Eurovision: Við erum ekki eins slæm og Írland í ár

Ef íslendingum finnst framlag íslands til Eurovision vera slæmt í ár. Þá getum við þakkað fyrir að vera ekki Írar, þar sem að það stefnir í að framlag þeirra sér verra en framlag Íslands í ár.

Fowl Eurovision entry for Ireland

Eurovision Song Contest feathers may be ruffled by Ireland’s decision to be represented in May’s cross-continental competition by a puppet bird.

Dustin The Turkey was plucked from a rafter of six finalists, winning a televised vote on Saturday night.

The cult figure’s gobbled rendition of Irelande Douze Pointe – a parody of the Eurovision voting system – secured his place at the top of the pecking order.

Dustin now aims to restore Irish pride battered by recent Eurovision failures.

But while Dustin beat off national opposition in broadcaster RTE’s Eurosong on Saturday, he now faces a pressure cooker environment at May’s Eurovision, where he will have to fight off competition from all over Europe.
