The first lyric of this Eurovision:

"oh my god, you're such a good writer"

The final lyric of this Eurovision:

Nicely done.

Just remembered, when you did one of Paul O’Grady’s shows you’d sometimes get a pressie. One time, I was blooming gobsmacked. He’d bought me a first edition of my favourite novel, Hangover Square by Patrick Hamilton. Pure class.💄

Something I've been discussing with pals:
