Do you know why they didn’t just have these acts perform the next year rather than different ones?

I would have loved Russia... but thats not going to happen. It was Little Big and they now live in the US.

I've had to do that twice.

I am now on I player hope sky will be ok for Saturday..

Now MN is playing up

Iceland should have won that year. It was brilliant.

Same, I might just stick to I player on Saturday just in case

Wasn't The Roop one of the fancied ones in 2020?

Not sure. I think because it wouldn't have been fair due to the length of time they could publicise it.

Many countries invited the acts to submit a different song though. The Roop are one who did compete in 2021.

This is more enjoyable than the semi-final.

They were popular but I actually think their 2021 entry was stronger.

Especially as Will Ferrell brought out the comedy film about them winning too. It would have been perfection.

Yay, Discoteque

2020 would have been a classic year. I think 2020, 2021 and 2022 were exceptional in the depth of entries tbh.

Didn't the same acts perform for most countries , but have to send different songs? I know that's what happened with our act.
It was James Newman both years- I think the 2020 song was better.

Happened to me twice too and I'm in Ireland.

Gjon did a Katniss Everdeen!

Have joined the thread late and am mightily entertained by all the comments, thanks!

I find Eurovision quite baffling but it's fun watching with people who are into it.

I also think 2020 would’ve been a good year. I still listen to the playlist.

Yep

I'm in Scotland and just turned mine off at the wall and it seems OK.
Sky Internet too so couldn't even watch iPlayer

I think this sums it up so well...

Switzerland are good hosts.

Isn't that the point. That it is baffling!

I’m in Scotland and on sky fibre internet and ours was fine. So strange how everyone’s boxes froze twice though.
