United Kingdom 2025 entry (1 Viewer)

Being slappable has certainly not been a barrier to winning Eurovision in the past.

It's a shame Croatia couldn't do it but I'm fine with Switzerland's victory. Honestly, as a delegation they'd earned it after the turnaround they achieved from 2019 onwards. It was nice to have our first non-binary winner and whatever the public votes say, it was definitely a standout live performance.

Book of stats, but from my discussions with casuals after the show, nobody mentioned or even seemed to have noticed that he lost the televote. That really doesn't seem to register with most viewers. (And Rim Tim Tagi Dim probably wouldn't have had much more of a chart life, realistically).
 
That Ingrosso interval still haunts my dreams.
 
Rebecca (WITH A GOOD SONG for the folks in the back) would be just fine - we don't need to think too much out of the box, let's aim for competence.

Eurovision is hard to win, it is not hard however to avoid humiliation.
 
Rebecca Ferguson would be fantastic. Agreed that this is the year we really need to just get a safety-first creditable top 10 under our belts to prove Sam wasn't a total blip and prevent a backwards slip from how much more care and time the UK delegation have started to put in post-Embers.
 
This is potentially the wrong call but Rebecca with something classy but distinctly Bond-themey could work quite well. Something about an internationally recognisable British sound.
 
Speaking of - I doubt we'd be fans, but one year they should really just dig out a band with proven live chops to send a big indie pop song (which, let's be honest, is not something Joker Out delivered)
 
I have a visceral 'Get a job! Stay away from her!' reaction to the Jessie Ware suggestion, even though she'd obviously be great at it.
 
It's been ages since we entered a novelty song. I think one could work this time around. Perhaps on the quirks of British life and playing up British stereotypes.

I thought you were working at a vegan cafe, RATHER THAN THE BBC.

Thanks to the wonders of AI I have created the worst piece of music known to man:

She's really got nothing to lose by doing it*. It's not like she's a Radio One demographic darling any more, and Radio Two LOVES a Eurovision queen. I reckon the fanbase she has would be largely supportive of it.

*other than navigating the Israel minefield that any contestant would be subject to.
 
Quite a few vicious queens have been throwing around (quite out of order, in my view) catty tweets about her being a Zionist, off the back of her dad being John Ware of the Panorama Labour anti-semitism documentary fame.
