It’s a bit early but this popped up on X so I thought it was as good a time as any to get the discussion going. What do you think about this?

Rina so fancied she's listed twice

No to Sophie. I know she's very likeable and :disco: . But in her last attempt at a singing contest, she got booted out in week 1 in favour of Sue Perkins.

Pixie Lott is best left as an obscure historical figure.

Yungblud would work well on the Eurovision stage, but he absolutely doesn't need this at his career stage.

Rebecca, I'm not sure on. She's got an ace voice, but it's not of the dramatic I'm-dying belter style that Eurovision prefers.
 
Europe must be punished for it's cruel treatment of r Olly and Mae.

We will send our entrant to Switzerland on a sealed plane. She will fly Jet2.

I mean...it wouldn't exactly be EXCITING, but I imagine she could give us a top 10 with the juries(10 points from the public) Lucie Jones style result, which wouldn't be unwelcome at this point.

God that sounds depressing
 
Why is one of Cindy Beale's COUNTLESS CHILDREN off EastEnders listed as a possibility? :D

I agree. She also isn't signed to a major label anymore, which doesn't exactly help.
 
Let BBC 1 Xtra, BBC Asian Network, BBC Radio nan Gàidheal or BBC Cymru pick. Whomever they want.
 
I find Rebecca Ferguson's live vocal a bit trying so wouldn't be terribly thrilled with her as the UK entry.
 
I actually don’t think it would be a bad move if we had the right song.
 
This is all just marketing spin; the only source for any of this information is various articles quoting "Lee Astley, spokesperson for betideas.com", who don't have any Eurovision odds on their site and have clearly just spammed out a press release to get some coverage adjacent to a current event.

Well of course, but that hasn’t stopped us from doing that level of speculating over 50 page threads in the past either…
 
They already tried to represent Norway in 2010 and came 2nd in Melodi Grand Prix.



Of course Ben has already been to Eurovision as one of Subwoolfer.

I wouldn’t be against it though they’d probably have the hasbeens label attached to them.
 
Four out of five wins came under a Labour government.
 
I don’t care who it is. It’s all about the song and whether they can perform it.
 
A1 are barely even has-beens at this point. Is there anyone who didn't have a subscription to Attitude Magazine in the aughts that remembers they exist?

The level of cheddar offered by Mark during his verse is just too much.

That would have been a fine entry in 2010 though.
 
I mean, Baby Lasagna was complete nobody before Eurovision. We sent arguably the most famous person we’ve sent in years and we still did shit. We need to stop focusing on whether someone is known or not.
 
I’m coming around to that obviously nonsense Jessie J rumour from a couple of years ago tbh.

She must have some more disco stuff stored away after I Want Love did nothing.

We’ve learned from Sam Ryder that a powerhouse vocal can work wonders, and we’ve since learned from Slimane that the powerhouse vocal doesn’t even need to be particularly pleasant to listen to. She’d be perfect.

In a ranking of famous things called A1, they don't even finish first.
 
It occurred to me this week that as long as Israel are in it, the likes of Jade are probably never touching this with a bargepole :(
 
Jessie J would of course be a groan-inducing choice for many but I can see her doing very well.
 
I Want Love (the greatest song of 2021) would have come 15th and been a luxury for every single second

WOOO-OOO-OOOH!
 
She's so terrible though. Surely Europe would see that.

Didn't she win a Chinese singing show?

I do feel a bit sorry for r Olly who was probably the exact worst possible person to be fronting it this year. A popstar who'd protest the opening of an envelope thrown out to be eaten by his own.

Just send Jane McDonald until this has all blown over.
 
I'm really hoping this year's boycott was largely a one-off but I suspect it probably isn't.
