    Would there typically be a radical change from the jury v's the public vote?

    Switzerland were gash, no idea why they are getting points. France was ok, but very eurovision-ey, so far enough

    I don’t think the British act was the worst.

    But I also don’t think it was in the top twelve of anyone’s lists, and so it gets murdered. Cause that’s how this voting works. If everyone agrees your song was, say, the 13th best, then you get zero points. You need to convince at least one person to say it was in the top. 12.

    I don't know quite how to interpret the fact the Graham Norton's reactions to the hot women are the same as mine(a straight guy)....

    I think when he says their dresses are nice he actually means that their dresses are nice

    Yes. Changes things massively.

    Joe Duffy did an entire show on why Ireland didn't get through. There were lots of people ringing in incredulous we didn't get through. Same sort of thing happening in the UK right now.

    The song and performance was the worst in the show. A lot of the countries who don’t have to qualify not doing good.

    Agree, I had to give her a vote for it and I not intended on doing so.

    Don’t get me wrong, a lot of good, fun songs but I feel people are getting back to the real meaningful songs over the last while. It’s not all about sequins and sexy dancing anymore.
