The bookies have slashed the odds on Glasgow now making it a firm favourite.
I have a range of weekends with free cancelleation booked
San Marino are going to have four semi finals!
I’d take Finland over Sweden any day of the week but I can’t say I’m hugely impressed by any of those songs. Irish one is one of the better ones.
My favs
Serbia
Croatia
Portugal
Czechia
Fair play to Rylan joking about the teeth ha
Y’know, I’ve always wanted to visit Israel.
:)
Listening on radio and have to say, for a song contest, there's a fair amount of instantly forgettable songs. Hope the visuals are better!
Think I'll keep my €12 rather than texting 20 times!
LOL _ i turned on + 1 - seen the first song again and didn't even know I was watching the show again 😂
I want whatever you are smoking, please!
for is to qualify, which 5 countries need to go home?
malta
netherlands
czechia
latvia
Switzerland
and there’s Azerbaijan too
… mebbe we have a chance?
Dutch song the best in that.
I don't rate Sweden either, don't know what all the hype is about.
'we are one' put on a brilliant performance. They were very good. Hopefully they get through. If not... I don't know... I have no words...
Anyone else think it's been a poor night overall? And isn't this the stronger Semi on paper?
p
Even listening to the playbacks there it was the worst by far to me.
I'll also have some 🤣
Can't see Malta go home
Don’t you dare murder Ordinary World!!!!
Alesha, Hannah and Julia doing a decent presenting job tonight.
I’ll save my annual ‘Get Rid Of Marty Whelan’ rant for tomorrow morning.
Great!!!!, an original cover,zzzzzzzz
The lighting is epic.
Prepare to have no words.
Genuinely I would put us at about 12th best case.
Ireland put in a good performance - but song just too slow and weak at the start.
Eurovision traffic is crashing boards!!!
Visuals are excellent
I've decided I love Finland, typicial mad over the top Eurovision song but at least that means you remember it.
Spare a thought for the Irish figure skater who’s missing his gold jumpsuit tonight.
Excellent visuals, sh*t vocal performance
That wasn't great - 1/2 done
Ireland were awful, pitchy, weak vocals, genuinely horrific NSFW costume. It's a pity coz I like the song. No chance of qualifing.
I also thought Sweden was terrible.
Shockingly for me, my top 3 would be Finland, Norway and Portugal. I can't believe I love the Finland song but it was just bonkers.
Honestly BBC have totally knocked this out of the park. Miles better than the Italians last year.
Don’t you mean ‘Durran Durran’?
