    Sweden did a good job with the comedy a few years ago

    However, it did bugger up the monopoly we had on winning Eurovision, so that evens it out.
    Plenty of winners in western Europe recently enough though.
    We just keep sending crap....one final in eight

    Agreed it was terrible. The German, Finnish,French, Russian, Isreali and Italian entrance were not much better either. I hope none of them win.

    Live long and Prosper

    Peace and long life.

    Yeah. On balance, I think it was a mistake.

    I have to say, the only ones I really hated were Switzerland, Norway and I forget the third.

    If it came down to being between Italy and France, I would give it to France, she put in an exceptional performance.

    That Swiss tune is proper in fairness. My 12 points go to it. And my 10 to Germany, just for that "whaaat?" bit.

    Ukraine is bonkers, so some points for them. Italy was great too, and the Finns.

    El Diablo and Mata Hari hands down the catchiest tunes of the night.

    Malta the best singer.
