NEW Doctor Who companion announced...
I know it's called Doctor Who, but having virtual unknowns for both the Doctor and his companion is taking it just a bit too far.

Black man attacked by BNP thugs
No - stereotyping.

Black man attacked by BNP thugs
What the BNP don't tell you is that they don't like black people - regardless of nationality. Why else would have backed Denmark in the 2002 World Cup game between England and the bacon makers?

Youtube to ban all UK music videos
Also affected by the "not-for-profit" PRS: http://www.oldhamathletic.co.uk/page/NewsU...1568133,00.html Long story short - the PRS increased the prices for run-out and goal celebration music. By a whopping SIX HUNDRED PERCENT. Which might explain why there have been plenty of teams that now don't have either of those. (However, the music before the game and during half-time are unaffected.)

Hit 40 UK chart to be scrapped
Well, they obviously don't know what they're talking about. The Official Top 40 goes Sunday -> Saturday.

Hit 40 UK chart to be scrapped
Forgive me if I'm mistaken, but hasn't that been happening since 1952?

The 1100th UK Number 1 single.
I take it you mean the winning song - Gina G made No1 with our entry in 1996.

Official 2009 DVD
And if you look at the picture of the sleeve, you can see that it says "3 DVD". Looks like someone at HMV f***ed up.

Who knows - it might have the compilation stats as well (they were missing from the GWRBHS&A books).

Worst number 1 so far of this year?
The worst? Hard to tell between these three: -> Flo-Rida -> Tinchy Stryder -> Black Eyed Peas

Why did Norway vote last?
It's not the first time he did something like that. In 2003, he said that the piece of paper with the votes would decide who won it that year. And then he said, "And here I go. Bye" and walked off screen. And in 2007, he took the p!ss out of his own country's performance by waving a torch around.

Highest score ever in Eurovision
Yes, there was. But Alexander wiped the floor with all of them. Also - If the countries that didn't award him either 10 or 12 gave him nothing, his winning margin would have been 68 (rather than something ridiculous like 168).

Eurovision Song Contest 2009 [Semi 2]
I've got to say that I liked the Albanian act. Simply 'cos I've always wondered what would happened if Peter Parker brought his outfit from an S&M shop.

Do you think Norway has this in the bag?
The definition of "ironic", from the OED: 1 - using or characterized by irony* 2 - happening in the opposite way to what is expected * - By the way, this is how it defines "irony": 1 - the expression of meaning through the use of language which normally signifies the opposite, typically for humorous effect 2 - a state of affairs that appears perversely contrary to what one expects Bearing all that in mind, how would it have been ironic?

Who can find the most cringe-worthy Eurovision entry?
I was ashamed of it, and I'm only Irish on my mother's side. (Not as ashamed as my friend Alex, though - and she's from Waterford.)

Please don't tell me this is what I think it is (i.e. a cover of ).

Who can find the most cringe-worthy Eurovision entry?
No, I wasn't saying that LSAL should be in this thread (seeing as it's in my all-time Top 10), I'm just saying that it's presence meant that people forgot about Croatia - which preceeded it - when it came to vote. Hence it getting just 24 points. And three more cringe-worthy entries, all from 1997: LzRUZnj-TLg _vlM4uZGiws 7zpVaiFGInU The amazing thing is that only one of these finished with nil points.

The name of Denmark's song is very interesting....
You didn't need to put it in Spoiler tags - we already know what the song's called.

Do you think Norway has this in the bag?
You mean like how the people saying Cyprus will qualify haven't taken into account that she's not amazing live.
