Eurovision Midweek Rewatch: Millstreet, 1993 (2000 BST 06.05.20)

[Madison]

Malta get their comeuppance in 1998 when they are in exactly the same situation and the last jury, Croatia, give Chiara NOTHING AT ALL

*FYROM

 

[COB]

We'll see you all VERY SOON!

How smug

 

[Penelope]

So weird that they don't interview the winner.

They were being told to leave the farm and never come back at the time to be fair.

 

[win_the_game]

Oh but what about CLAUDETTE PACE

Actually I'm right in the mood for some SIZZLING MALTESE CALYPSO tonight.

 

[Soldi]

“Our thanks to the PERSON of Millstreet”

 

[Zu]

Oh but what about CLAUDETTE PACE and HER THAT DID CARAVAGGIO!

And HER THAT DID WODKA! And HER that did WERTIGO!!

Oh apart from them OBVIOUSLY

And international chart sensations BELLA AND VORG

 

[Dark Carnival]

SHIT WINNER BYE

 

[Suomi]

Linda Martin would go on to question Nadine Coyle about her passport

 

[Iguana]

Is this one of your blandest winners ever?

 

[Madison]

Well done Cote d'ivoire

 

[Dark Carnival]

Linda Martin would go on to question Nadine Coyle about her passport

?

 

[AGinAg (37)]

At this point they had to STACK THE CHAIRS and SWEEP UP.

Out by 1am. NOT A MINUTE LATER!

They'll need that £75 deposit back.

 

[Penelope]

Is this one of your blandest winners ever?

Portugal later went on to win the Eurovision Song Contest.

 

[dmlaw]

Is this one of your blandest winners ever?

It's almost certainly the best of Ireland's four winners in five years. The other three were really bad.

Audience all being told to STACK THEIR OWN CHAIRS please, IT'LL HELP FINISH UP IN TIME

 

[ButterTart]

Niamh is quite fit in a sort of pushy PTA member way.

 

[Penelope]

at them SCROUNGING OFF THE NATIONAL LOTTERY TO HOST THIS

 

[dmlaw]

Audience heading straight to the Pig & Barrel for the Saturday night lock-in.

 

[Dark Carnival]

Good God Europe, don't let this ever happen to Eurovision again

 

[Penelope]

CHECK THE BACKING SINGERS SEIZING THE MOMENT!

 

[Suomi]

?

enjoy your history lesson

 

[ZenGiraffe]

It's almost certainly the best of Ireland's four winners in five years. The other three were really bad.

The Voice was fucking fantastic I'll have you know

 

[AGinAg (37)]

The cafe hatch will close 5 minutes before the end of show.

 

[VoR]

I'd pitch In Your Eyes as easily the best of the 90s Irish winners.

It's the only one that sounds at least VAGUELY contemporary to the year that it won. Dina Carroll probably could have gotten to #16 with it.

 

[Suomi]

*FYROM

ah yes, and it was Croatia who got their 12

 

[Penelope]

The cafe hatch will close 5 minutes before the end of show.

And we're sorry to say WE'RE OUT OF SAUSAGES so PLEASE no more orders for the HOT SAUSAGE FESTIVAL

 

[ButterTart]

It's almost certainly the best of Ireland's four winners in five years. The other three were really bad.

Depressingly true, although it's like being asked to choose which of your prolapses you enjoyed most.

 

[VoR]

As boring as it would be from a holiday perspective, I do hope I'm in the audience for a home-crowd win one day.

 

[dmlaw]

The Voice was fucking fantastic I'll have you know

We watched that contest and there was general agreement that Ginag (39) was robbed.

 

[Penelope]

As boring as it would be from a holiday perspective, I do hope I'm in the audience for a home-crowd win one day.

Was 2013 not ENOUGH for you?!

 

[Lucille]

When was Ireland’s last top 10 placing?

 

[lolly]

Niamh is quite fit in a sort of pushy PTA member way.

And to think we mock Lucille and the state he's got himself in.

 

[Penelope]

When was Ireland’s last top 10 placing?

Jedward - Lipstick

 

[lolly]

When are we off next, 11.15 or 11.30pm?

 

[VoR]

Was 2013 not ENOUGH for you?!

I forgot about that! My very first Eurovision too.

It was quite fun, so many pissed-up Danes.

 

[Madison]

I liked the advertising van that the Danish set up outside the venue during the show with an arrow pointing to Copenhagen.

 

[Iguana]

Portugal later went on to win the Eurovision Song Contest.

Haha, true!!

 

[Iguana]

It's almost certainly the best of Ireland's four winners in five years. The other three were really bad.

No way, I love The Voice!

 

[AGinAg (37)]

I sadly can't find a clip of Nicholas Witchell calling it a cow shed.

 

[COB]

What's next, and when? I'm hyped up
