I wouldn´t be surprised if :pt: is the country in 11th place

Funny story, back in 2014 Portugal didn't qualify for 1 point and the 10th place was San Marino

I might be very slow but on the Swedish news, they said that the internet stream yesterday was hacked for about 2 min, is that true or false?

I read that about the stream from Israels KAN TV.

Re: ESC United - LIVE from Tel Aviv - Semi-Final 2 dress rehearsal and jury show discussion

I've just watched my video recording of the Eurovision Song Contest 2019 First Semi-Final again. Tonight I was able to pay full attention to it, because unlike last night I wasn't composing my blog report on my laptop whilst the songs were being sung. Consequently I was able to spot details I missed last night when my eyes were switching between my TV and laptop. Generally speaking, I enjoyed the show more tonight than last night, but my four groups of countries I wanted / didn't want in the final remain unchanged. I still think Poland, Hungary or Belgium were more deserving of the slot San Marino took, but who's through to the Grand Final and who's out has now been decided, and cannot be changed. All I can do now is look forward to watching the Second Semi-Final live on BBC Four tomorrow evening.

For those who missed it, my report about the First Semi-Final, containing my comments on the songs (as they were being sung live last night) and views on the qualifying / non-qualifying countries after the results were announced, is available here.

Re: ESC United - LIVE from Tel Aviv - Semi-Final 2 dress rehearsal and jury show discussion

Today is Thursday 16 May 2019. The Eurovision Song Contest 2019 Second Semi-Final takes place at the Expo Tel Aviv (International Convention Center), Tel Aviv, Israel tonight, starting at 20:00 BST. The 18 countries taking part tonight, in order of appearance, will be:

Armenia, Ireland, Moldova, Switzerland, Latvia, Romania, Denmark, Sweden, Austria, Croatia, Malta, Lithuania, Russia, Albania, Norway, The Netherlands, North Macedonia, Azerbaijan.

Each of those countries will be able to vote in tonight's semi-final. Three of the six direct finalists Germany, Italy and United Kingdom will also be able to vote in tonight's semi-final.

The ten highest placed countries, by a combination of jury voting and televoting, will proceed to Saturday night's Grand Final. Those ten qualifying countries will be announced in a random order just before the end of tonight's semi-final; the actual results of all 18 countries will only be revealed to the public after Saturday night's Grand Final is all over. Anyway good luck to tonight's 18 semi-finalists, may the best ten qualify to Saturday night's Grand Final.
