Tonight, six acts will be doing some singing, the prize is to sing Pete Waterman’s song at this year’s Eurovision Song Contest in Norway.

I’d like to say there’s ‘Norway’ I’m going to miss this (the joke here is that ‘Norway’ sounds a bit like ‘no way’. Do you see?) but unfortunately I just might. But don’t let that stop you: the punters have a natter about it, and you can do that here if you want.

My money’s on Uni 5, for no reason other than it sounds like a local bus route. Busses are relatively environmentally friendly = green vote.

There is no way that this will end well.

Although saying that, it can’t be much worse than Game Face on Bravo I saw a while ago which I think might have been the worst video gaming show I’ve ever seen. Maybe it has improved in the interim, I’m not sure I dare check. The horror. THE HORROR.

So I know the result already. But you can talk about it if you like.

Meanwhile, edit -spotters may note that the The Whole 19 Yards description has been edited slightly to avoid giving away exact details on the blindfold task in case they use it again, but a description of the end game has been added to compensate. So there you are.

Connecting Walls 11 through 15 are now online, apparently.

Well, Sport Relief Does We Are the Champions is a bit limp. For whatever reason they’ve decided to do it in a bit of a vaccum (one of the facilities at Ponds Forge), without loads of people cheering the teams on the show does rather lose its sense of occasion and fun. Games retain bonus scoring elements of the original (good) but if I’m being honest, the various obstacle courses aren’t convoluted enough (bad). Paddy MacGuinness spends his time making references that will go over the kids’ heads that aren’t all that funny for adults either, celebrity sports coaches don’t really add very much (other than an ability to look really uncomfortable reading off cue cards), limpness of re-recorded iconic theme sums up limpness of remake, really. It will be here all week.

Pointless changes seem amusingly pointless, although doubtless we’ll eventually get over them. I don’t get why a show whose entire premise was predicated on coming up with obscure answers off your own back has now mainly changed to trying to predict which of several answers the public is least likely to come up with, not so much pointless knowledge as educated guesswork. The trivia element is why the show was liked! In fact I don’t think I like any changes the show has made, the flow and pacing of the show seems very off and I hate the new large square display screen.

In summary: disappointing.
