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.

Douze points for balance

Yes definitely^
Loved it.

OublietteBravo · 09/05/2024 20:25

The dancers look like they’re trying to wipe dog poo off their shoes.

Meredusoleil · 09/05/2024 20:26

This is just lots of loud noise and shouting!

TerryWogansWig · 09/05/2024 20:26

Switzerland - man in a giant hamster wheel? We can do better than that!

I don't enjoy this shouty Avril Lavigne thing from Czechia. But at least she has clothes on.

RedToothBrush · 09/05/2024 20:26

Costume change from rehearsal clips. She's more covered up.

Did not love Switzerland either. So far much preferring the first semi final

Jellykat · 09/05/2024 20:26

Liking this, shes giving me Self Esteem (as in the singer) vibes

AlecTrevelyan006 · 09/05/2024 20:27

i like this - but they should have had a band on stage

CrushingOnRubies · 09/05/2024 20:27

Also liked chezchia

Raahh · 09/05/2024 20:27

I've decided Shakespear's Sister must have been really popular in Eastern Europe in the early 90s. They seem to influence a lot of their looks.

PrettyFlyforaMaiTai · 09/05/2024 20:27

Switzerland was just okay for me, surprised it’s considered a contender.

I’m liking Czechia’s rock chic vibes

CrushingOnRubies · 09/05/2024 20:28

Oooofff think I prefer pink suit to sequined big bird

mathanxiety · 09/05/2024 20:28

Good belting here from Aiko.

She looks like Taylor Swift.

JaneJeffer · 09/05/2024 20:28

I like it, bit Dolores, bit Róisín, bit Czech Grin

OublietteBravo · 09/05/2024 20:28

Vocals so much better than some of the pre-parties

FuzzyCaoraDhubh · 09/05/2024 20:28

@AlecTrevelyan006 I thought the same. It would have been better with a band onstage.

StickyStones · 09/05/2024 20:28

Greece is a total grower but on first listen I didn't like it either.

I think tonight is going to be much stronger than Tuesday.

NameChange30845654 · 09/05/2024 20:28

The dog does not like Czechia

Raahh · 09/05/2024 20:29
Grin
Meredusoleil · 09/05/2024 20:29

Actually really love Petra's dress and would wear it myself. It's classy!

mathanxiety · 09/05/2024 20:30

All the inspiration for My Lovely Horse...

Meredusoleil · 09/05/2024 20:32

Why is that silly lady shrieking out "France" like that ffs?!?

CrushingOnRubies · 09/05/2024 20:32

France not won since the 70s? We've managed better than that

OublietteBravo · 09/05/2024 20:32

I wanted Barbara to win in 2021

Meredusoleil · 09/05/2024 20:33

He's wearing net curtains!
