Eurovision Song Contest 2026: Semi-Final 2 LIVE

[rhythmbandit]

Feels very max jury points, 4 in the televote.

 

[dmlaw]

Opera needs to be banned

All right, Timothee.

 

[Sardonicus]

Rather liking France & wouldn't be averse to them winning after a strong bunch of entrants in recent years

 

[Agneeta]

I remember when opera was a Eurovision flop.

BRING BACK THAT ERA

 

[lolly]

Well that's less than the sum of its parts

 

[hyperwoof]

I'm happy to be busy in Dublin eating dinner on Saturday night.

 

[Dark Carnival]

As does FRENCH

Bitch, sit down!

 

[GNL]

Je suis desole mais that was great.

 

[lolly]

Isn't he performing later? Why do we have this now?

 

[dmlaw]

I might petition us to get adverts if being on the BBC means we get Look Mum No Computer TWICE.

 

[Ellie]

Opera needs to be banned

 

[hyperwoof]

Kill Him With Fire

 

[ZenGiraffe]

This is so much worse than I remember it

 

[Debbie Jellinsky]

I'd like to see him in a Triga film

 

[Lucille]

France was technically impressive but a bit devoid of LIFE.

 

[GNL]

I still quite like LOOK MUM NO HOPE.

 

[Dark Carnival]

oh they're talking about us!

 

[Agneeta]

I'm sure he's a nice guy.

 

[Iguana]

Why are they making us watch this twice tonight

 

[Suomi]

wait where is Buttertart

 

[lolly]

Is the BBC labouring under the belief that this song grows on you?

 

[hyperwoof]

He makes me think Reform have a point and I've just been too soft about everything.

 

[Lucille]

Why are we watching this I’m so confused?

 

[Iguana]

All the charisma of a roly poly with custard

 

[Dark Carnival]

France was technically impressive but a bit devoid of LIFE.

You know this is true about France and the French IN GENERAL.

 

[Suomi]

Why are we watching this, like what’s happening in the hall

 

[win_the_game]

Clearly a last minute replacement for whatever interval they had planned with Scott Mills

 

[dmlaw]

Why are we watching this I’m so confused?

It could be worse. It could be the hosts doing funnies.

 

[lolly]

Did we have any breaks this long in the first semi? What did we have then?

 

[Sardonicus]

I can almost see what the UK were going for, but no.

 

[Tisch]

Why are they making us watch this twice tonight

Why are we watching this I’m so confused?

Right? Where's the fun little QUIZ to fill the time? Did they take all our comments in Tuesday too much to heart and cancel all filler bits?

 

[Dark Carnival]

Well i bet HUGO feels stupid NOW!

 

[Soldi]

France feel like they’re trying a bit too hard to win.

 

[GNL]

Clearly a last minute replacement for whatever interval they had planned with Scott Mills

Czechia's contestant breathes a sigh of relief.

 

[rhythmbandit]

Maybe he could reheat his fish pie and get food poisoning again this weekend.

 

[win_the_game]

Did we have any breaks this long in the first semi? What did we have then?

Yes but this just feels like a VERY LONG 3 minutes.

 

[dmlaw]

I can almost see what the UK were going for, but no.

I still like it better than Greece, but I really don’t like Greece.

 

[Dark Carnival]

CRINGE!

 

[lolly]

That outfit is a bit LaLa Ri

 

[Iguana]

Why are we watching this, like what’s happening in the hall

Fire drill. One of those that the important people know about in advance.
