Eurovision 2025 predictions

Surprised the Finnish dominatrix didn’t do better. I enjoyed that.

I'm not sure what you were up to but everyone else was watching Eurovision!

I couldn’t choose just one so I voted for five. UK, Austria, Finland, Italy, and Germany.

The majority of the folks at the party we were having voted for Sweden.

@AndyRM you would’ve been invited if I’d noticed the thread earlier. How did you like the national day celebrations yesterday?

Thank goodness Israel didn't win.

It was lush! We just wondered around the city enjoying the atmosphere. A couple of kids got a picture of me for their "russ" (I think?) challenge and were very apologetic when they said it was to take a picture with a bald man, I just thought it was funny!

Just been to the Historisk museum which was excellent, and I got to see the outside of black metal mecca, Neseblod (formerly Helvete).

Brilliant city and we'll definitely be back for more than just a weekend next time.

Shame the Eurovision entry was a pretty duff effort.

Israel won the popular vote but not the electoral college.

Any else thinking something fishy happened like a certain countries secret service hacking the phone lines?

Given that the song wasn't all that and Israel's popularity isn't at a high at the moment you mean?

How did they win the popular vote.

I think that's the question everyone is asking!

I'm not asking it because I cast 10 votes for Israel so maybe the hatred is just wishful thinking on your part?

 

[Mad Doug Biker]

What was said, I went to bed just after posting this?

It was 7 (I think) posts above your question... It was on the same page!

Presumably the public took the contest at face value and voted for the singer and the song.

Were they that bad?

Although computer analysis of footage from the 1966 world cup shows it wasn't a valid goal and England didn't really win!
