Touch My (Eurovision) Fire

This Saturday, it's time once again for that highlight of the televisual calendar throughout Europe (and Israel), the Eurovision Song Contest. You just can't beat it for empty spectacle, some good tunes, some dreadful ones, a range of "interestiing" wardrobe choices, and for UK viewers, the delightfully irreverent commentary of Terry Wogan. And after the songs, there's the hilarity of the whole "I'll scratch your back if you'll scratch mine" voting procedure. All in all, a great night's entertainment.

So as a small tribute, here's a selection of links to prepare you for your Eurotastic experience, live from Kyiv.
