The way this was supposed to be UK's big comeback and they lowkey tanked worse than last time... Like yeah he got some points but the absolute 0 from public lowkey worse than 24th place last year.

the fact that dizzy is the only song I actually remember and have in my head right now

the results would be quiet different with netherlands no?

Well.. Belgium definitely wouldn't have given 12 points to Israel in the televote that's for sure, Europapa is already a monster hit here

[Shawn]

I wonder who Netherlands fans transferred their votes to.

 

I think Croatia was the top recipient. 

[Funhouse]

Latvia somehow not being a borderline qualifier and somehow not being a grand final flop

Guys, Im so excited Nemo won, i sent my vote from Brazil, it was the first time I watched the whole thing

 

I have a question

How come Olly didnt get any televotes? I dont understand the system really well, can someone explain?

points are awarded to top 10 countries by overall votes as

12

10

8

7

6

5

4

3

2

1

 

so he got 0 because uk wasn't in top 10 anywhere

[abrantino]

tbh I would kinda understand if Malta decides to withdraw, last place is ridiculous

even Ms. Emotional.Breathless.Real did better than that

[Dante]

western europe gave most points to israel while eastern did to croatia and ukraine

I wonder if the BBC will change how they pick contestants again after the 0 points. TaP was great and we left them way too early.

The UK needs to send people who can sing their songs live. Whenever they send a questionable vocalist Europe says

 

[Eat The Acid]

So happy Israel flopped and didn't even come top 3  

 

They thought they were getting an Ukraine moment and they didn't even get top 3. GURL Bye!

That’s what they get for the Bashar controversy

I don't think Olly was the problem. The problem was him in combination with the staging. There was way too much movement for him, making him be out of breath constantly. It had the same effect as Roxen. 

 

An act's staging is extremely important, but the vocals are also very important for a lot of people voting. I think a healthy balance should have been found here and it wasn't.

UKRAINE 4 POINTS BEHIND CROATIA IN SEMI FAT EBU WHEN I ******* CATCH YOU FOR GOOD!!!!!!!!

[Funhouse]

Western European televote was hijacked by the far right I fear... the discourse about Israel's participation was poisoned by the worst politicians you can imagine 

 

[PopKills]

Switzerland is the only deserving winner yup!! So happy the delulus on this forums fume

israel really screwed croatia over

with normal voting theyd have easily won

 

[glitch]

I say this every year but the UK should send someone singing in Welsh to shake things up. I know the BBC would never go for it but it would definitely get people's attention

I rewatched it and there was definitely no booing when the camera went to Olly in the greenroom, just when the results were revealed and when they moved onto Israel.

ahhhh ok that makes more sense then. i could've sworn i heard it before they announced the zero so that's why i was confused

Poland not even #11 

Finland did way better in semi than today, lowkey thought they were #10 after today's results  

[Funhouse]

Am I supposed to believe IRELAND of all places gave 10 televote points to Israel...

 

[JennyWayne]

Thinking bout how Croatia would've won if Bosnia, Montenegro and North Macedonia were still competing
