Given the level of interest in Eurovision. I've found all the old threads, added the year and put them in a new category on the forum: -

I'm guessing Ukraine went out to 30 when war broke out and people thought they wouldn't be taking part.

...no - Ukraine went out to 30 when their 'Vidbir' National Final winner Alina Pash was told she would not be representing Ukraine after it emerged she had visited Russian occupied Crimea after Russia had annexed Crimea in February 2014. As Kalush Orchestra had finished in 2nd place in Vidbir, they were shortly after confirmed to be the artists to represent Ukraine in ESC 2022, but initially no-one fancied their chances, hence the drift out to 30.

Somebody left a comment on my video saying that the Jury votes are made after the second dress rehearsal, which I thought was interesting. So that apsect of the vote will not change whatever the performances this evening.

Yes they voted last night, I'm hearing Sweden are going to do well with both the jury and televoters

That's completely bonkers. If any nation puts in an outstanding and mesmerising performance tonight it won't even count towards the jury votes!

They should've done the outstanding performance last night instead then shouldn't they ;)

But yeah if someone screws up it'll only affect the televote

Under the new voting system, Poland's soft-porn act of 2014 would have scored 12 points (out of a possible 24) instead of none. But I'm sure we all hope there's no filth like that on tonight's show. ;) :D

We'll probably know after the first 3 sets of votes if Ukraine is gonna win. I just hope Putin will be watching with a sick bucket by his side. :D
