    It might just be the drink but I'm spinning around...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,099 ✭✭✭✭Busi_Girl08


    So the televoters didn't like the UK or Spain - but did like Germany...

    Not much. They only got 10 points.

  • Registered Users Posts: 177 ✭✭Jessme


    Ok Sweden. Fantastic funny entertaining show but this voting system is pure ****e. Has ruined the end of the show.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,099 ✭✭✭✭Busi_Girl08


    So now it gets interesting.

    Aus has it though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,541 ✭✭✭duridian

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,248 ✭✭✭✭BoJack Horseman


    The public hate the brits.... but the juries quite like them


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,038 ✭✭✭Go Harvey Go


    Not much. They only got 10 points.

    Still much more than what the juries gave them, though... ;)

    3rd last in the end - there are two confirmed countries lower (Czech Rep., Germany).
    Back to normal, in other words.

    Make sure you get the Eurovision app from the Windows Store. The live updates on it are brilliant & they working like clockwork.

    Every time that the jury finish their votes from their home countries. The votes are counted automatically. You can also look at the Jury & audience votes for each country that is in tonight final & the same process will apply to the eliminated countries from the semi finals.

    It looks like this will go over time because it will finish after 11:30pm.

    This is an really interesting audience vote. This is unbelievablely mad scoring so far.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,179 ✭✭✭✭sligeach


    Funny how Poland has 7 points from the jury vote and is inside the top 5 on telephone votes. I wonder how that happened? It's a complete joke.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,603 ✭✭✭coffeepls


    Odd odder oddest


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 58,456 ✭✭✭✭ibarelycare


    Austria deserved that IMO.

    That's completely mystified me


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,506 ✭✭✭✭Xenji


    Good to see Austria getting the votes.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 34,499 ✭✭✭✭Caoimhgh1n

    Lot of Poles working around Europe?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,397 ✭✭✭✭Ghost Train


    Poland going to jump way up table, funny if they win it from last place


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 40,061 ✭✭✭✭Harry Palmr


    Germany and the UK should just boycott this - see how they do without the money.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 58,456 ✭✭✭✭ibarelycare


    The public vote means a lot more. Like how many people are on each jury, compared to how many people from each country are voting?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,546 ✭✭✭✭murpho999


    Russia could jump up as public will vote for the show.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 694 ✭✭✭Broken Hearted Road


    What's wrong about this is that they are in the contest at all. Palms must be well greased.
    Someone explained about the European Broadcasting Union. I think they should be allowed to host it if they wish if they win.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,630 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    Our record of winning it most times is safe for another year. :)
