From: Song For Europe
Inspired by Dougal’s enthusiasm and driven on by his rivalry with Father Dick Byrne, Ted decides to enter the 1996 Eurosong Contest. To this end, he and Dougal “borrow” a tune from an old Eurosong hopeful (“We’ll just be celebrating their memory, don’t tell anyone, incidentally”) and enter it as their own. With inspired lyrics, a jaunty tune and the right attitude, they stand a good chance, but fate has one more card to deal.
