Eurovision Song Contest 2010

ESC drama

Spain will sing their song again after Denmark, because of "technical difficulties". From what I could see, it looked like someone jumped on stage and disturbed their performance.

The person who jumped on stage when Spain was performing, was Jimmy Jump. He's been arrested.



edit to add quote from wiki:

During the 2010 Eurovision Song Contest in Norway Jimmy Jump invaded the stage during the Spanish performance and took part in the choreography. He was subsequently chased off the stage by security at the venue and immediately escorted away from the concert area and taken to Sandvika police station and got arrested. Svante Stockselius, head of the song contests, allowed Spain to perform again due to the incident after the final performance

Not holding out any hope for Ireland.

Probably listens to too much Van Halen.

Here's the Jimmy Jump incident:

The singing is over.

That means the show is fairly watchable from here on in (with the audio on).

(I choose my words carefully of course).

OK. Honest now. Who is trying that dance right now. lol

Tell us.

lol i thought that was quite fun to watch, cheesy but fun.

If Ukraine had managed to duplicate their semi-final performance, I'm sure that they'd win. However, I don't think that tonight's performance matched the semi-final performance, so I'm not sure anymore... Anyway, I still hold Ukraine as my favorite

Seeing the votes so far, it doesn't look good for Ukraine. Greece is doing well. They're not in the lead, but they might have a chance

Germany is way ahead now. It looks like they're virtually untouchable and will win... That was a surprise. I'd never guess that they'd get that many points.

After half of the votes are in, these are the top 3 so far:


Germany - 134 points
Turkey - 96 points
Belgium - 93 points


19 countries left to vote

I don't think anything can prevent Germany from winning now. At the moment, this is the top 3:


Germany - 196 points
Belgium - 128 points
Denmark - 120 points


I'm not sure how many countries are left to vote

With only 4 countries left to vote, this is the top 3:


Germany - 234 points
Turkey - 160 points
Belgium - 141 points

Germany won!

Spoiler alert? Did you expect that the winner would not get announced in this thread?

The 'Winner':



We English win by default really though...until a country decides to sing their song in their native language

Someone once told me...

"if you don’t have nothing good to say, say nothing at all"

And that’s where my comments on the Eurovision song contest ends!

Ireland wasnt far behind England, we were crap.

I enjoyed Graham Norton tho, he was very funny.
