	I never watch it - saw it when Dana won with "All kinds of everything" -?? Think that was it no wonder I wasn't much cop at geography in school - I had no idea that Aezerbaijan was in Europe - along with a lot of other countries :-S :-S

	It isn't in Europe it is Asia Minor. The Europe handle is a hang over thing from when it was first tsarist possession and then a USSR republic and Russia decided where "Europe" was. In any case David Cameron and William Hague believe nearby Turkey is in Europe while Bulgaria and Romania are clearly not. A former foreign secretary, Douglas Hurd, believed that Serbia, Croatia etc were also clearly not in Europe and therefore NATO (an organisation founded to protect peace in Europe) had nothing to do. FIFA / EUFA also have an elastic definition of Europe and it would be perfectly possible for Vladivostock to host a game if it had a good enough team. So don't worry about your school geography. Blondie should get all the BBC2 listeners bouncing away on the sofa anyway, smart move by the Beeb. She is up against some tuff stuff, the home team have a Black Sabbath heavy metal number ( rustling sounds as Blondie fans hide behind the sofa ). Nul points, quelqu'un ?
