Talk:United Kingdom in the Eurovision Song Contest 2006

The following claim appears in this article:

Teenage Life includes a choir of young girls and during the performance on Making Your Mind Up their voices were mimed by older dancers. Such a performance would fall foul of EBU rules which has a minimum age limit for performers, prohibits miming and restricts the number of performers allowed on stage (i.e. no choirs). For the performance at the Eurovision, the vocals were sung live by the dancers.

Unless I am wrong, it was the same girls who performed at Making Your Mind Up and who performed at the Eurovision. Only one girl was substituted because of her age, and that was not due to an age limit in the Eurovision, but merely down to the bureaucracy that would have been involved in taking her. I have rewritten the article to this effect. TomPhil 09:43, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
