Argh I'm trying to mark books, watch and keep up with the thread!

Random drummer and whistling this one, I swear it'll be used on an insurance ad at some point

Friends in Ireland and The Netherlands have just messaged us saying he has a sore throat...

Netherlands so far for me/his voice has gone

Are any countries singing in their own languages?

Ahhh the Bewitched Stage!

Italian women looks like a soap actress.
Looks chrissmassy

Oh, here we go, Italy is.

Austria are singing in French

Why are the subtitle not translated to English on Virgin? Eurovision is ruined!

What a lovely fresh face.

Wouldn't want to sit down in that outfit.

is she wearing sparkly dungarees?

Have any of them sung perfectly in tune yet? I mean, I know it must be a nervy occasion, but they've all been flat in places so far.

anyone care to translate?!

Her outfit is interesting. Looks very uncomfortable

Shocked that France are going to sing in English. That's more shocking than Austria singing in French!

Don't like this at all

We liked the plant.

I liked Israel in the semis

Blackpool front there. Do you think that the autotune thing is being used to ill effect?

Good to see her singing in Italian, I don't believe France are going to sing in English!
