Putting All Our Hopes In Sam Ryder for Eurovision 2022 ………

To be honest we were a bit surprised when Darrell’s phone pinged last week (10th March) with the BBC announcing that Sam Ryder was going to represent the UK in the Eurovision Song Contest  (our most televisual highlight of the year) in Italy this year.

Now, we have to apologise profusely because we are total strangers to Tik Tok and therefore Sam ………

……. and we’re not afraid to admit that at first we were all felt a little let down, especially when  remembering last years horrific gastropublic nul points!

However, we’d be incredibly remiss and dismissive if we didn’t at least try to find out more about Sam, so imagine how we felt when learned that he is one of the most followed singers on said Tik Tok with 20 million fans ....... 

……. and then …….. we went on YouTube to find his/our song ……….

……… and that’s when Darrell got his beloved, lucky Stockholm Eurovision bangle, from when he actually went in 2016 in real life, off his bedroom shelf, exclaiming that he had a funny, fizzy feeling in his water that this year, could very well be “Our Year”...........

............ and with hair like Sam's, his team would be missing a trick if they didn't plan to make good use of the Eurovision wind machine when they start planning his set!

So it's with a feeling of tangible and palpable excitement that we are completely behind Sam ........ and anything we can do for him ……. he’s only to ask!
