonnie Tyler chosen as Eurovision UK entry
Good luck to Bonnie in the non-event of the year.
Why does this junk get televised every year? Do people actually watch it? Does anyone actually give a damn?
The only thing it used to have going for it was Wogan extracting the urine, but now he has gone, it is decidedly "Nil Points" and high time for it to be canned.

Well you know the rules, in the unlikely event that she wins she will be British otherwise she's Welsh

Well, she is a bit of a non-entity as far as I'm concerned.

Re: Bonnie Tyler chosen as Eurovision UK entry
She's still pretty 'popular' to some on the Swansea 'entertainment' circuit.

That may well be, but I don't recall her doing anything of significance since the mid 80s?
