Originally slated for next week, SBS has withdrawn Junior Eurovision 2009 from its schedule, to be replaced with a 2001 Egyptian movie.
The junior songfest recently held in Kyiv, was due to air on Wednesday January 6th at 1pm.
No doubt SBS is holding it until EV 2010 due in May.

Now scheduled for 14 April at 1.00pm. Not really sure why this date is more preferable to the original January scheduling. Certainly doesn’t coincide with the main event in May.
As for me, the adult Eurovision is much more interesting. There are serious candidates with really popular new songs that can become hits on Eurovision.
Thanks Ajdin 🙂
Watched it now – so… Sorry SBS – shan’t be watching you when you finally screen it
Make promises you can keep next time.
This is a brilliant film from the late great Youssef Chahine… Very melodramatic and just the ticket I would say… Don’t miss it!
Has SBS run out of money to show it ?
It was available for viewing at the official JESC website during the contest and a bit after, not sure about now though.
Bad form SBS
Already it is too late and By May will be totally non topical
If I can find it online I wont be watching when you screen it
Robbed. Love that spooky junior euro
pretty lame, SBS.
