Do other countries take this silly show with the same pinch of salt that Graham Norton/we do? Or is the commentary in other countries deadly serious? Would love to know! Grin

Rylan did hilarious semi final coverage . Norton tried too hard to be amazing

Grew up in Greece. Its serious business. Its talked about for months before the big day, and then weeks after moaning on why they didn't win, microanalysing everything!

The commentary before every song, is info about the artist/song, gossip, fun facts etc some sarcasm and piss taking of the wacky songs

Can't comment on how seriously other countries take it. But by God, Madonna sounds awful.

Came on here to say that too @Frazzledandfedup!

@BummyKnocker it's now the topic of another thread.

The commentators in Denmark play it straight. Im streaming it from the uk because most of the fun is Graham.

Irish presenter is sarcastic and glib
It's not taken to seriously here even when we were winners

The commentators in Denmark play it straight.

I can’t imagine how anyone can take it seriously. Hilarious.
