My TV signal is crap. Is there a way to watch it on iPlayer without it being signed?

First up - my sweepstake Austria. It's all about Edgar.

Top 7 so we can qualify for Europe next season.

Try putting the arial on a book.

 

[Weststander]

Giving it go.

Partly for a love of Ukraine and our foes hate it when Europe unites.

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Would it be inappropriate to hope for some jiggling and lunch boxing in the dancing?

I don't think so.

Don't let me down, Europe.

Hang on.... is this NIN? Or is it a downward spiral? Love it!

Serbia seem to have stopped for a game of Mortal Kombat.

Absolutely stunning performance to win it ! gobsmacked ! this had pathos, empathy, love and energy all the way though through the performance, this will be talked about again and again every year for the next few years or so maybe. Deserved winners !

Serbia. Brilliant. Trent Reznor.

Spain really phoning it in this year

Don't think we'll be in Madrid next year.

We may well be in Stockholm though.
