Nul points?

It's always been somewhat of a curiosity that Israel take part in the Eurovision Song Contest although they are not a European country.  Apparently the answer is that the right to take part in the Song Contest is not contingent on being a member of Europe, but upon being a member of the European Broadcasting Union, which Israel are, as indeed are Egypt, Jordan, Libya and a few other countries in the region, although they have never taken part.  Anyway, all this pales into insignificance against the news that this year's contest will include Australia.  Australia?  Europe? The mind boggles!
