I feel like most Saturday TV from my childhood wouldn't hold up, but in my mind at least Gladiators was the exception! Really hope they don't ruin it.

I have no idea, we mostly only watch TV TV when Eurovision is on!

We fell in with a new group of friends over the last few years, the type of friends that have house parties for events. We've introduced them to the wonders of Eurovision, and it's now one of the events that warrants a house party.

I think this year we're telling one of the families that it's fancy dress, and they have to come as their pick from last year, but nobody else is dressing up and everybody else is in on the joke. It's gonna be a hoot. Can't wait.

Unless you get Uno reversed and the joke is really that everyone is in fancy dress except you.

Nah that would still be a hoot. It's my house so I'd be able to whip something together I'm sure

Worst case scenario you can make an emergency toga by tying together some of the collection of giant flags you have from countries you supported in previous years.
