Our entry might not have been the best of the evening but no way did it deserve to come third from last. Although for some strange reason that typically seems to follow the trend for some years now with EUvision.
However, forget the song and it’s finishing position, just feel proud how that girl bravely carried on after that nutter somehow got through security and grabbed the mic off her. She had every right to be absolutely terrified but carried on to finish with an incredibly strong performance.
The song came nearly last but the singer certainly came first.
Well done SuRie!

Eurovision usually consists of a load of rubbish songs performed by glitzy artists, some with talent and some purely relying on oddball gimmicks. I doubt Adele, Ed Sherran or any other of our popular artists could win this competition.
A waste of BBC sorry our money showing this rubbish that we will never win, I wish we could donate this show to one of the Sky channels.

Our song was very good and far better than some of the crap on offer.SuRie was a real trooper and held things together really well during the incident,i,d like to see how some of the others would have reacted if it had happened to them.She really deserved to do far better than the insult of points given.I hope she goes on to much bigger and better things than this stupid contest.

EUROVISION stage invader Dr ACactivism has claimed he was “beaten without mercy for ten minutes” after grabbing SuRie’s microphone in a mindless prank on Saturday night.

Good. I'm glad the police on the continent have not turned into uniformed social workers as Mr Plod in the UK seems to have. Sod PACE (1984). It's about time a few more people 'accidentally banged their heads while getting in the back of the transit'.

That’s more likely to deter the idiot from repeating his antics whereas the “good talking to” he would have received from our constabulary might not have had quite the same effect!
Just a shame they didn’t televise the beating as a deterrent to other would be stage invaders!
