World of Chig

Man with big cock

Plucking hell! As if the Tuesday semi-final of this year's Eurovision wasn't festooned enough with poultry from Ireland, Bosnia-Herzegovina presented this theatrical gem last night as its entry - and they're drawn in the same semi as Dustin The Turkey! What is this fowl obsession gripping Europe?

This Bosnian entry is like nothing I've ever seen or heard before. It's like a song from a musical, a bit Wizard of Oz, a bit of the music box from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and with a backing group of dungareed gentlemen who I swear I've seen before in a Hungarian film of a rather specialist nature. (One of you knows which one - it was at your house!) It's either a disjointed load of rubbish or inspired, demented genius. I'm angling towards the latter. Whatever it is, the tune stays in your head afterwards and that's half the battle. What do you make of it?
