Host broadcaster ORF has launched for the first time interpretive sign language as a viewing option to the Contest. We look behind the scenes to find the story of this new venture for the Eurovision Song Contest, and what success they hope it will bring.
A day trip to the Eurovision Village and a couple of eventful press conferences. Oh, and a semi-final happens too…
ESC Insight’s Ben Robertson gives his take as to why Eurovision 2015 is dominated by the re-emergence of ballads as the lifeblood of the competition.
We have a result from Semi Final 1, so it’s time to go over the results in today’s Insight podcast with Benny Royston (ESC Buzz) and Keith Mills (ESC Kaz) joining Ewan Spence in the Viennese Press Centre.
Well, we have our first ten winners (in no particular order, of course)…and our first six losers. Samantha looks over the news and picks out some statistics and fun facts.
Ewan Spence is once more joined at microphone by Luke Fisher for this year’s ESC Insight Alternative Commentary. It’s the first semi final of Eurovision 2015 – you should start playing the podcast before the show starts, and when the countries sing, the podcast beeps, so pause until the end of the song.
