It’s the Eurovision Final!

It’s time for the UK to believe in Bonnie as the Eurovision Song Contest plays out for the 58th time live from Malmo in Sweden. How will the UK fare (badly probably)? And which country’s results returner’s use of humour will most backfire spectacularly? We’ve got Scott Mills doing ours so it won’t be too embarrassing. Probably.

I believe there might also be some sort of Fifty 50 Show live commentary thing going on – if it’s happening then all the details will be over there.

Join Graham Norton on BBC1 or Ken Bruce on BBC Radio 2 for an evening of songs and inevitably hilarious voting. Bonnie Tyler is singing for the UK as the 15th song of the night. We only caught the last half an hour of the Thursday semi-final so all we know is that if nothing else the Swedes have put on some excellent tension music.

“Regrettably” I’ll be watching this with chums tonight so won’t be around for it, but I look forward to reading your comments (if you choose to make any!) after. As I said previously, Twitter’s a much better place for this sort of fast moving ephmera these days so it’s no big deal, but if there’s anything you want people to know for posterity then go ahead.

    A vote for Finland is a vote to get Germany to bring out the Raab gun.

    Loved host Petra. Really good show all round I thought.

    I think it’s great that if we take it seriously with a song by an internationally reknowned modern and relevant act, we can beat Germany.
