Petra was probably the best host of the last decade. Not keen on Måns, hope he will only do green room.

I didn't think much of Petra at ESC 2013, but did you not see her earlier this year at Eurovision's Greatest Hits with Graham?! She was amazing!! So funny :lol:

You have to remember in Malmo she did it all on her own, so much pressure - she will have been too focussed on not messing up - must have been totally nerve wracking. But when she was with Graham she was brilliant, a co-host is definitely what's needed and she will have that with Mans :) Plus it's just generally much better to have two hosts, as it makes the show a lot more relaxed when there's two personalities on stage.

The fact that the BBC selected her to be co-host of Greatest Hits shows her talents as a presenter. She managed to hold the UK audience, and that's a difficult thing to do as most Brits find Eurovision hosts are cringeworthy and embarrassing to watch.

Sure she's a bit older than most Eurovision female hosts, but give me a woman with a bit of personality and fun in them over some dumb blonde with personality as flat as a pancake any day!

Mans brings the good looks and musical/Eurovision background. Petra brings the professionalism and charm. I think this will be the best hosting ever in Eurovision!

While I would agree this could be really good, we have no idea how they will be together, and if the scripting is poor then it won't matter. Let's wait and see until we call them the best hosts ever.

I would also disagree about Malmo. She instantly made herself the best ESC presenter of all time with what she did in 2013.

You're right, but from what I've seen of Mans he has the charisma to do it... I don't think he's going to be the cardboard cut-out type host just there for the looks. Obvs we have to wait and see but I don't really have any doubt that they will manage to pull it off.

You will be disappointed, as he'll basically run the show alongside Petra, he's not gonna do what Eric Saade did in 2013.

Age shouldn't even be an argument. People can be funny and good presenters at any age. But I do get that you like Petra, and so do I. ;)
(Plus she doesn't look old)

I will say just four words to this : Anke Engelke & Stefan Raab

Sorry but Petra is waaaaaaaaaaaaay below their level of professionalism.

He has experienced hosting more than once. I am positive about him.
