The road to Eurovision 2009....


Well, the British people has spoken tonight - and Londoner Jade Ewen has been chosen to sing Andrew Lloyd Webber's Eurovision Song Contest entry for the UK in Moscow.
21-year-old Jade beat the other finalists The Twins and Welshman Mark Evans, to win the BBC talent show "Your Country Needs You" and will sing for the UK in the final on 16 May.
Singer Jade wins Eurovision berth

Sorry Jade, but it doesn't matter how good the song is. We already know how the voting will go - the Scandinavian countries will give each other full marks, the former Russian republics will give each other full marks...and so on, ad nauseum. I wish her the best of British luck, but I don't hold out much hope for our chances.

Besides, the contest won't be the same without Sir Terry Wogan's commentary.....
