2022 Eurovision Grand Final - Take A Video, Watch It SloMo!

[SHARPIE]

Omg what is UK doing in first? I am having a breakdown

 

[Hanna]

France still with 0 points? BOOO JUDGES (like in skating )

 

[airgelaal]

Votes from jury are so... random...

 

[millyskate]

I would have expected Estonia to get more jury points.

 

[airgelaal]

Thanks for the weapons from Ukraine to UK

We in love with Boris Johnson

 

[my little pony]

clearly my thumb is not on the pulse of what is popular

 

[Hanna]

Wheeee go UK, after so many years with 0 points, I am really happy for you!

 

[cocotaffy]

Graham Norton is so into it, he can't believe it. Well I am happy for UK loved it but booooooo for France

 

[miffy]

I’m so excited about the UK I’ve only just noticed Moldova only have 2 points so far

 

[marbri]

Good to keep in mind the juries voted on the dress rehearsal last night, public vote is on what we just saw.

 

[my little pony]

Poland is really the best friend we all need

 

[marbri]

@allezfred has already forgotten who Greece gave their 12 points to while she was talking...

 

[airgelaal]

Moldova and Poland!

I was just thinking that. It could be like Norway (Keiino - Spirit in the Sky) in 2019 when they had tech issues but weren’t allowed to sing again, and the jury gave them next to nothing but they won the public vote!

That might explain why Greece does so well. I felt she was pretty insecure today.

I think so. She was great in the semi and I read she was as good yesterday. Today not so much.

 

[millyskate]

I kind of liked Sweden but I'm surprised the judges did too.

 

[RoseRed]

I kind of liked Sweden but I'm surprised the judges did too.

Don't they always like Sweden?

 

[marbri]

Probably doesn't hurt that Greece is also half Norwegian so getting some Nordic love as well

 

[my little pony]

im so confused by some of these results

sam seems lovely

 

[cocotaffy]

Well done France for that vote

 

[my little pony]

what's wrong with the phone reception?

 

[marbri]

I assume @allezfred is solely responsible for Ireland giving 12 pts to Spain

 

[SHARPIE]

France, OMG FRANCE gave us douze points

 

[miffy]

France, OMG FRANCE gave us douze points

Macron will be raging

 

[allezfred]

This is the UK’s best points total ever.

 

[miffy]

This is the UK’s best points total ever.

You could probably add up all the points we’ve got in the last 15 years, multiply it by 5 etc and we’d still be ahead

 

[Hanna]

I honestly have no idea what will happen. I suspect Ukraine will win the televote but whether they can win the total or not will depend on how popular UK, Spain and Sweden were among the public. I'd imagine quite popular though! So the winner could very well be one of the current top3.

I find it odd that it’s just the Eastern European countries with the bad reception, possible Russian hacking?

I have read articles in the last 24 hours about that very thing
