though of course as soon as I say this they hit the next couple of fences hard and pitch down on landing. |

Do countries change their votes when they see which way it is going. Seemed random to start with now mainly top3 get top 3?

Like Austria to win tonight's semi @ 100-30 with Spoilsports.
It's a great song - very Bond themey, and Russell Brand sings it very well. I managed to get a bit on at 19 for the whole thing after dawdling meant I missed 24. Now 11 and the big mover from tonight. Curses to my slow fingers. |

No - all votes are locked in before any are announced. |

At one point I actually blew kisses to the TV when Conchita was on.
I've also landed a few darts on Norway, Spain and Russia for top ten so it's been a very fun night.

UK out to about 40s on betty. Pleased to know Im not alone on this one..
I laid it for top ten as soon as Molly made it clear she'd left her singing boots at home. Almost forgot this one - so much chirping at chez AndrewT tonight. Won a monkey all in - and all because the girl I'm seeing's mother got ill today so our night in a pub watching this was cancelled. |

I know I said this last year but the clues are there so early on - everything's up on Youtube in March. Even the Dutch song (which I was so against for ages) I found myself singing along to by the end.

This was a winner - Netherlands won the other semi. Austria won their semi very easily - they got either 12 or 10 from all but 4 countries. Oddly, they got their lowest score from Germany. |

Some massive discreps between jury votes and phone votes in some countries. Had it been phone voting early Austria would have won by a huge margin.
