    It's time they had a panel that put their votes in not the public of the countries that participated .

    I wouldn't have said it was fixed as much as it is political! Even political though where no one gives us 12 points, with enough 8 or 10 points we could still win and did with Catarina and the waves. We just need a big strong but good catchy song.

    It always makes me laugh when Turkey give Greece 12 points and Greece give Turkey 12 points.

    I'm sure if one of them dropped to 10 points it would start a war.

    It was laughable and Wogan's commentary was very funny. Strange that they suddenly want to take it seriously.

    That never happens they hate each other! Cyprus give Greece 12 and vice verser Azerbaijan give Turkey 12 and vice verser. The Scandinavian countries all stick together too .

    How is this news? I don't bother watching it, as the music is naff and the perpetual, 'twelve points for our friends in Denmark/Norway/Sweden) is embarrassing. As is the usual UK entry. We'd be more amusing if we entered with Furbies!
