The bbc comment saying cutting back then not charging for tickets and paying for previous singers I’m confused . Last year attended with partner to last years eurovison you decide Paid for tickets and was great

That’s why I said earlier in thread that bbc should of done what they done previous shows and charges for tickets

3 hours early don’t you think that’s enough time or should I hire a tent next time and camp outside ?

Oh so this isn’t a forum then? Definition of forum = opinions

So BBC replied to me with pretty much can’t afford to do what done In previous years so let’s save on that and get : Bucks Fizz, Katrina and the waves , Netta , SuRie , on the show. So probably spent more money than before. Judges vote in round 1 thought was wrong thing should of let audience vote / tv audience and I felt no reason why the singers had to sing again. Michael Rice / Holly Tandy was the only real good ones there. Crap tv glad didn’t sit through at media city now hours of waiting for it to come on then no phone to use and more importantly to vote. bbc should be ashamed of themselves Anyone have problems last night queuing up and not getting in due to oversubscribed tickets ?

To be fair thought even if we released a banger of a tune it wouldn’t be in top half due to political crap of voting.

After being in work and now sitting down and listening to songs properly: The only half decent one I think is Michael Rice version of bigger than us however I think it’s very much like Austria 2018 Cesar Sampson like. Storm last year from SuRie was more Eurovision with the lyrics and tone whereas this year is very X factor ish. I even thought Ryan from Ireland last year was great too. On basis of today’s releases Michael Rice will have my vote but that’s as all the others I don’t like. It can be argued well Holly Tandy same lyrics and song but Michael has a much better voice very James Arthur like

I got an unsuccessful too

Lost in Tv Email Successful / unsuccessful ? Anyone had any yet ?

What a load of crap . Glad ain’t going this year.

Thanks.

Has anyone heard anything yet from Lostintv.com about applying for tickets I notice the website is still accepting applications. Cue pandemonium on the day / evening.

Is there any opinion on the response I recieved from BBC which I posted earlier on the thread ?

My response from bbc today is as follows: Dear.. Reference CAS... Thank you for contacting us in relation to the upcoming recording of 'Eurovision: You Decide'. I understand you are unhappy with the date chosen to inform audience members if they have been successful in receiving tickets as you feel it is too short notice. We are sorry to learn of your disappointment about this. We have to plan our productions based on countless practical considerations not least the limited resources we have at our disposal to work within, thus we can't offer everything that every individual might ideally like, and indeed due to on-going budget cuts and cost savings we can't necessarily maintain what has been done in previous years. And the bottom line is that we really can't do so on the basis of how train and hotel operators choose to charge or how employers handle staff leave requests. We do value your feedback about this. All complaints are sent to senior management and I’ve included your points in our overnight report. These reports are among the most widely read sources of feedback in the BBC and ensures that your concerns have been seen by the right people quickly. This helps inform their decisions about current and future content. Thank you once again for getting in touch. Kind regards BBC Complaints Team www.bbc.co.uk/complaints NB This is sent from an outgoing account only which is not monitored.

Last years entry was really good diverse and showed love is love had a great meaning. So unsure what the thread title meaning is for.

Free tickets with 2 - 3 months notice fair enough Free tickets with 7 days notice and having to get time off work from your boss and organise hotel and transport is different. Havent a Problem bbc offering free tickets it’s just the fact that 7 days notice if accepted is bad. It’s okay if you don’t work I guess.

Last year was different enjoyed the experience at Brighton dome loved it this year it seems that it’s gone downhill. There’s a difference between Eurovision. And strictly come dancing .

Last year you weee aloud to take your phone in to vote this year it appears According to lost in tv.com that you have to hand your phones in so those present in audience cannot vote . What another farce.

Let’s be honest who gives a shit about it anymore Eurovision bbc has took an all time low with the lack of planning of event.

I agree Scottyem as long as it looks good on tv so what eh bbc haven’t a clue.

My email complaint to BBC emailed as follows: Hi there I Am writing in reference to this years BBC Eurovision 2019 You Decide competition show. Last year me and my partner travelled from Wales to Brighton for the 2018 completion booked our hotel and train travel and ticket for the event in December 2017 ready for February 2018. This year BBC have left it to less than a month away to reveal 1/ the date and 2/ that it will be free tickets this time and on a ballot basis and those successful will know 7 days in advance if the event which even if they find out sooner than this time will be getting charged full fare train fares and hotel prices as not been able to book in advance and no doubt will be relying on generous managers for time off with such short notice whilst those work for BBC the hosts the production team have no such problem those wanting to go have to go through this farce. I am not happy with this and why when it’s been successful over the last 3 years has BBC took this decision to have less fans in the audience. I Wish the Eurovision team success but unfortunately I am sceptical and wonder if you may just have empty seats on the night. I look forward to hearing from you.

Ballot tickets apply now and you will know 7 days in advance if your successful as I preview to myself it would be free tickets . Bbc is going backwards not forwards. Last year thought the planning was superb plenty of notice and now not much time for people after finding out if successful with tickets can book Hotels and train tickets etc what a disgrace !!

And still no news. I have decided that I will not be going now to Manchester or watching on tv. Eurovision UK You Decide can do one !

HQ1 holds 1000 tickets Brighton dome holds 1,850 tickets So will be half the amount of tickets as Last year I suspect.
