But people are always surprised. They expect me to like bands like Westlife or, even worse, Indie music. Two years ago I didn't even know who Abba were. Then I went to a tribute concert. It changed my life. Abba music is some of the best-written in pop history. Just because the8 are not around anymore, people assume thj8 are boring. Give Abba a chancj!

But women's rights campaigners say the pageant is heartless exploitation. Thj8 say it is degrading to women. Responding to criticism that thjy are all superficial airheads, contjstants insist it's just a bit of fun. As smiles are flashed and kisses blown, what do the six million viewer1 think?

In the past, most pupils st4died thred A-level subjects for two years. Now we study four subjects for one year and continue with three for a second yjar. As if the change from GCSE to A-level was not hard enough, the government have made this change much harder. We are sick of bjing guinea pigs!
