    Was always gonna be mission impossible to overtake that Swedish jury score, but so delighted for Käärijä to take second place. He had a better song of course, but that's they way it goes.

    Norway should’ve won. I mean putting aside the fact the singer was hotter then the surface of the sun, the song was good.

    No harm in losing that dubious label. This one is an airhead, no character.

    Time RTE cut the crap. Either stage a proper effort at Eurovision or let TV3 or TG4 have a go. Sick of this. It’s like working your arse off to get to college and then not being arsed showing up for lectures.

    hope RTE don’t dare get any of our previous winners back on to rubber stamp tge dhitshow they’re creating these sage. Not fit to tie their shoes.

    I'll never give a live presenter stick again - a seasoned pro like Norton could not do it well - so shows a lot.

    Why didn’t they give Norton a box to stand on, like our man in the park.

    Lads will ye stop cribbing, that's the system that was developed to dampen the geographical voting and it has.

    Sweden won handsomely, she was bookies favourite and had huge momentum. It's no shame on Finland who put on a great show.

    Personally I thought Ukraine might get 1 million public points and Sweden would have to host on their behalf again, but no, they'll get to host in their own right and that's good.

    Bon nuit a tous!

    Happy that Sweden overall. No stand out winner for me.

    Hopefully Sweden equallying our wins will give them the kick up the behind they need to pick a decent song/signer for us.

    who really won ??

    going on Public Vote it should never've been ye turnippes

    163 ahead at half time - only wins by 57 !!

    any kind of maths tells us that there's an odious smell of mendacity over the Juries and whatever shenanigans they were involvede in

    DISGRACE !

    Absolutely.

    Everyone has a favourite song. No use crying fix when your favourite doesn't win.

    As for our record. We don't deserve to be ahead we've been so shi*te for 27 years.

    Sweden are a great Eurovision country. Way ahead of us, we're in the last century.

    Germany was rock. Not everyone likes that style of music. They were very loud.

    The beat of that song is very like Euphoria….. but it’s nowhere near as good a song, bit of a nothing song really

    Euphoria is one of the best winners, don't think I'll have the same fondness for this in ten years time.

    As much as I love Graham, would it not have been more appropriate to have the Ukrainian presenter for the votes with Hannah?

    Scarlah for the UK

    Expected for Sweden, don't think it was deserved. Would have loved Finland or Australia.
