Before Eurovision made me lose the will to live...

there was a classic Graham Norton line.

"The end of this features two girls kissing. If that offends you...grow up."

One of the performances in the "filling in time when people are voting" was a daft bit of panto-like stuff all about Sweden (the hosts.) Apparently the Swedes are just like us - love to queue, restrained, think you're a nutter if you smile at them on public transport etc. They're just better at coping with snow. Anyway, my point... yes, I have one! The song included same sex weddings and two guys kissing, to illustrate their marriage equality laws. That was probably the most fun part of the night actually, the whole Sweden Smorgasbord they called it. :D That and Greece's and Romania's songs (Greece had men in skirts singing about free alcohol, in a somewhat Madness-esque performer. Romania had a countertenor who looked kind of like a vampire.)

Young Ros kept singing the alcohol one. I missed the countertenor. Chizz.

David Beckham for 2014 entry, I say.
