Aah, Eurovision fever is nearly upon us! YAY (Semi final tomorrow 8pm BBC3, Final Saturday 8pm BBC1). I can't wait!

There's a thread on TV Forum but that just talks about the news etc. I want to know opinions! Do you have a partay or go to the pub or sit in a hole in the ground for three hours?

Have you heard any of the songs from the contest this year that you like or hate? If so why not say we can sound sad together!

My favourites this year are Turkey, France, Russia, Norway, Hungary, Iceland, Greece, Lithuania, Austria, Israel and Ireland. (To name a few ;) ).

No, it was on BBC Three.

The first time I've spent most of an evening on that channel, but not too bad.

I heard on radio 1 today that Javine is being treated for a sore throat. They played a snippet of her rehearsing and she did sound pretty awful.

I doubt very much that it will grace my t.v screen. I will however be disappearing off to my local tomorrow to watch Arsenal and Man U.

It has been kept very quiet this year, as they usually do make a huge song and dance about it, I only found out it was on because of the TV Guide.

But I won't be watching as I'm going out tomorrow night, but if I was in, I would probably watch it, only for Wogan's commentary.

I will be watching - but only for the comedy value of the sound of Terry getting pissed on Bailey's!

Just remember the one a couple of years ago when the hosts came on - 'Oh god here comes Dr Death and the Tooth Fairy again!' :lol:
