Rat-o-Vision Song Contest still

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, where 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 Rat-o-vision trophy. OK, ‘glittering’ might be a strong word. Anyway, along the way, we see Thomas Edison rock out for America, Poland’s entry try to 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 will win the coveted* trophy? Tune in to find out... *coveted by Rattus – we’re not sure about anyone else.
