3 weeks to knock this chest infection on the head otherwise I'm going to be that annoying one, coughing my lungs up all night. Urgh!
Still need to go through the remainder of the Hungarian songs, but I just really cba. It's always a chore and never a pleasure. Doubt there's anything better than Totova anyway.

So, my first Eurovision post of the 2017 season! And just to confirm, the UK have decided upon another public selection which will take place on Friday January 27th and will be aired not on BBC Four but promoted to BBC Two? The 6 songs will be revealed on Monday January 23rd. Have I got all that information right?

At least the BBC are making the effort! Joe and Jake was a good entry - let down by placing in the contest and poor staging. If we can build on that then we might finish on the left! Are Ukraine continuing the Swedes scoring from last year? I didn't like that.

I was actually fine with it when it came to the show, the run up I was totally negative, although Czechia getting 0 and then the UK only getting 8 points after a modest result with the juries was really deflating.

The full line up excluding the acts and songs is nothing at all - which is exactly where we're at now...

But yes I assume it's staying.
I hope they build on last year though after getting their first final placing, I've appreciated both songs in their return. |

I think I'll save the joys of A Dal until the actual show. That way all the crap ones just merge into one. I know how you feel and sympathise, I've been down with the lurgi since Christmas Eve! Not in any way fun.

Nope, he was an expert stage designer, I think.

I don't see how the Czech Republic getting 0 was mean, they would have come last under the old system so it actually helped them!

Now they've started the tradition though, I think we should run a thread closer to the contest where we predict who will get the big fat zero.

Getting 0 wasn't mean, it was announcing it to the world and his wife that was the mean part for me. They could have just not said anything. we'd have worked it out soon enough, but the casual viewing audience would probably never have given a thought to how many they got.

An idea might be just to reveal the top ten countries public votes and just add the remaining countries graphically -like they do with 1 - 10 points in the first part of the scoring. I agree. It wasn't the fact Czech got zero. It was the "nah nah nah nah nah Czech got nothing!" type revelation that I thought was a bit cruel.
