    I think that’s a very cruel way to reveal the voting. Poor Czech Republic, Northern Macedonia and Sweden were never really in with a shout in all reality and I think the Macedonian act knew it well, she seemed very surprised to be doing so well as the juries came out.

    It could be Rotterdam, or anywhere....


    Liverpool, or Rome.

    It was just all over the place. I understood it eventually. It was a great way to do it!

    7 points for the czechs...what the hell!
    I knew Macedonia would bomb with public, shocked Sweden did so poorly with public though, they didn't deserve to win with that song

    I was wondering why the song was so popular but I always find that at the end when they perform it again you can see that the audience nearly always get it right....although last years winner was shockingly bad.

    It's the European Broadcasting Union, of which Australia has been apart of for years. That's why we get programmes like Home & Away etc etc.

    Yeah, load of bollix...So, for how long has Home & Away been shown in Ireland (and other EU countries)?

    Farce

    Despite a bit of a let down win with the favourite taking it, I must say that was a brilliant Eurovision. A bit long, but the intro was superb with the plane and country flags. The interval acts were all decent bar madonna. Especially that wonderful Cypriot Fuego bird was just about nude.

    I loved the high tech LED and floor and the CGI effects too. Looks like that's the new standard for Eurovision staging.

    Brain frazzled. Adding in the public vote cranks up the tension no end.

    Germany handed a nul points in the most public way I can remember in a long time. Ouch!

    The ‘professional’ jury’s murdered Norway’s chances of winning.

    Really enjoyed the show. We voted for The Netherlands, and our 2nd favourite was Italy. 😄. We couldn't understand the love for the swedish song at all.

    My PP account is up by €3.33 since last year. Win/lose I’m nudging above bookies in a tiny way. An absolute mug’s game if sucked into more bets as they all try to get you to do. My one has given up on me, knows I’m in it just for the annual Eurovision where they know they make a tiny loss.
