ITV's coverage clearly outstripped Sky and BBC. The only one thing that went at all wrong with ITV's coverage which was awesome with Nick, Bill, Trevor, Other Nick, Chris and Angus was Chris Rogers was sitting at the desk with Angus Walker on the big screen and he said ''Well live now to our reporter, Emma Kennedy, Emma, what do... Oh, Angus Walker, sorry''


But little things like that MAKE a news channel seem more LIVE and edgy and add to the whole effect.

The general public likes it when things go wrong - we are a nation whom have grown up watching It'll be alright on the night etc!

Well there's things I'd say here, but for risk of being kicked, I will not.

Anyway - Dr. Spin resigns? Thank fcuk. All we need now is Blair to f c u k off and the world will be a better place. That man cost us the Eurovision this year.

To$$er.

Not at all.

For the record, I show little interest in mocks. Go back to being Addicted to Love!

Oh how incredibly boring of you. I'm no fan of Blair to be honest, but he's a decent bloke and not this corrupt tyrant you're making him out to be. If you want to talk politics, then please learn a bit of background information instead of spouting off a load of biassed, inaccurate bullsh;t. Thank you please.

Terry Wogan agrees with me. Coming from someone who has no idea how to present breakfast radio despite doing a breakfast show, that's saying something.

Even my mother, a die-hard Wogan fan, converted to Fosseway's Nick Gurney Breakfast Show about 3 years ago.

No, sadly he wasn't joking. He does blame Tony Blair for the Eurovision Song Contest, James Martin doesn't do humour. I expect these comments were made after a night on the town, 2 pints of shandy and a dandelion and burdock. Rolling Eyes

Terry Wogan is not that stupid and has been on Radio 2 for years. You haven't.

And you, at 18, know everything and then some about radio presenting do you? Wogan is a professional, he's been on TV and radio for more years than you've been alive.

I do hope your mother enjoys her new found entertainment.
Likewise, I do wish you'd stop coming out with such silly comments.

Yes, how did it get from Alastair Campbell, to Eurovision, to Terry Wogan, to Fosseway Radio ?
