hey guys i was n jury last year . you should apply it such a great few days . by the way you dont know what the results of the jury are .
unlucky owen, ive now tried, hopefully the fact i am young will succede (aaaaa only 3 days after esc final my gcses start!!!!!)
@ Simon Clifford, yes, that's sad, but why do you sau "thank god" for them..? I wish Russia had won that year...
Does anyone know, will other countries have back-up juries too? Because I haven't seen such "ads" seeking back-up jury members for any other country. Maybe they do it internally 
Shame I have a French Oral Exam on that day 
so there isn't much point in me applying!
Oh well there is always next year!
Great fun ?! Do you watch it on a big shiny tv with nice cusion chairs? Or do they just shove you all in a small room like sardines?
The Dutch used a standby jury in 2000. Oh, and if the people or Ireland voted in 2003, Jemini would get 1 ironic little point!
I was a UK Jury member in 1986! We gave Germany its only 12 points that year.... Great fun at BBC TV Centre though...
Thank god the the Irish jury in 2003, something went wrong there, and the jury gave no points to Russia, hence preventing a Tatu victory!
