What a show, what a fortnight, what a season. As the curtain falls on the Italian victory, the ESC Insight team and good good friends gather one last time to talk over the Eurovision Song Contest 2021 on our final daily podcast.

Spoiler… Italy has won the 65th Eurovision Song Contest. And as the credits rolled, Ross Middleton and Ewan Spence bounced around the room to record a podcast. It’s a bit rough and ready, but it’s that joyous feeling we all know that only Eurovision can give.

Before it was cancelled, 41 acts were set to perform at Eurovision 2020. As we approach 2021’s Grand Final, 26 of those acts have returned for a second chance. Erik Nelson finds out what happened to the other fifteen?

Want to know exactly how the Eurovision voting works? What happens if there is a tie? Which country has to use a fake televote? Why is it a mystery how jury scores are calculated? Ben Robertson explains all before the Grand Final.

The day is finally here! It’s time to #OpenUp with Ellie Chalkley and Ross Middleton in ESC Insight’s Alternative Commentary track for the grand final from Rotterdam’s Ahoy Arena. 

There’s so much going on in tonight’s Eurovision Song Contest Grand Final. ESC Insight’s Samantha Ross takes a look at what to watch out for.
