I thought Wogan was rubbish - bored and boring. But today a colleague has already run the 'he's the only good thing about it' line at me. UNRTUEST THING EVAH.
I don't see how you can think he's bored, he clearly cares about it a lot, and has a definite idea of how it should be! I'm absolutely not advocating putting him in charge of anything, but his perpetual Waldorf and Statler routine is good entertainment (results may vary with sense of humour, as with everything ever).
if he does i have ZERO idea what it is -- at least as regards "what i t.wogan dares to declare is good music" (or even "good eurovision spectacle")
obv he thinks that eg bosnia shd vote for the UK rather then serbia, and can only believe that serbia was voted for for "illicit" reasons -- but what are his "proper" reasons for voting?
His idea of how it should be is that the UK should win occasionally, and as such, because he thinks that, everyone else should. He's a blind, one-eyed, egocentric commentator who has nothing interesting to say, and also, he wasn't even funny this year. The last time I remember him actually being funny was 2003.
His opinion of what type of music is "good" or "good for Eurovision" changes every year anyway. If the English submitted a sweeping Balkan ballad, Terry would immediately love the stuff. His taste varies with whatever gives him room to make snide comments.
