Eurovision 2019

Why am I thinking ‘Game For A Laugh’ watching the presenters?

KAN have now geo blocked their live stream. Even their YT stream for Audio Description and Sign Language are geo blocked.

#MLT A lively, catchy song to start with, well sung and good staging. I liked the way the background added to the fun. The dancers added to the impact of the song.

Great to have you with us for the contest tonight.

You too Jon.

#ALB I liked quite this from the moment I first saw the preview video, and wanted this to qualify. Excellent ethninc Balkan song, and the lady's outfit completed the look.

I could see this Czech Republic song doing well with the public vote but not the juries. Very catchy.

#CZE One I'd rather not have qualified Tuesday evening. This starts a bit slow, but has a really catchy chorus. I like the background which changes colour, and the rectangles that move about at times. It's great to see the word "Friend" in many languages on the big screen at the end.

Grr - Graham says how the Big 5 is the big five because they finance Eurovison. It's not it's the EBU. Falsehood like that fulfell the Europe hates us despite us funding the contest myths.

See if you have nothing positive to say about that contest, can you please leave the thread until at least midnight? I'm sorry but I actually want to hear what people have to say about the songs and the countries and different technical aspects of the contest.

If that's not clear enough, I'm not sure what is!

I’m not sure it’s Graham’s job to explain the complexities of how the EBU/Eurovision work.

You're a happy little bunny aren't you?
