Yes me. These presenter segments are terrible.

BorisJohnsonsHair · 14/05/2022 20:55

Me! I'm notoriously bad at predicting winners. I like Finland & Switzerland so far

Northernsoullover · 14/05/2022 21:01

Yes me. Italy was quite good buy nothing really floating my boat at the moment.

Yep! Me! I predict Ukraine to win (well the books say it's a cert too tbf 🤣) I'll believe it when I see it that UK does as well as were predicted to do.

I felt VERY old when Graham said it was 25 years since the UK won. I remember that night well!

Ooo here come Ukraine

urrrgh46 · 14/05/2022 21:09

I think it might help if we could understand what they're saying...

StopStartStop · 14/05/2022 21:10

Nothing could persuade me to watch Eurovision, but I hope you all have a great night!

Is it just me or has every male singer sounded the same?

@PinkBuffalo when we've had Eurovision parties we've put the subtitles on so everyone could "sing along" 🤣

I only have a super grumpy cat with me. I'm guessing he's not a pop fan.

Too many ballads this year. I liked Norway though.

ChaiTea20 · 14/05/2022 21:55

I liked Moldova 😂😂 love a bit of crazy on Eurovision!

I'm also watching solo and sober as husband is away and I'm pregnant. Definitely not as fun as watching with company!
