Eurovision 2026 Vienna Semi Final 2 - Thursday 14 May 8pm

[RedToothBrush]

After Tuesday's festival of Fire and Ice (with no Will Ferrell irony) and the truly wonderfully socked Australia/Austria Interval act from Cutprice Katherine Ryan and her pal Austrian Smashy I'm sure you all can't wait. Tonight sees a Eurovision song called "Ya Ya Ya". Could it be anymore Eurovision? Get your pleather and odd knee high boots on.

Ten to Qualify for the Final.
The UK CAN vote in this Semi Final (you vote in the semi you appear in).

Voting for the UK is ONLINE ONLY through the ESC website or app. You need to make a card payment - 15p per vote.

Non participating countries (Hello Ireland) can vote as part the Rest of The World from midnight before the Semi-Final until the show starts when voting closes temporary before reopening after the acts have all performed.

There is a limit of 10 votes per person.

Definitely.

They look like a couple who have had a big row and attacked each other's wardrobes with scissors.

Forgettable song.

I liked it though.

The argument was about the washing of the bedding

I'm surprised they let that song title through.

More Pleather.

Love how anything goes at Eurovision apart from emotional support chickens. Have to draw the line somewhere

oh, this is the controversial one.

Ropes, and a strange person in white.

The washing has reappeared on the person at the back!

Romania are often a bit off the wall.

Judging by the reaction in the stadium, this dross will get through.

DS thinks she looks like Evil Claudia Winkleman.

judging from Tuesday and this evening so far, most of the songs seem quite dark and serious. No one seems to be having much fun.

Glowing skipping ropes. And lots of leather.

Awful.

Ha ha

It's very Romanian.

I like the idea- because I like nuts stuff like this. But maybe with dfferent lyrics

Running behind, just as it was about to start "wait a minute mummy!!" from DD so I had to pause it! On Bulgaria. Enjoyed that, nice and bonkers.

Also enjoyed the Wasted Love pisstake.

I'm not a fan, but I think this will go through.

I prefer Eurovision female empowerment to a woman in leather crawling and begging me to love her.

I think I'm in that camp. Its better than a lot of other entries (See Azerbaijan for an example).

Is that Tracey off Corrie?

Did the other violin one get through on Tuesday ?

She does look like Tracey Barlow !
If Tracey did Eurovision.
