May have an adverse effect on activity and attention. No thoughts, head empty, but on the rare occasions I do have a thought, you'll see it here.

I think people have this imagined sophisticated version of him, based on no more than vibes and the fact he's French

Had no idea on the second one even though it comes up in quiz all the time, estimated it based on the picture. Well done on the last question. what was it again, I already forgot?

I think that's exactly why I like it. Someone had a childhood dream of turning an MX-5 into a Little Tykes car, and they were determined to do it, throwing caution and good taste to the wind

5, 6, 7, 8. (ooh, Steps!) They do.

9. I used to live in a place where there was no service on a Sunday, meant you couldn't go out Saturday night. But that's unusual.

10. I had to Google that. Replaced by machines, from what I can gather.

11, 12. I know this has been tried with trams

1. I asked a train nerd, he said they don't crash often enough for that to be necessary
2. Some do, but rail workers are human and would like Christmas off
3. They try, but do you really expect that kind of weight to stop like a car?
4. ...what sort of trains have you been on, prisoner transport?

I hope a real person didn't ask these, half of them have the answer "err... they do?"

So close on the two I was fairly sure on, and totally fluked the last one

Is it some sort of patient confidentiality thing? I've had exactly the same problem, where it's taken a hell of a lot of willpower to stop myself from saying "I've been asked this countless times over the last few days, can't you just write it down somewhere?"

The fact he's in Dubai doesn't "match" with the rest of his opinions, for lack of a better phrase. Very odd

Even when the UK had a national selection show, it was never taken seriously at all. Some years, it was even a segment on other TV shows. I think that's the main reason Eurovision has a bad reputation in the UK, though it's better since Sam Ryder's 2nd place

It was probably in the contract that these specific songwriters had to be used, as silly as it is, they were probably hired by the broadcaster. Wonder how much he's made in YouTube ad revenue/ music streaming on various platforms on his older stuff between his announcement and today.

Oh absolutely. It was pretty clear which ones had effectively bought their way in, because they spent the next 5 years being absolutely furious at their own inadequacy. And these are the people who will go on to run the country.

I know this wasn't just about the UK, but I feel like winning isn't their priority this year. They know winning this year wouldn't be the reputation boost it normally would be, so they've sent something a bit weird cos why not?
