  • From hopeful anticipation to the disappointment of not winning. The UK rank really low in 2023 Eurovision Song Contest

    Next year we should send The Fishermen’s Friends singing a sea shanty in Cornish, or give up completely. I can’t see anyone wanting to represent the U.K. next year and the British public don’t support their own act or take it seriously so why should Europe?

      It's sad to say, but you are right.

    Allegedly, the BBC has just signed a new K-Pop-act to represent the UK next year. It consists of 6 Welsh Corgis, each with it's own, strong, personality (1 is non-binair!). They are now being trained and groomed for their ESC-participance. It's remarkable how they all honk, bark and growl in sync, and on pitch, after just days of training!
    Olly gave us his all, sadly it kind of backfired. But the BBC will take no more risks! Next year it will al be pretty straight forward Going to the Dogs!

      You're hilarious! The UK public should stand by their representatives more.

      @@Currentea It's the same, every year, in every country. People have such (crazy!) high expectations from their entries. And if a candidate, that seemed near perfect on paper, should somehow fail to deliver to make it to the Top 5, folks tend to get totally confused. There is no difference with Football, really. Who is to blame? The trainer (BBC), the striker (Olly), The referee (EBU)?
      This was an interesting case. Kudos to Olly's army of Ollygans though, they really stood up for him! Let's all hope that 'The Woofs' do better next year!

      It makes you question the quality of the judges.

      The staging was amazing and very memorable but too raunchy for family viewing or audiences from more conservative countries. Plus nobody could understand how it related to the song so I guess in which case it was a car crash, poor Olly, he was really enthusiastic but made a mistake there.
