I agree. Don't get the Netta appeal.

See you on Saturday

9/10. Denmark a rather twee surprise.

I don't want him to be impartial.

I like Graham .

I'll be sticking with Marty on RTE2. Much Jack Daniels will be needed.

I love the fact that he's never impartial! He says what everyone is thinking.

If I never see Netta again it will be too soon.

See you all on Saturday.

Why should Graham be impartial?

Phew, at least the UK is through to the final again. We always manage to make it - we clearly have the winning formula, no matter what our choice to represent us: cheque, credit card, bank transfer or postal order

See you all for gin on Sat. 8pm prompt.

Keep me company as DH is away.

7/10 here not bad
Am sad that Romania and her gimp twins aren't through though
See you all on Saturday!

So- see you all on Saturday.

I will once again try- and fail- to pace my alcohol intake. I would like to be awake for the scores this year.

I think I managed it last year. (I failed the year before)

See y'all Saturday! Oooh, I'm so looking forward to it!

Collectively we predicted 7/10 for the first semi and 8/10 for the second semi. So 15/20 or 75% success rate.

(Personally I predicted 7/10 for the first semi and 9/10 for the second semi, so 16/20 or 80% success rate)

I just find Graham painfully unfunny

Nothing beats the MN Eurovision commentary

I just find Graham painfully unfunny

I really like him in Eurovision. To be fair, he takes it along a different track from Terry - he makes whimsical and considered comments - sometimes still quite cutting - rather than just instantly going straight for the jugular!

Am sad that Romania and her gimp twins aren't through though

I think the gimp quota has be filled just fine this year!

@SirNilsOlav
Serhat...

Minty off Eastenders?
Greg Wallace meets Lou Bega's hat?
Alan Cumming's eyes on Ben Kingsley's head?

Yes in the absence of Romania and the withdrawal of Ukraine at least we still have Hater S+M that's why mums go to Iceland.
I wouldn't mind them winning just to see their total non-reaction.

Despite me thinking there was only room for one na na in the comp I was also pleased for Malta - the lass looked like she was going to cry when it was down to the last two.

I enjoyed Tuesday's show much more, thought tonight was a bit dull in comparison. I was looking forward to seeing the favourites perform, but wasn't that impressed tbh.

I agree Poland should have got through, they were robbed.

My favourites from each round were Australia on Tues and Norway tonight.

DS (7) has been asking Alexa to play Serhat and singing na na na lots, so I have placed a small each way bet on Serhat at 200-1, just in case the rest of Europe agrees with him.

@rageagainstthevendingmachine

I briefly had her convinced it was Stanley Tucci but she's realised it's not.

If she ever realises, I'll update but I'm not holding out hope 😂

Don Johnson/Serhat?

Long shot...
