The British public broadcaster BBC launched its official 2005 Eurovision Song Contest website. “More thrilling than the UK elections, more colourful than Jordan's rubber suit and much more welcome than the thought of a night on an island in a tent on the Dnipro river banks”, according to the Entertainment Department of the BBC. They might be right!
Besides message boards, wallpapers and videos you can also test yourself, learn who are Ukraine's most famous sons and daughters, apply to be on the official backup jury and become the ultimate Eurovision Song Contest superfan. In the Terryisms generator you can make Terry Wogan talk. Among them, his famous but controversial 2001 quote “look, it's Doctor Death and the Tooth Fairy”, referring to show hosts Søren Pilmark and Natascha Crone.
Apparantly, we scared Terry Wogan with our story about the tent accommodation in Kyiv. “Wogan is worried that he'll be staying in a tent when he visits the Ukraine next month. He spoke on his Radio 2 show about potentially having to sleep in an orange tent erected on Truhanov Island in the middle of the main river in Kiev.”
Just as the BBC Entertainment Department, we can't imagine Terry Wogan in a tent either. But if it happens, we will definitely pay him an early visit to wake up with Wogan.
