Possible under-50 on the Death List thread, then? Potentially by gladioli waving former fans who are incensed by what they see at his sell-out...

Indeed! I have to say that the thought of Moz doing Eurovision made me laugh uproariously, but in a strange way I think it could work; he has written some very good pop songs which tend to get overlooked by non-Morrissey fans - and let's face it, there's no middle ground, you're either a Morrissey fan or you're not.

Oh, and in case anyone hasn't seen the Eurovision-inspired video for Morrissey's "You Have Killed Me"... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l7hX5cCZsCw

I don't think his real fans would be that surprised, to be honest. He did work with Sandie Shaw, after all...

Oh well another 'Nul point' in the offing then

Lordii made the world a better place.

It's good to see the Stephen's hair transplants are holding up well after all these years

I still reckon we'd win hands down if Ozzy Osbourne was our representitive

I reckon we could possibly persuade the Scissor Sisters to do it for the UK

I think Morrissey will flop - it stopped being a song contest years ago and is now the Eurovision "Vote for your neighbouring countries and countries that haven't bombed Iraq" contest. Would be interesting though - wonder if he'd try to pen something a little jolly or would go for his usual tale of woe?

Potenatial Morrisey Song

Save all your lifestock for me.

Making you sulk up.

Love saddened a light.

This point-less man

That host isn't funny anymore

I started something I now regret

Don't Panic (couldn't resist it!)

Oh come on, stop this idle speculation. Morrisey with either not take part, or lose the 'public vote', some stupid, idiotic, bland pop will win as always. (Blame the 'Great British' public, not me )

I mean, Hannah and Marti???? WTF??

"I mean, Hannah and Marti?..."

Happily, I had to google to find out "WTF?" you were on about.

Aww. It's one of the few reasons to watch this 'Celebrity' strictly dance, sing, academy malarky nonsense.

"Celebrity" eh? Shame their isn't an Ofcom equivalent of the trading standards act covering the use of that word in programming. I think it would lead to less confusion... if only on the part of the 'guests'. I heard someone on one these shows claim to be 25th most influential person in the world.

Hannah and Marti? Would that be Hannah Waterman and Marti Pellow? I always say to ewif that these celebrity shows are merely popularity contests that are won by the most popular soap opera character or the biggest hearthrob male. Right again. I'm sure I could win some money if the bookies offered odds on celebrity reality shows.

Apparently, Jaana Pelkonen and Mikko Leppilampi will be the presenters of the 52nd annual Eurovision Song Contest in Finland.
They look par for the course

Eurovision presenters come and go but Wogan will be there forever!

Wogan is the only reason I watch
