Ah Eurovision...

[elisi]

Terry Wogan: And now we come to song 13...
Darcy: 13? Already?
Me: It's been 45 minutes.
Darcy: God - it's like being sucked into a black hole!

Currently I'd say the best ones are Latvia and Germany... how bizarre!

ETA: Lithuania? Bwahahahaha! *So* going to get the British vote.

The UK wasn't too bad - strange.

And Finland is just too ridiculous! *shakes head*

ETA2: How do other countries cope without Terry Wogan? He's been commenting for the UK for ever and ever and is wonderfully cynical!:)

Re. the feathery thing on stage now: "And now the birds are angry - attacking the intruders of Bird Land" 

Re. Nana Mouskouri's "In a way everyone's a winner." "That's right - there are no losers in this competition!"

Re. Spain: "Spain just gave up years ago, didn't they?"

Re. the Parthenon, imparting information: "I know stuff!"

*happy sigh*

I think I'll go make some tea and find some biscuits.

Hee! indeed. :)

His comment re. Nina Muskouri(?): "Someone stop her!"

Latvia was lovely and their little robot thingy sweet, but I doubt they'll win.

Finland in the lead? Come on! Fun costumes, but the "rock"? Sucked. IMHO.

And no one voted for Latvia. Oh, well.

Why do I even wtach this?

[elisi]

Funny costumes do a winner make!

And we watch it for Terry Wogan's comments. :)

I think I watch it from sheer need to not think to hard - we just watched "Munich" which was exhausting!

Our guy just talked about a "taste border" that divides Europe. Mmmhhhkay.

Sounds like a good reason!

And a 'taste border'? Hmmm, you mean half the countries don't have one? *g*

[mefnord.livejournal.com]

Heeeeeeeee. No taste indeed *shakes head at results so far*


"taste border" as in Scandinavians vote for each other, as do the eastern countries.

I *loved* drunk Dutch guy. And ow cool is it that it's still daytime in Oslo?

Terry's comment to the VERY LOUD Armenian lady: "And you don't need a microphone!"

But yeah, crazy results. Ah, Europe is a odd place. Gotta love it though.
