Isn’t the interesting thing about Iceland being you now don’t need an ad break to deal with a long stage set up. A bit more flexibility for the running order! Yes Iceland are losers but I can’t see anyone placing them before an ad break as an example as the audience lose a bit of atmosphere

Come on Physical!!!

Is Dua Lipa’s Physical now going to get the success it deserves? Seems to be creeping up - and it’s easily the best song of the year so should do

I think that second half could be the best hour of Eurovision I’ve ever seen!!!

The first half gets even more dull now! Not going to be worth turning in for the first hour!

Has to be Legends, with a couple of tweaks and a massive dance break. Best song we will have sent in years.

Because it’s terrible!!! He’s killed any leftover interest in the album. What an appalling choice of first two singles!

There’s a decent song hidden somewhere amongst the terrible overdone production of the JT song. Gonna flop for sure.

Too late now though! I’d have won £700 if she’d rightly taken Xmas number 1

It is a bit of a shame as the album is amazing and there are a lot better tracks on the album. Don’t Blame Me is one of the best things she’s ever done

Rita Ora!!!

Great draw for the UK - this is our best chance of a respectable result in years

Agree he's the male Adele and will be huge, Sam Smith is the male Emilie Sande.

Mariah could do it still - all the parties this weekend, then all the schools off and Xmas almost in full swing - she could be number 1 on streams all week.

Does anyone actually expect him (or more likely Saara) to get to number 1? Last years struggled greatly didn't it and I can't see any improvement this year.

Gaga won't have big week one sales nevermind week two!

Come on Justin - £20 when he was 7-1!!!

I honestly think this is it now for XFactor number ones - hopefully next year should see some new battles again!

I honestly think Madge is only going to sell about 30k in week 1 she won't stand a chance if she's in Adeles first two months!

I don't see radio playing it I'm afraid and I think she'd have been better with a 5 minute video. People no longer care for these 12 minute epics from her. I can see Top 40 at best - if applause and Do What You Want didn't trouble the top of the charts this won't. As far the album campaign has gone it's over. I would have said the only decent chance of relaunching it would have been Gypsy performed at the Brits but this ones done. She needs two years off and a stormer off a comeback single.

Not with that performance! She came across as a mess.

I don't get it! How has Miley gone from being someone who struggles to get into the top ten to suddenly having a massive number 1? Seriously I am confused. See You Again and Party in the USA should have been much bigger than they were to be fair - but I would have thought all her fans had gone elsewhere by now!

Won't those numbers be the amount ordered by the record shops in total prior to it bring released?

Watching it like this makes me worried! Ours is so dull compared to the Ukraine and Denmark!

Now 1995 should have been Dear John - One Gift of Love. But you mention Scooch!!! They are responsible for beating Cyndi -who would easily have won for us!
