Some indie music, radio, archive TV, F1. Roobarbarian. Personal account. My views.
First time the British and Italian anthems have been heard in that order since... Eddie Irvine in 1999, is that right?

Also: a red letter day for men in their 40s. Seventh oldest ever grand prix winner.

Very pleased to see Lewis win for Ferrari. He made a point of doing the hard thing, and has got a reward for it. Fairytale stuff.

oh blimey, was the REM 1990 or 91? I won't get any of the later ones. I think 1s... do I? But blimey, judging by the records either side of song 2, the turn of the century was a wretched time for pop wasn't it?

Ridiculous from Russell there, way over the top. Should be yet another penalty for that.

Just me, or is there something a bit off about Lewis having a scooter while the woman he employs has to run behind him?

This is a good point: if they don't re-start, will there be count-back to an earlier lap?

Blimey. Questions for the grand prix organisers this weekend - pit lane speed sensors, and track surface. Still... ten laps left is enough to give a race if there's a restart. Even bigger questions to answer if there isn't.

Still can't quite believe this has been created. Looking forward to re-watching Paul McGann's second best TV episode of Doctor Who tonight.

Rilo Kiley, a mere 18 years after I last saw them. More than did themselves justice.

McLaren still need to address their strategy weaknesses, don't they? Why have they not recognised that?

Good to see that even in a big event like
#eurovision
there's still room for a slightly messy, unprepared performance at the end. Greatly helped by well drilled performers who know what they're doing.

dodges the bullet for another year. Thank goodness for the plastic surgery body horror freaks. They need to sort it out and kick Israel out before next year..

Or maybe not? Some big scores going to lower-down countries. Could be some countries that did well with the juries that might get low audience scores. Exciting.

This is the pity end of the table, isn't it? Interesting though: the jury votes were widely spread, but the popular vote looks like being more concentrated...

Interesting to reflect on my tweet from 2022! Still basically agree, especially about PWB. But Graham did well in 2023 tbf.

Normally at this point in the evening I feel the UK is pretty deserving of where it's sitting, but honestly tonight I think we're being really hard done by. All the decent songs are in the lower half, frankly.

Billy Joel came across very well there, didn't he? Nice to see him officially on Eurovision after the UK's entry last year so blatantly ripped him off.

Seem to have kidded myself into thinking the UK's entry is called Mam, Me Laptop's Buggered. At least we've found something a bit distinctive for the first time in about... 70 years.

Cosmetic surgery-themed body horror... Did they do this on purpose?? Harrowing. Not helped by the 70s wood panelling. Ye gods.
