    Considering RTE would be managing the production, it would be bleak.

    In fairness to RTE, anytime they produced the ESC they were all top-class productions. Remember, its 20 years since we won and technology has come a long way since then.

    Totally unfair, they have hosted some great Eurovisions in the past and brought us Riverdance.

    Mans act & the interval act this year have been fantastic this year.

    The Swedes are great at presenting it. They should do it every year; they're great fun.

    Voting system hasn't changed. It's just that they will announce all the jury votes first and then top them all up with the tele-voting.

    50% of the votes come from juries? That's too much - surely the majority should be from the viewers?
