I love the UK songs throughout the eurovision..... But this has to be the worse entry by a MILE.. DREADFUL

Best song won by FAR

Not much choice this year But the best won

Best song won

Best song won by a mile

Terry Wogan is so missed Never the same without him. Wonder how his comments would be nowadays with how dreadful the contest has become. This was a great entry for the UK... Should have done better in the contest though Regards Andrew

Live Report the best by a mile

Ryder were great. The song “don’t hang up on love” would have done so well at Eurovision but maybe a bit too typical. The “war of the roses” was my personal favourite.

Song 8 "Lover Come In" was by far and away the best song here, and sung and performed superbly well by Brendan Faye. Quite similar to the folk pop of the seventies, very easy on the ear.

The guy's funny.

No diversity here. Those were the days.

Des Dyer should've won to host UK. Just superb.

By far Kim was the best - song number 7

I thought "Everybody" was the best song, albeit not of the kind likely to do much at Eurovision. After that "What you Gonna Do" was worth a look. "Too Hot to Handle" may have had the best chance at the contest. The rest were somewhat non-descript.

You can play safe with the familiar or take a punt on something that brings more to the table. I have a feeling the right song for the contest won. I just think there were better songs and/or more interesting options: 1. Nina Shaw - "Look at Me Now" - a strong song, good singer, contemporary in the best sense. 2. Sinitta - "Imagination" - the exaggerated dancing distracted from the song, but edging the rest in being ‘with it,’ high energy. 3. Miriam Anne Lesley - "Let It Shine" - decent ballad, but would it stand out in a contest? 4. Belle and the Devotions - "Love games" - Motown rehash, average voices. It catches the ears and the eyes, so may be a safe selection. I just wondered ‘why?’ at the time and still do. Idle. 5. First Division - "Where the Action Is" - lively song, energetic vocals, of a type we’ve seen many times before. I really didn’t like the remaining three and shall say no more. That Hazell Dean song, though ..

awful

Song 7: Bardot.... freaking best song ever!! They came 7th. I loved the song as a kid... it takes me back to our family road trip to Italy. I still have it on my playlist and know all the words.

37:30 no music or applause for the scoreboard lol

awful winner, cant sing.. torture

Carrie Grant <3 <3

I like how Waterloo was mixed into the opening sequence of UK entries, showing just what a massive hit it was.

Do you have any from the 60's???

A nice song But it need a bit of extra power in place

13:25 No Easy way written by Tony Hiller and by The Famous Stewart and Bradley James aka The James Boys

Man, those songs were total turds

Man, what a load of sh*t songs

The national final performance of bardo is worlds better here. How did the orchestra butcher their home entry in the contest? I also believe their vocals are nicer here, and they have more space to move on the stage. Its still good at the contest but it wouldve definitely got a better result if it was like this perfomance.

I attended as part of the udience. Thank you for sharing. Thr right song was chosen and came 4 th

Interesting to see that in the national final Emma gave a much stronger and less childish performance than in Zagreb - but nevertheless my choice would have been Kim Goody's "Sentimental again" ... 💏

Well, to me: "High windows" by a mile. 👌 😨 Remains a mystery to me how "Go" could even get close to "Ne partez pas sans moi" in Dublin. 😣😾 Before the last set of votes from Yugoslavia I threatened to break our TV screen, if the UK would beat Switzerland that year. 👊 For once it worked ... 😰 Usually I agree with the winning song once in ten years only (1961, 1970, 1979, 1988, 1995 and 2014).

Well, Terry Wogan always seemed to be drunk, but I guess in 1986 he was close to a forced admission. By the way, were all hairdressers in the UK on strike or what? 😨 Nevertheless I'm actually positively surprised. "Runner in the night" is one of my most disliked Eurovision entries ever and I'm still furious about each single point it received in Bergen. So I pretty much expected a preselection nightmare here. What proved to be true - until the very last song: "War of the roses" would have been one of my favorite UK entries ever, joining "Where are you" from 1998, "I can" from 2011, "Love enough for two" from 1980 and "Lonely symphony" from 1994. 🌹 Love it! ♥ All's well that ends well ...

😏😼 Ah, back in time when a fourth place still was considered a bad result for the UK - and when people obviously wore shocking glasses. By the way, i never really understood the urge to drag along chairs onto stage. And what's the black thing she's crumpling? Fishnet tights? Anyway, I would have preferred "Dancing in the night", but on the other hand the UK has sent much worse entries to Eurovision than "Love is". 🐚

Voting results (by seven juries located in Glasgow, Birmingham, Bristol, Belfast, London, Manchester and Cardiff, each of them awarding a set of 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12 and 15 points): 1. Bardo 76 points 🏆 (incl. one top vote from London) Fun fact: In Harrogate Bardo scored 76 points as well, incl. two top votes from Luxembourg and Austria. =2. The Touring Company 69 points (incl. two top votes from Birmingham and Bristol) =2. Good Looks 69 points =4. Lovin Feeling 60 points (incl. one top vote from Wales) =4. Paul Curtis 60 points (incl. one top vote from Northern Ireland) 6. Q Feel 59 points (incl. one top vote from Scotland) 7. The Weltons 58 points 8. Rich Gypsy 53 points (incl. one top vote from Manchester)

😂😹 OmG, what a hilarious Eurovision parody show - I'm laughing my ass off ... And the best thing: Mae Muller would fit in just perfectly❗😱❕😨❗

I was in the audience. My choice was Ryder and then Vanity Fayre. The standard was good. I enjoyed it. I sadly broke the record Dreamer from Vanity Fayre. Still looking for a replacement.

How in the name of everything that is holy did "Dancing in Heaven" not win this??? SMH...

It seems like a lot of people didn't like this year (UK at least). I'm wondering what everyone's thoughts are on 1984? Imo most the songs that year, if not all of them, were good. They were a lot more fleshed out and had far fewer low moments. (However, I personally don't like the winning song, Love Games. Probably the flattest of the bunch). If anyone hasn't seen it, here's the link to the 1984 Song for Europe. Credit again to ESC UKFan for archiving it!: ruclips.net/video/aG_Vmb9XkEM/видео.html
