Get ready for another big fat slice of delicious Eurovision betting odds, please.

Have you ever harboured a desire to compete in the Eurovision Song Contest, but can’t because you’re a spangle-addicted toddler? Well fret no more – the Junior Eurovision Song Contest is here! Well not here exactly, but in Cyprus in November. If you’re a taste-deficient child or a slightly creepy adult, now’s your chance to shine. Make us proud kids.

Here are the Eurovision betting odds for Ireland, with help from Paddy Power…

Ireland (pop. 4,109,086, the third largest island in Europe, and the twentieth-largest island in the world) Dustin The Turkey, Irelande Douze Pointe

Oh Ireland, what have you done? Time was when you could just roll up to Eurovision, croon out a lazy country tune, sling in a cheesy pennywhistle interlude and you’d have it in the bag. But not any longer. Now you have to hire a children’s TV presenter to shout vaguely offensive lyrics and waggle his arm around inside a latex turkey to even stand a chance. However, as obviously dreadful as Dustin The Turkey is, his tune Irelande Douze Pointe is… well, maybe not clever, but it’s certainly memorable. Plus it names all the countries in the currently dominant eastern bloc, and who doesn’t love the sight of a grotesque turkey puppet begging for votes, huh? And, who knows, it might actually work – as things stand, Dustin The Turkey is the favourite to win Eurovision this year. We’re all doomed. Current Eurovision betting odds – 4/1

Tomorrow – Israel! But if that’s too long to wait – or you feel like making more money than you know what to do with – head right over to the Paddy Power Eurovision betting odds page to see the latest, and best, betting odds.
