[Beverley]

Never forget that this guy (allegedly) sucked off Ronan Keating.

WHAT

 

[ButterTart]

Actual footage of me during the reveal

Is that Iggy sat next to you?

 

[Soldi]

Holy shit that IS Una

Did the Saturdays ever perform in a bigger venue?

 

[Soldi]

CAROL

 

[Lucille]

Did they have that song left over from their early 90s ‘heyday’?

[COB]

I forgot we're getting a spot of Hagtits

 

[Beverley]

NEVER GONNA RUN AWAY

 

[D5K]

I was obsessed with this at the time

 

[ButterTart]

Poor Carola. Entered Eurovision all these times and never won. Except once.

 

[Tisch]

Is that Iggy sat next to you?

Yep that's his lovely lockdown hair!

 

[Madison]

Is she sporting a religious tattoo?

 

[Lucille]

Sorry but this outfit, what a MESS!

 

[VoR]

Those CRAZED, POWER HUNGRY EYES in the opening shot get me every time.

 

[dmlaw]

You might not be going to run away, Carol, but I wouldn't want to speak for anyone else.

 

[ButterTart]

NEVER GONNA RUN AWAY

She fucking legs it from those high notes later.

 

[VoR]

Jesus may have died for her sins, but those PANTS were unforgivable.

 

[D5K]

Those flags paved the way for Statements.

 

[Lucille]

What Abba song does this remind me of??

 

[Soldi]

Is that Iggy sat next to you?

This reminds me we haven’t done the DRINK SELFIES in AGES

 

[dmlaw]

Poor Carola. Entered Eurovision all these times and never won. Except once.

In 1991. That barely counts because every contest in a year ending in 1 is terrible.

 

[Tisch]

What are those trousers

 

[ButterTart]

Sorry but this outfit, what a MESS!

She didn't want to give the gays anything to get excited about.

 

[COB]

What Abba song does this remind me of??

All of the uptempo ones?

[ButterTart]

GOOD GIRL! You dodge those top notes like they're fucking active grenades, I'm sure nobody will notice.

 

[VoR]

TWO HEARTS UNITE
SENSATIABLE

 

[Tisch]

This reminds me we haven’t done the DRINK SELFIES in AGES

I can't I look haggard right now.

 

[D5K]

I just got winner vibes from that

 

[D5K]

Back when Sweden was calculate but not soulless.

 

[VoR]

GOOD GIRL! You dodge those top notes like they're fucking active grenades, I'm sure nobody will notice.

Her throat was absolutely fucked by this point in fairness.

 

[Beverley]

O
MY
GAG

 

[Soldi]

I can't I look haggard right now.

Poor Iguana

 

[Beverley]

IT'S SIBEL!!!!!

 

[Lucille]

All of the uptempo ones?

IN A BLENDER.

I think it was Winner Takes it All I was hearing.

 

[ButterTart]

In 1991. That barely counts because every contest in a year ending in 1 is terrible.

Oh Christ, next year's contest in post-apocalyptic Rotterdam is going to be a right shithouse isn't it?

 

[Beverley]

This is such a ridiculous bop

 

[Tisch]

Poor Iguana

It's okay I'm skinny as a needle

 

[Tisch]

Did carol get BOOED?

 

[VoR]

I once found a MAXI SINGLE of this song in a charity shop in ILKLEY of all places.
