Don't think we'll bother watching the doco - the less we hear of her awful voice the better.
Looking forward to the show though... I'd like Iceland or Malta to win followed by Sweden and Portugal then maybe Denmark, Norway and a couple of others I can recall... I though Semi 1 was better than Semi 2 - there weren't so many nice ones on Thursday.

Iceland and Malta are my favourites too, and I agree with you Dragon that the first semi-final had much better songs. The only ones I really liked on Thursday were Denmark and Estonia, and Serbia's shoe song because it was so funny  Apparently Norway, Greece and Turkey are the top three favourites but I didn't like any of those! |

Well I`m supporting Iceland (Im ashamed of our song TBH ) Plus in an ironic twist Iceland the country is broke and can least aford to win as they would have to hold the next contest in a bike sheg  Yeah, i wanted the shoe song to be in too |

He said on Jonathan Ross he'd be playing the backing for Jade in her performance I heard that - I read it somewhere earlier today... Aside from the acts for a sec - I'm LOVING Graham Norton's commentary! |

Some of these songs nick bits from other successful songs. Iceland have borrowed bits from Dido and one earlier had a chunk of a Queen track.
