    Finland top for sure, then I had Germany second & Australia third, but I have to also support Croatia for being the only nonsensical entry this year, even if it was only a decent song

    Also I'd dock 12 points every time an act does the heart thing with their hands.

    Finland, Belgium and Israel.

    I actually liked our song, she just needed to belt it out a bit more.

    There’s none I’d vote for this year.
    Unless one of them runs in and slaps Sam Ryder, then they get my vote.

    I'm almost certain the BBC are providing all the ecstacy tablets to keep the competitors going.

    Non taxed, of course.

    Claudia Winkleman declaring that "everyone loves Sam Ryder" sums up why they're both shit.

    Chucking in a Mel C solo track stretches the whole city of music thing a bit thin, weren't Frankie Goes To Hollywood meant to be part of this instead?

    Sam Ryder being born in Bristol has thrown me as that's somewhere I'd consider a proper musical city. Maybe too musical for it's own good.

    Juries are asked to focus their vote on 4 main sets of criteria:

    Vocal capacity of the artist(s)
    Performance on stage
    Composition and originality of the song
    Overall impression of the act

    On all those points Croatia should be winning.

    Rock songs never do well with the juries but it should have some points thrown at it.

    Croatia on 3 and Germany on 0 is a travesty. Abolish the juries.

    This might be the worst Eurovision ever. Zero interest in the voting, it becoming 'a thing' seems to have wrecked it from an unpredictability/enjoyment perspective.

    Italy doing better than I was expecting. This is all going to mean nothing when Croatia get 1500 points from the phone votes anyway

    I'd swap Finland and Italy.

    I don't think Italy will do well enough in the televoting.

    Ukraine will scoop up a lot of the public votes. Maybe even enough to crack that top 4.
