When worlds collide: Ziggy and Chanelle
When we first heard that Ziggy and Chanelle are limbering up for a run at Eurovision, we thought the idea was for them to do it together. We could just about see that - a marvellous, campy, sniping-at-each-other, Anything You Could Briefly Do I Can Do Better type affair. Obviously, since in the UK they can barely manage a downpage in the middle of New! magazine, the whole thing would be spectacularly pointless beyond Dover, but at least it would have some coherence.
But it turns out they're planning two separate tries. Chanelle has, at least, convinced her mother:
"Chanelle’s very good at music. She’s an A* student and plays the violin at Grade Seven. She is always singing at home."
Even that, actually, sounds more convincing than Ziggy's pedigree:
He sang with the group Northern Line between 1998-2000 and had three top 40 hits.
... which nobody alive can remember.

We've got Michelle Gayle, Andy Abraham, half of Clea, someone from Joseph, someone from Maria, and what sounds like a Pipettes rip off (but is probably more like a Mark Ronson rip off)
Do I get points for remembering that one of them was called 'Love On The Northern Line'?
Thought not...
Love on the Metropolitan Line would be far easier, surely? You could at least get some privacy then.

No points, but you do get the chance to read out the votes from the UK jury if Colin Berry's ill.
