🇺🇦 Seeing Timur Miroshnychenko on UK television is one of those surreal goosebump moments. A shoe in to host #Eurovision 2023, surely.

There has to be a better way to sell tickets to the world's biggest music competition than having 400,000 people in one big queue, battling against bots. The experiences people are sharing is so disheartening. #Eurovision

I had a fantastic day yesterday working behind the scenes for @sundayforsammy in Newcastle! Highlight? Meeting Jimmy Nail of course. Let’s ignore the fact there’s an attempt at hiding the height difference

🇨🇭 With 365 points, Nemo has just recorded the 2nd highest jury score since the split voting system was introduced in 2016. They're only 17 points behind Salvador Sobral's record in 2017. #Eurovision

🇮🇹 Well, Turin, my visit was fleeting. I’m incredibly proud of the work I’ve done for @EuroTripPodcast this week and overwhelmed by the response to my documentary. Sadly I had my equipment stolen and then @roblilley1 tested positive for Covid. Anyway, #Eurovision , see you soon!

🇮🇪 Despite missing the flag parade, both Marina Satti for Greece and Nemo for Switzerland performed in the dress rehearsal this afternoon. The only artist (so far) to skip their rehearsal is Bambie Thug for Ireland. #Eurovision
