Eurovision Semi Final 2 - No Spoilers

Welcome back! Time for more Eurovision…

I bring good news; after last year’s absence the key change is back! Whoop! (See if you can spot it)

Tonight has folk, fairytales and well No Limits. No. No. No. No. No. No. Limits. Theres lots of circles

This year is a bit different to previous years. The BIG FIVE plus the HOST all perform like the other contestants at all three semi final performance as part of the main show to try and level the playing field. France, Spain and Italy will perform in Semi 2.

Don’t miss: Bookies 2nd Fav Switzerland, Spain, jury tempter Italy and roof-raiser Netherlands. There’s a few other half decent songs tonight too to please Eurovision fans. It WILL be better than Tuesday!

Out of the other 16 entries, only 10 will go through to the final. The semi-final is TELEVOTE ONLY.

After the conclusion of Semi 2, the qualifying finalists will be drawn into THREE lots. Four will draw ‘First Half’, Five will draw ‘Second Half’ and the remainer will be ‘Producers Choice’ and can be placed anywhere in the show. Sweden has already drawn their order for the final and will perform 1st. The Big Five also have already been drawn - UK and Germany got first half. France got second half. Italy and Spain got producers choice. The producers will put out the running order for the Final in the early hours of Friday morning (it’s usually before 1am UK time). The Final is TELEVOTE AND JURY VOTE.

dont like:

Malta
Greece
Czechia
Latvia
San Marino (especially....)

And not keen on Norway neither.
But I am a terribly unreliable predictor of what will get votes.

Estonia looks like all the dads from DH's pub skittles team dressed up as the Blues Brothers.

RedToothBrush · 09/05/2024 21:40

Joost. I just want to give him a hug.

I was working on Tuesday. Not fair.

CrushingOnRubies · 09/05/2024 21:41

Oh god now this is flat

ilovesooty · 09/05/2024 21:42

Takes me back to my holiday in Rhodes.

It's karaoke. Were you expecting different?

CrushingOnRubies · 09/05/2024 21:44

I was expecting a bit of karaoke but not this karaoke

Raahh · 09/05/2024 21:44

Ok- so I can remember every word of this. Probably because it was just an Abba knock off.

sonjadog · 09/05/2024 21:44

That yellow dress really is dreadful

Raahh · 09/05/2024 21:44

I am Rylan. I am .

The dog has scarpered.

FuzzyCaoraDhubh · 09/05/2024 21:44

Abba-esque yes.

OublietteBravo · 09/05/2024 21:45

This is definitely better than Johnny Logan singing Euphoria in semi 1

eileandubh · 09/05/2024 21:46

This would be my absolute nightmare, having to sing along on live tv to songs I don't remember ever hearing ever.

WhotheHellisEdgar · 09/05/2024 21:46

Just remembered my Eurovision UN 😁

I thought this singalong was going to be a mash up of more songs.
Not sure time presenters actually know these songs.

I laugh in the face of Johnny Logan!

Give me this any day of the week.

Just what I was thinking!

FuzzyCaoraDhubh · 09/05/2024 21:46

Ah no. Don't say that about Johnny.
You're right though 😄

TerryWogansWig · 09/05/2024 21:48

they look well!

WhotheHellisEdgar · 09/05/2024 21:48

Me too!

sonjadog · 09/05/2024 21:50

The Swedes do a good Euro-pop

sunnydaytoday0 · 09/05/2024 21:50

The Belgian entry had 'PEACE' written in big letters his arm/shoulder.

CaraDeLaVagine · 09/05/2024 21:50

I've been watching Fiona Harvey and Piers Morgan.
But I popped in for the last one and Bontempi Orphan smashed it!
Douze points to the Netherlands.

OublietteBravo · 09/05/2024 21:50

I don’t think that’s a good recap clip for Joost.
