I’m a forty-something (okay, approaching fifty-something) from Sydney, Australia who works in radio. My passions include: radio, travel, genealogy, music, art, theatre, food, wine, and technology. I love many things Swedish, and I am learning Swedish. Click on the photo above to read more.
Hopefully next year for me. In the meantime, I'm getting my head around a trip to South Africa in the first couple of weeks of July. Very excited for different reasons.
Hi James The interval act for me was a real highlight. I was in Town Hall Square in Copenhagen when they won and it is a real once in a lifetime experience. The crowd were in a great mood from seeing the show and then to win really sent them over the top.
I forgot to mention one fab thing about the Eurovision Party we attended was chatting for a while about the Swedish barman. We chatted about how fantastic Petra Mede was, and he mentioned in particular the lyrics for the interval act.

Getting up at 5.00am this morning was difficult but well worth it. Petra Mede was such a great choice to host - warm, funny, clever. The interval act she performed was a classic with so many clever one-liners.
We're currently watching semi-final two (so much better than semi-final one!) via the eurovision website because we're out and about tonight. We may well repeat for the final. I really like the sbs coverage, but like you, loathe the waiting and avoiding all potential sources of spoilers.
