The 6 acts announced to battle it out to be the UK's entry to this year's Eurovision Song Contest are.........

Michelle Gayle.......ex EastEnder who had a hit with her song Sweetness years ago

Andy Abraham.......was one of the favourites to win X Factor in 2006

Rob McVeigh.......competed to try and win the role of Joseph on the TV reality show Any Dream Will Do

Simona Armstrong.......was in the How Do You Solve a Problem Like Maria TV reality prog

Then we've got 2 girl groups rounding the acts off........LoveShy and The Revelations

No matter who wins they won't have a hope of winning Eurovision.

Well I suppose it depends on the song.....why is it that its always about the people who sing it in the UK these days and not the songs?

As for winning Our Turkey is going to do that...who'd have thought I could ever say that

Hardly any country votes for the UK so even if we had a fantastic song we still wouldn't win!

Get voting for Dustin to win Luc......I want to see him/it at the Eurovision

the problem is since the iraq war , and all that every euro song contest , no one likes anymore so they never vote for us , may be we should just pull the plug on it ,   after all if we didi that then there would be no competiton .

Yep I do think that is a factor but that is not the reason you haven't won...as the songs the UK have entered with were really crap aswell  

There was a debate about Dustin in Eurovision yesterday on a programme and loads were on saying he was making a mockery of the competition that we won more than any other country...others were stating that the Euro has changed now big time and its not about the song really any more.....I reckon let the Turkey represent us we couldn't do much worse than last year anyway

I can't even remember the UK entry from last year  

It's all about politics more than anything else.......you just know which countries will vote for each other even though their songs might be rubbish. I think we should stop entering it!
