Although - this intro isn't half bad. Who knew that Anke Engelke's French is that good? And Stefan Raab - :giggle:

But how irritating is Graham Norton's voiceover? Just shut up, please.

I've been Tweeting happily throughout and completely forgot about this thread! In short: not enough crazy outfits and platform shoes yet for it to be an average ESC. I really liked Romania just now and France was good too. It also seems like this year is the year of all the pretty singers (Jedward excluded...)

Verdict: lots of pretty boys, bad rapping and not enough wtf outfits. I don't have an overwhelming favourite but in no particular order I liked Ireland, Denmark, France & Romania.
