As is traditional, supporting the bonkers and taking mick out of the crazy costumes. Begin...
well done, was just about to start this
and taking mick out of the crazy costumes
i think croatia already has that one won

Aha hahaha. Strong Freddie Mercury vibes.
I'm in.
Graham Norton leading an early charge as least camply dressed presenter.
I'm a few minutes behind and watching on iPlayer. The sign language woman is going for it already and got her groove on! If she keeps jigging all night I'm going to be well impressed.
Can’t wait for this!
Austria look like they should've been introduced by Antoine de Caunes.
Derivate dance tripe. Next!
We were at the semi and Austria were *bouncing*. But that felt a bit flat.
Oh, wait, I've got a better one. That dance music, they're ravin'
Portugal were good. 👍
Portugal reminds me of The Babushka from Addams Family.
OK, Soldier Boy is pretty strong. Borrow a guitarist or two from My Chemical Romance and that could be an outstanding track.
Switzerland started well, vocally poor. And those troosers!
My signer has gone for a lie down😕
Come on Voyager! Not Australian, but been a fan of the band for years 👍
Poe Poe Poe!
Come on Voyager!
Exactly. Waiting for them to warm it up a bit.
Serbia weird again
Loving Serbia!
Null points for Serbia I reckon.
Not sure about Serbia…it’s making me scared.

“outstanding in his field!”
i had a chuckle at that one!
Serbia. Errr….?
Serbia looked like what might happen if HR Geiger was deaf.
That was almost really good.
Serbia. Errr….?
THIS ENDS NOW!
Good tune. Matrix wake up scene is a fun idea.
oooo, whats under there
Don’t try and sneak a look.
Another one you can actually dance to. Keep it coming…
Cyprus dull. Will still get 12 from Greece.
So, why are the Aussies in Eurovision?
Dunno. Or Israel.
Well, given the French entry is sung by a Canadian…
I think we missed an opportunity to have the Wedding Present do our entry this year.
Edit: Israel is to do with them being in the European broadcast area
Cyprus sounds very like something else but I can't quite pin it down 🙁
Because they've got big gay communities who make a good audience?
Cyprus is good.
So, why are the Aussies in Eurovision?
Inclusion.
So, why are the Aussies in Eurovision?
Something to do with the Australian Broadcasting Corp being in the Euro thing club that runs eurovision.
If they win, the contest has to be run in a euro country.
Aw poor Spain, her dress melted.
She's got a good voice but this is weary.
Anyone know why the Spanish singer is wearing a used quality street wrapper and borrowed some red wool net curtains from her nan?
Edit, thanks for the dress explanation @Cougar
At least last year the Spanish costume was points-worthy
That Spanish one was too good for Eurovision… I’ll have a whole album of that please.
It was a bit ‘My Lovely Horse’, wasn’t it?
Anyway, red wine or beer for refreshments.
Did he say “bacon on a slab”?
Edit: ooooft, nails.
She may be a favourite to win but is Ms Sweden Wolverine's sister?
Cheers Sir Tel 🥂
That Swedish song was no turnip.
I've heard Sweden's song before. Paradise? Firelights? Something.
Serbia is the best so far!
From now on I’m going to pronounce Tattoo as ‘Tattoo-hoo-hoo’.
Also, Graham is being absolutely savage tonight and I love it.
I’m in Liverpool, I live in the Docklands…..been an amazing week!!
We are in an Irish bar away from the arena though….lack of forward planning so didn’t get any tickets. It’s absolutely bouncing everywhere though! Been great for the city.
Anyway, my money is on Sweden. I actually really like the song.
The Albanians are something else. Did I like that?
I think I want to hear Albania in the original Klingon.
That was almost good.
Mm, Rhayader pump track looks good!
Ah, the family Von Krapp.
That cracked me up, well played.
Anyway, my money is on Sweden. I actually really like the song.
It ticks all the Eurovision boxes, without doing much for me. Weirdly, I liked the French entry best so far.
I hope the dancers trying to kill themselves on the stairs behind the Italian singer aren't a comment on his singing.
French christmas tree as well for me so far, but it feels it still has to warm up. The crowd are fantastic though
Italy was good!
Ms Estonia's cuff belts bother me
Cunk on Eurovision
It ticks all the Eurovision boxes, without doing much for me. Weirdly, I liked the French entry best so far.
Likewise. But it’s Finland I’m looking forward to most. Here we go…
Finland has had the biggest cheer here in Liverpool!
ah yes, more like it
how into this are the crowd 🙂
Yes!
Oh, Estonia is -good-
Good voice, good song. Eurovision entrants are so often one or the other rather than both.
‘Tell me you’re from Finland without telling me you’re from Finland’…
Finland have stolen my dance moves.
