Interview with Terry
Ìý
What do you think of this year's UK entry?
The UK's best for years – but will any song from Western Europe ever win again?
Ìý
What to you think of the other entries this year?
I never dislike any country's entry. For me, it's a great, spectacular, foolish frolic.
Ìý
What do you think of Ireland's entry, Irelande Douze Points?
I'm not sure that it will make the final – they mightn't get the joke in Belarus or Moldova. I'm also not sure that any entry should try to be funnier than the contest itself.
Ìý
What have been the best and worst entries of all time?
The best was undoubtedly Waterloo – the 1974 winner for Abba – the definitive Eurosong. The worst..? Where do I begin?
Ìý
What are your favourite things about Eurovision?
It's the only international television/radio event of its kind anywhere. The Americans would kill for something like it. A wonderful idea – bringing Europe together in song – a huge, brilliantly produced triumph of musical mediocrity.
