Ah, missed this. Finland were excellent but Croatia more Eurovision. Ireland were a little scary.

Always a good watch.

Play the Ireland one too loud and your lawn will die.

I liked it!

I liked the Swiss guy’s tilting disk staging but now waiting for Johnny Logan.
Or was he on for the first semi?

Sweden's opener "Unforgettable" must have been named ironically.

Woof. Something for the mums from Luxemburg. Reckon we are in for a night of topless blokes then?  Another Star Wars fan too circa Leia in Return of Jedi.

31 years since their last appearance and we get this?

Lithuania are embracing chubby Michael Jackson fashion circa 1984. Hope there are no pyrotechnics with this one as things could go south pretty darn quickly.......The Kick Ass dance costumes are an interesting fashion choice too.......

Wow! Dollar are back although the years have not been kind........the singer is a year younger than Kylie allegedly. Perhaps in dog years.........more filler than an 84 Ford Escort. The dancers have clearly escaped from Wigan Town Hall night of wrestling for World of Sport. Mick McManus is alive and well........

Now this is more like it. A proper Eurovision classic from estonia. Loving the nod to 2Unlimited with the deep voiced one who looks like Bullet baxter from Grange Hill. Properly shit Dad dancing too. This absolutely ticks all my boxes!

Jaysus ****! What the actual ****? It's like a Marilyn Manson  tribute act coupled with an episode of Glow Up......oh look, a bit of ballet. Well, why not eh? Jings - it's the Bucks Fizz reveal. They really are going for it tonight.

Did she forget the rest of her outfit?

@cougar

Don't even joke about that. It'll bankrupt the economy again. They have barely recovered from the last time they won.

Greece has gone all sporty spice but with a skirt made from Bacofoil. A brave choice.

@cougar Ireland’s entry next year… My Lovely Horse.

Theory doing the rounds that we do well with something original eg. Sam Ryder. A slightly crap version of whatever’s in the charts on the other hand…

We joked at home during the semis that it would be the song with the most orifices would win. But then San Marino went out and our theory was shot! 😂

Loving the final, can’t guess a winner.
