    In all fairness though considering the clowns carrying out attacks around Europe that the security would be tighter than a ducks arse around the venue. Portugal will get a bollocking for that.

    That's nice but very boring for a Eurovision.

    Apparently the stage-invader said 'This is to the UK Media - we need our freedom' or something along the lines.

    If they vote again on Brexit

    In fairness I don't think she needs a 2nd chance- she was super and that performance will only bring her up the rankings.

    But if it brings on "Brexit- the recount", then yep, "Adjudicators, I demand this Brit sings again :p"!!!!:p

    Apparently the stage invader said “nazis of Uk we want free movement” or something.

    I actually feel sorrier for the country singing after the UK to be honest. Distracting for the audience

    So when she sings the song again, they might get to hear what the stage invader says!!

    Thought the German singer sounded very like Sting but with a Script vibe to the song. Thought it was a bit boring though.aan

    This Albanian lad has some set of pipes.

    To be honest, I missed it first time around but after watching that - fair play to her, she did very well to recover and continue.


    And if she wins, Graham will host next year which would be brilliant.

    I agree. Estonia is the only real standout for me. UK was good and has the x-factor now but I still have it second.
