TOTP2 Goes Eurovision - BBC2 11pm 16/05

[Rita]

No offence Lolly. I know the barbers is closed.

 

[ButterTart]

Sandy Shaw was decked out like a drag version of Freddy Krueger.

 

[ButterTart]

God we were FUCKING AWFUL in the 85-91 era.

I really liked this.

 

[dmlaw]

THIS came second. We really could enter any old shit before we let those forrins use our language.

 

[VoR]

I mean, can you blame us for getting complacent when THIS almost won?

 

[Jacques]

Imaani is our best ever entry. There. I said it. No taking it back.

Scooch. Daz Sampson. Josh Dubovie. Electro Velvet. Jemini. They are all dumbfounded at such accusations!

 

[Rita]

Pile of SHITE.

 

[Tisch]

Now I HAVEN'T re-watched 1999 () but how did these get one of our worst results up until that point? It's better than Imaani!

 

[Rita]

Now we are TALKING.

 

[Tisch]

Ooh Sandi Shaw! Dishwasher break!

 

[ButterTart]

People with no hair on top and long hair at the back REALLY offend me.

He is quite monstrous. You'd call the police if you saw him near a primary school.

 

[lolly]

don't worry, the Fizz are miming this

 

[dmlaw]

Aston very much has a look of someone who has been taken from behind as a result of indecision more often than she'd care to remember.

 

[Ellie]

They really do sound better on record. Their live harmonies really were something else.

 

[dmlaw]

don't worry, the Fizz are miming this

I was just thinking that it seemed better than the Eurovision performance whilst glaring suspiciously at the label on the wine bottle.

 

[VoR]

Aww, lovely Mary Hopkin.

I'm pretty sure she HATES this song, inevitably. But don't they all from this era?

 

[Lucille]

Scooch. Daz Sampson. Josh Dubovie. Electro Velvet. Jemini. They are all dumbfounded at such accusations!

Javine > Bucks Fizz.

 

[lolly]

I much prefer Mary Hopkin to Dana

Both twee as fuck, of course

 

[ButterTart]

Now this one's a fucking banger. Always reminds me of David Morrissey singing it in Blackpool.

 

[Madíson]

She was married to Tony Visconti?!

 

[VoR]

Is this Mary Hopkin one another that's stealthily about anal?

 

[ButterTart]

Those Were The Days was released before this?

 

[VoR]

I don't hate Love Games, but the presentation feels Scooch levels of patronising.

 

[lolly]

Is this Mary Hopkin one another that's stealthily about anal?

Her tweets are all about lesbianism

 

[VoR]

Those Were The Days was released before this?

Yep. Knock Knock came at the tail end of her run of hits.

 

[ButterTart]

BOO Belle! BOO Devotions!

 

[Rita]

I have no recollection of this? Clearly unknown back in Ireland.

 

[ButterTart]

Yep. Knock Knock came at the tail end of her run of hits.

I thought she was a newcomer when she did it!

 

[lolly]

Love Games stopped my run of buying UK act singles. I don’t think I did again until Gina G.

 

[VoR]

"Bit of Gender stuff going on here"

Nobody at the BBC even bothered to re-watch this before they put it back on the schedules, did they?

 

[dmlaw]

A 'bit of gender stuff'. 2007 really was the dark ages, wasn't it.

 

[Rita]

Love Games stopped my run of buying UK act singles. I don’t think I did again until Gina G.

No wonder. It is ROTTEN.

 

[Dark Carnival]

Dana, the hair is thirsty!

 

[Lucille]

Dana’s body in this perf

 

[VoR]

What's with Dana Int's WIG in this perf?

 

[ButterTart]

A 'bit of gender stuff'. 2007 really was the dark ages, wasn't it.

Yeah, that shocked me. Mind, Nadia won Big Brother three years earlier and was given the soubriquet 'Portugeezer', so I suppose everything was just shit back then.

 

[ButterTart]

What's with Dana Int's WIG in this perf?

She scalped Eleni Foureira for good luck.

 

[Rita]

I take it all back. This may be the WORST thing I have ever came across.

What the actual FUCK??

 

[dmlaw]

Another utterly inexplicable second place finisher.

 

[Lucille]

Dana, the hair is thirsty!

I was gonna argue but where’s the lie!!!
