Eurovision season rolls round and with it endless bad jokes and irony. We've watched it for the last four or five years - TK loves it, not in a post-ironic or even sarcastic way. He just finds the whole business hilarious fun. This year we got the usual crop of leggy blondes, men in leather pants, bizarre Euro-lyrics and generous helpings of tandoori skin. Here were some of your favourites - none of them won, of course:
Azerbaijan: gothic extravaganza with men in drag and women in underwear. What's not to love?
Switzerland: a button-cute Italian and an inanely catchy ballad. Just too Eurovision and sadly never destined for success.
Ukraine: a sexpot in a tasselled minidress belting out a very bad, high octane pop song. Fabulous legs, a burnished fake tan and some heaving cleavage.
Estonia: three fat and cheerful middleaged men, one of them an Estonian MP. I didn't see them but apparently they rocked.
Latvia: they came as pirates!!!

Anna feels that Switzerland were robbed. That smile alone should have made him the winner. I thought the slappers (literally and in the skanky sense) of the Czech Republic were outstanding.
Yeah, TK and Lord Dawson were highly impressed with the shady ladies of Eastern Eurovision. And tell Anna I downloaded Switzerland's song!! (But I can't get the real, non-Euro version from his latest album of cheesy goodness).
