That tweet reminds me of "Redfoo and guest"


Or "Anna Wintour and former tennis player" - who knew how almost accurate that would come to be.

I liked Bosnia, I thought it was well staged and deserved to qualify over generic stuff like Malta and Azerbaijan, although I really liked Greece too, Euro-rap ftw! :
Well staged? Poor Ana was dressed in Marathon runner tinfoil.
Well yeah, there was that... But they had inexplicable barbed wire, over dramatic hand gestures and a crazy rapper, what wasn't to like?
When I die I want to come back as that cello.

Just seen on Twitter (totallly may be untrue) that Amir is going to sing at the 'Opening Ceremony' for Euro2016.

Also I have the DVD for the 2004 contest, highly random I know!

He'll be continuing the grand tradition of the European Championships and Eurovision...

(the bemused reaction of the audience at the end may explain why this song was never heard of again)

I remember that being on BBC Two and it was too much for Britain to handle!

Her hair is just foul there.

So tonight, I'm hosting a rewatch of the 2004 Final. What time is best for everyone?

I could do either 7, 8 or 9. (Although I don't really want to miss Springwatch! )

Preferably earlier. I'll probably end up ducking out for BB launch. I know it's trash but I can't help it.

I'm afraid I won't be able to join, going bowling and McDonalds with friends

I'm trying to think...... Belgium's song was my favourite and I also really liked Spain, Turkey, Albania and FYR Macedonia, and Serbia and Montenegro. Israel's song was one of the worst ever and Deen's entry was bad too. Overall, it was quite a poor year but the winner was good

Have fun guys

1944 is a good song to work out to.

It'll be like 2012 all over again. Watching Eurovision in a puddle of sweat.

I will be around for 6, although will have to pop in and out as will be making dinner around the time as well.

What other years would people like to do? We never got round to watching the glorious car crash of 1991 last time.

Rats, I can't make it.

Lisa will have to make sure Ruslana wins again, and someone please throw a few points to the delightful Julie Zahra? Will Lisa Andreas reach those notes this time as she sings through her nose?

Have fun!

Hopefully this should work as I've never done of these myself before: https://www.watch2gether.com/rooms/oavl01dh1jsago2q

I'll look at starting at about five minutes past 6 just so we've got everyone together that can make it, this should be fun.
