Rat-o-Vision Song Contest
If you watch one Song Contest this year, then make sure it's the Eurovision Song Contest! But if you watch two, then look no further than this Rat-o-vision special, as Rattus dons his sparkly golden waistcoat for a glittering affair that brings you a host of Historical bangers from around the world, as our International acts battle it out to win the glittering Ratovision trophy… ok ‘glittering' might be a strong word. Anyway, along the way we'll see Thomas Edison rock out for America, Poland's entry also try and achieve world peace as well as a win, a bunch of Renaissance men sing an Italian power ballad, German Nun Hildegard von Bingen seeking to inspire everyone, Greece's entry aim for the stars, Elizabeth I somehow representing both England and Spain, and three Egyptian Pharaohs sing a song from beyond the grave! Who'll win the coveted* trophy? Tune in to find out… *coveted by Rattus – we're not sure about anyone else.
