I'm just seen the opening for this for a while on RTÉ2 HD. The set looked really nice with all of the colours at the beginning of the intro.

Isn't it due to the fact that the BBC can't guarantee all the texts will get through in time, whereas other broadcasters aren't as bothered because they've not had a competition scandal.

No. It types in the shortcode for you to dial.

I assume app votes aren’t free?

They cost the same as calling the mobile shortcode manually.

The UK's entry just spoke to Rylan Clark on BBC Four.

I would have preferred Mel Giedroyc on main commentary and Rylan interviewing/secondary commentary. I really don't get why Scott Mills keeps getting this gig.
