Eurovision Song Contest 2025 - Mod warning in the OP

LordBasil

Enjoy tonight everyone. So excited 😊 I feel this is going to be very unpredictable. I think we'll have a nail biter tonight. Please God don't let Sweden win. I can't take another year of Petra so soon.

My feeling is that Finland or Albania could challenge and watch out for Italy...

I've gone against the strong favourite (Sweden) and have placed a win bet on Austria.

I’m not disagreeing with you but do you seriously think RTE would spend €1 million on the Eurovision!?! There would be a public outcry. Seriously….. not a hope that will ever happen.

With Australia's Milkshake Man curdling in the semifinal, there's only one hope for the win for me.

2025 suggestive smut is of a much higher standard than the UK's unbelievably rotten effort in 2024

Up Suomi!

Oh I agree. How much does Dancibg With The Staff or all those eejits talking shíte in the band of analysis after short events cost? I was being hypothetical but if €300,000 isn’t nigh then maybe €500,000. Ray though. RTE is basucallly a theatrical organisation on one level. If they don’t have the people in house to prep acts for Eurovision properly, then there are serious questions to answer. It’s all BS from RTE.

Some of the songs on this ‘Doctor Who’ episode are better than this year’s Eurovision entries, etc.

Care to hazard a guess as to which Eurovision entrants over the years were actually aliens in disguise?

Apart from Dustin obviously.

Re "5 Scandinavian countries", Scandinavia consists of Denmark, Norway and Sweden. The three of these countries along with Finland and Iceland make up the 5 Nordic countries.

Omg graham saying rumours swirling that Celine dion could make an appearance 😳 I hope so

dublinman1990

Graham just said on BBC1 that Celine Dion is somewhere around Basel tonight.

She is rumoured to make an appearance at the Eurovision Grand Final later on tonight.

We just have to keep our eyes peeled when it happens.
