And so it begins.
Here’s the first podcast for this year’s Eurovision Song Contest. It is unofficial, and if you want to get the official Eurovision line, then head over to www.eurovision.tv , but I hope you’ll subscribe to this podcast for your regular hit of Eurovision throughout May, leading up to the Grand Final on May 29th.
In this episode, I take a quick overview of what the Eurovision Song Contest is all about – for fans of the contest this is old ground, but it’s a perfect primer if you want to know what it’s all about.
There’ll be more short guides to Eurovision this week, and next Monday will see the first “Juke Box Jury” of Eurovision as I invite fans and journalists to judge every single song in the contest. After that, live from the floor of Oslo, and anything could happen then!
