I'm not sure if ITV has dumped it as this is the semi-final. 12 Kids are going to sing to compete for the UK in the final of the eurovision.
Don't forget, BBC THREE showed the semi-final of the "Normal" Eurovision, so ITV may be doing the same by showing their version of the semi-final.
Interesting though, I wonder who is going to present MOM that morning as HW and SM are presenting eurovision, unless they do both?

I think this weekend's MOM is being pre-recorded. I guess as Stepehn and Holly will be busy with this show. That may not be correct but from what I remember somebody mentioned it on this forum.

This is not the semi final. This is the selection round to see who will represent the UK.
In the semi final of the 'proper' contest, the countries who took part were those who scored low the previous year along with a raft of new countries. As far as I can remember the UK selection was screened on BBC1 as usual.
ITV backed out of hosting the 'Junior' event earlier this year when they realised the money from the EBU would nowhere near cover the cost of the event. It has been moved to ITV2 due to the poor ratings it received on ITV1 last time.
Unlike its older sister, I suspect the JESC won’t last very long. At least, not in the UK.

Well that will inspire confidence in whoever is representing Britain the JESC then, the fact that next to nobody will be watching them.
Let's give JESC to five (who can contract it out to Endermol or whoever) and have done with it. They clearly survive airing Party In The Park for hours on end, sure they can cope with JESC for two hours once a year.
