Brilliant idea find 1200 TC with GC mobile cards and get them to vote 10 times each...brilliant..you must have many blue peter badges. No GCs voted for her thats why she lost, if they were unbiased shes would have gotten more votes.

You need to listen to Zelish again she is rarely out of tune I have heard her live and she very good, thought she was one of the best on the night but with 800.000 GC voters she didnt stand a chance. We are still real proud of her did real well considering the pressure she was under but the outcome was known from the outset.

Her song was yesteryear…


She was clearly copying the Greek entry from last year ... a poor impersonation!

Typical Turk ...

And although I didnt hear the other songs I must say a well done to Zelis,it took a lot of guts to agree to enter knowing she was probably on a hiding to nothing


We are proud of her as you said it must have been real hard knowing from the outset she was going to lose, would have been shocked if it had been different.

She came 5th out of 10, and very near the 4th and 3rd. So whats your point?

It is you who is biased if you think she should have won, since her song was surely not the best one and not the second best either. The max she could have got with that song was the 3rd place.

Yeah, I agree with that... all up just 30,000 odd votes were cast, many from the same phones!


The potential of 800.000 GC votes is what counts, theres a far better advanatge if you have this sort of pool.
