    Between the Close Encounters themed intro and now the bridge indoors, Netherlands clearly doing a 'we do weed and augmented reality bitch, back off'.

    Germany for an outsider

    Also what's the story with the host who is towering above the others? Is she really a 'she' or something else a bit woke?

    Probably the strongest contest I can remember. So many could win !!

    Ireland really have to step up their game.

    The voting should be interesting , thou I always thought it was a contest used for money laundering , voting wise !!

    Completely agree, enjoyed all but 5 songs I'd say. The standard is very very high.

    If Flo Rida wins it the game changes

    We should then start ringing up everyone who claims to be Irish


    "Mariah Carey - how are you fixed for next May?"

    Quick google shows she’s a transgender YouTube with millions of subscribers. Seems she got outed involuntarily a few years ago but has a massively successful YouTube channel, so fair play to her.

    Pretty sure Beyonce is originally from Louth.

    Did the Eurovision get good in recent years? It’s roped me back in recent years or was I just missing out for the 20 or so years I missed.

    Finally clocked it ... El Diablo is very very very similar to Nothing Breaks Like a Heart by Molly Cyrus and Mark Ronson

    I think that's a big issue with the big 5.

    I honestly think RTE have thrown it a few years in a row because they want to say they're underfunded and need more money.

    Didn't Madonna turn up at this a few years ago?

    That was inspiring.
