I'm not warming to Molly, I'll be honest!

No, she seemed a little arsey when receiving the cake. Doesn't appear to be very friendly, although CKhalvashi seems to like her.

They've just given one of the Malta chaps (one of the ones with British parents, as a guess) a full English breakfast as he's been missing them while out there. And now they're talking to our Molly about cakes - have given her a curly wurly cake :beer:

Someone has just tweeted that they would love to see the Russian Grannies doing the Polish butter churning song. Now that's an image I'm going to struggle to get out of my head before the nightmares start tonight!! :rotfl:

That was bizarre - the French had some menus.

They've given Molly a cake and Graham Norton some attention - very nice to the UK tonight.

:rotfl: @ Russian Grannies doing the Polish song

At this point, last years winner is on, reminding me we should be in Germany :D:(

I think the results are going to be tomorrow.

Do you remember when every country used to give all the scores - and it would take 1.5 hours of just staring at the woman asking for the scores and the scores changing on the board?

I really like her. I met her twice this week

Maybe it's just the surprise of it and the cameras etc!

Oh yes, only they started a lot earlier - it take nearly as long the new way as they have countries not even in the final voting now...40 odd compared to the 24/25 in the past.

My prediction of 34 is looking a bit high at the moment!

If the bookies were anything like accurate on our likely chances, we really should have picked up some points after 4 countries - none yet at all. We've had our hopes raised in the past and come to nothing.

Edit: phew, 12 points in the next two rounds. And Norway voted for Sweden!!

I've never really been into it. I didn't have my own telly until I was 30. My parents watched a few in the 60s/70s, but it's not really their thing and they'd have not had the attention span for it either.

I remember when Mary Hopkin was singing in 1970, coming 2nd to Dana's "All Kinds of Everything".

If someone shoved a large curly wurly cake into my face unexpectedly, I'd be a bit taken aback :rotfl:

CKhalvashi

Wow. Just wow.

This was nothing like I expected.
