If only...John Shuttleworth's lyrics wouldn't be one bit out of place on Eurovision - "You're like Manchester, you've got Strangeways..." And at least he's performed in 'Iceland' on his 500 Bus Stops tour, so he's already very Europe-friendly.

Personally, I thought the most Orcish entry was the British one, which was so cringeworthy I couldn't bring myself to watch; at least 80's hair metal has the necessary Eurovision kitsch factor, so I was quite pleased an act like that won it.
