Preparations for a trip to Eurovision should never be skipped over. Take your time to think about the journey, like Jon Jacob does. Expect obsessive tendencies and music from 1982 and 1996 in his first 'Letter From Stockholm'.

It's the first batch of rehearsals, and Ewan Spence is joined by Samantha Ross, John Paul Lucas, and David Elder. Is Russia still winning, will Armenia pull out a surprise, and can David stay alive.

Welcome to Stockholm! The ESC Insight team has arrived in Sweden ahead of the first rehearsals in the Globen. Ewan and the team sit down to look back over the National Final season, and discuss our hopes and dreams for the next two weeks.

It's time for the final Juke Box Jury of the season, and a welcome return to the microphone for both Danny Lynch and Elaine Dove. Ewan Spence hopes to hold it all together as Lithuania, Macedonia, Malta, Australia, and Sweden, all look for hits, will take a maybe, and try to avoid any misses.

Our final weekly news podcast before the ESC Insight team heads to Stockholm, and we've got the loss of an entire country, a surprise preview concert, JESC details, and more. Join Ewan Spence as he rounds up the latest news and views from the Eurovision Song Contest.
