It looks like he's been giving Bob 'fashion tips'.

I think Bob is either a cross-dresser or an hermaphrodite.

Isn't that nice he's congratulating the Eurovision winner.

We've co-opted Sean. He's the UK's official Eurovision entry next year.

We want to endear them, not scare the screaming heeby-jeebies out of them!

The beard is this years gimmick. Next year we're going to go with the look of the love child of Borat and Elvis. Obviously we're changing your name to Borat Presley.

What is the big deal with it? There are so many singing reality shows anyways and many do not care about them. Why anyone cares about it? Music is gauged on opinions anyways. Not a sport.

I have no idea. It's stupid and embarrassing.

Just one more reality show, what's the difference it's just one more right? and one more and one more...
Pretty soon they will have Justin Bieber bath time reality show or...?

Except that Eurovision is over 50 years old. The countries' broadcasters are the ones who are really competing. They want the prestige of a high place, but not the ruiness cost of winning.

Is that why England sent what's 'er name?
I caught the "highlights" (or lowlights depending) on TV news this morning, and she looked like a paraplegic with arms worked by strings from the rafters...
(And sounded like a flat-pitched donkey being chainsawed)

Worth it for the Polish entry, if you ask me.

FYI: "Euurovision" is not a music show or contest. The "Eurovision Song Contest" is.
"Eurovision" is a television distribution network, managed by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU). All sorts of programs are distributed through Eurovision, from sportscasts to operas to documentaries and news.

Eurovision is the original, if you choose to care about any it should be that one. I don't, mind you.

That's like saying "The Super Bowl is only a football game". It's a tradition that's been going for nearly sixty years - people have parties and dress up as ABBA. It's a fun way to waste an evening. And maybe it contributes slightly to international peace and understanding.

In what way does the ESC even remotely resemble a reality show? It's a competitive music festival the likes of which have been going on for centuries. The only difference with this one being that it is televised live in all the participating countries (and allegedly China and Australia) and the audience gets a say in who wins. It's not a talent contest - most countries pick their performer from the top of the national music tree (a policy which UK used to adopt and may finally have realised they have to return to according to reports here this morning). And whilst it can be a tad bizarre at times that's no more bonkers than festivals which involve chucking coloured powder or tomatoes at each other. It's entertainment and spectacle and ritual, circus and gladiators all thrown into one night. Read your history. You'd be surprised how popular that sort of thing has always been!

Seriously, all this talk of Bacon going up and no-one talks about flying pigs?

If pigs could fly I'd fly a pig
To foreign countries small and big
To Italy and Spain
To Austria where cow bells ring
To Germany where people sing
And then come home again
I'd see the Ghangis and the Nile
I'd visit Madagascar's isle
And Persia and Peru
People would say they'd never seen
So odd so strange an air machine
As that on which I flew
Yes everyone would raise a shout
To see his trotters and his snout
Come floating from the sky.
And I would be a famous star
In all the countries near and far
If only pigs could fly
