Eurovision Insight Podcast: Visa at the airport? That’ll do nicely Written by on February 10, 2012

If you’re building up a playlist of this year’s 1012 songs, you’ll have six in the list now, and you’d better be ready for a busy weekend as we’re expecting six more this week. It’s an exciting time to be a fan, jumping between live streams, chat rooms, audio feeds, and hashtags on Twitter.

What else? Well just as recording started news came in on the Azerbaijani visa situation for those of us heading Baku for the Contest – looks like most of us will be able to pick up the Visa in the arrivals hall of Heydar Aliyev International  Airport.

All that and more in the weekly podcast!
