NEVER one to shy away from a hilarious take, Scottish tennis star Andy Murray has now given his thoughts on a particularly divisive Eurovision entry.
On Saturday night’s show, Finland’s entry Windows95Man along with his friend Henri Piispanen emerged from a denim-wrapped egg in the middle of the stage.
For much of their performance however, Windows95Man appeared not to be wearing any trousers – something the two-time Wimbledon winner was apparently shocked by.
Camera operators were forced to stand in very specific places to avoid anything people weren't expecting to see.
Writing on Twitter/X, Murray said: “Is there a chap on stage with his Boaby out at the Eurovision? Didn’t expect to see that on BBC One.”
Many were left in stitches at Murray’s take, with one commenting: “Can’t unread this in his voice”.
“Andy Murray using the ‘boaby’ wasn’t on my score cord for any time ever,” another user added.
A third meanwhile was left unsure at Murray’s use of Scots slang and asked, “and what, pray tell, is a ‘boaby’?”

A fourth person meanwhile said it had “made my day” while somebody else called on Murray to take on a new role as a Eurovision commentator from now on.
Never change Andy, never change.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
