Oh no.......here comes Scotlands Eurovision Entry.......by IP2





As I said in my last blog Scotland has some hard decisions to make and having our own Eurovision entry is one of them. The European Broadcasting Union (EBU), said there was nothing to prevent Scotland from entering on its own merit. It means that broadcasters BBC, ITV, STV and Border Television, which are all members of the EBU, could submit an entry. This little project has been dreamt up by Alyn Smith, SNP MEP. Nice to see he has been busy over there, he is clearly an ideas man. I never said very good ideas but there you go.

This camp cabaret has all the ingredients to remind you why Europe can be so naff, so its worth keeping.
But who would represent us, should we dust down Lulu again? I know a singer from my local and she does a great turn, I could ask her. Or what about our own Indygal, from Dennistoun just like Lulu. I've heard her singing and she has a stoatin voice, when its not getting worn out by all the chatting. Or has Alyn Smith got a secret and plans to represent us himself? if so he would be the first MEP to be of some use. Ive often thought they would make good draught excluders but there probably no good at that either. Anyway I digress...



 If we cant have Terry Wogan compering it then I don't think it's worth doing. I think I may have found a standby, pictured above, if he needs to be in two places at once. However I think Scotland could be cool, fight to be represented in the contest and then say no thanks, it's total mince. We could then embalm Lulu and shove her back in the cupboard till Eurovision 2050. Now that really would be worth considering.
