ah, the nationalism...
I've just gotten a hold of the 2003 contest on DVD with Terry Wogan's commentary. While I love him more than life itself, I was amused by how he dealt with the nul-point UK entry of the year. I mean, I wasn't expecting him to come out and bash them of course, but during the postcard after Jemini performed he exclaimed, "I think we can agree they've done us proud".
Really, Terry?
He did mention that alcohol was being served in the hall that evening though, so that might explain it.
