Me too. Watching that is. No wine, I'm afraid, but maybe a gin tonic.

Just twigged that one of the presenters /hosts is the actress that plays Kenzie in NCIS (Los Angeles)
Or am I seeing things?

No, you are right. They said that at the beginning of the first semi final. She was born in the US, but her parents are from Portugal.

Just who at the BBC decides which morons will talk holly hocks inbetween the songs? This years pair will be the first against the wall come the revolution.:angry:

In Germany it has been the same guy for years. He kind of translates everything that is said on stage into German and makes some "funny" comments on the different songs. I mostly ignore him.
A woman at work loves it. She reckons Armenia will do well as will Cyprus, 'because the song is okay and she doesn't wear much'. Ha ha, don't know if they both qualified though.

Cyprus did qualify and I think your colleague is pretty much spot on about her prediction
Armenia did not qualify (I liked the song, though).Two of my personal favourites did not qualify: Greece and Georgia. Instead, all of the boring run-of-the-mill pop-songs came through ... Australia, Sweden, Norway ... but this year, the slightly more rock or even metal oriented songs also seem to be doing quite good: Albania, Hungary, Finland and the Netherlands all qualified.

Netherlands could win if they stopped all that crazy hand waving stuff and concentrated on the song.

My prediction?
It's a tough call BUT
1. Cyprus
2. Hungry
3. Moldova
As the Balkans haven't got their usual suspects to vote for.
Watch out for a beautiful ballad from....I forget where.
UK? Well they hate us so ......third from last.

Someone hasn't got the memo about walk on girls 😱. There is the odd bloke with a flag but not 50-50.

Why do the most popular songs always contain so much "whoa oah oah"? It is actually what bugs me most about the song from Cyprus (beside her flimsy outfit) and the Ukrainian guy. And if I remember correctly, even the German song does it. Sing real words, people!

I must admit that that hip hop song from Slovenia really grew on me. I really did not like it from the video version, but she rocks those live performances. And I love her hair.
Surely we can't be below Slovenia. That is dross.
Ha ha. We posted at the same time, somewhat different opinions.
