Welcome to the Eurovision Song Contest 2014.

:00:27.:00:37.

These are scenes from last year. When Denmark triumphed.

:00:38.:00:48.

That brings us to Copenhagen, home of Eurovision tonight. I think

:00:49.:00:57.

you'll be pleased. It's a great show, brilliantly staged.

:00:58.:01:17.

GRAHAM NORTON: Here's the lady who brought us here. Emmelie De Forest.

:01:18.:01:23.

She's performing this again later. All you need to know is she still

:01:24.:01:25.

hasn't bought any shoes! The winner is Denmark.

:01:26.:01:35.

Thank you so much. That is Emily making her way from

:01:36.:01:54.

Malmo to Copenhagen. Just a few miles over the bridge. In this VT

:01:55.:01:59.

they're taking all sorts of modes of transport - bikes, boats,

:02:00.:02:07.

helicopters. I, myself, had an electric car.

:02:08.:02:14.

So that is the site of Eurovision this year. The pre-publicity told us

:02:15.:02:22.

they'd transformed an old dockyard into a Eurovision village. Well!

:02:23.:02:29.

Certainly, the building we're in has been transformed... Inside. Outside,

:02:30.:02:35.

yeah, it's pretty clear it was a dockyard. Actually, it is phenomenal

:02:36.:02:40.

what they've done. They were still building boats in this building in

:02:41.:02:52.

1996. The whole set design is based around the prow of a ship. Oh, do

:02:53.:02:59.

have a care. What they're doing is passing

:03:00.:03:03.

anything pretty on the way to the massive eyesore that is the

:03:04.:03:09.

Eurovision island. That windfarm out there produces 4% of the electricity

:03:10.:03:14.

for Copenhagen, I'll have you know. Have you got pens? I'd hate Taufiq

:03:15.:03:24.

miss any of this. -- I'd hate you to miss any of this.

:03:25.:03:28.

This film is almost in real time. This is actually how long it takes

:03:29.:03:40.

to get out to Eurovision island. Water is featured in the set

:03:41.:03:44.

tonight, fire is featured. Of course, there's wind machines, as

:03:45.:03:56.

per normal. Is that the Queen? 11,000 people crammed into this old

:03:57.:04:05.

boat yard going nuts tonight. They have surpassed themselves. At first

:04:06.:04:08.

glance, you will think the set is one of the simpler ones, but as the

:04:09.:04:12.

though goes on, wow, it does all sorts of extraordinary things. It's

:04:13.:04:22.

really stunning. The music you're listening to in that short film was

:04:23.:04:27.

the winning song in Eurovision 1963, held in London.

:04:28.:04:39.

There we are. Those are the little boxes at the back. Where is the

:04:40.:04:43.

Union Jack. There it is. Whoa! In a minute, lots of indoor

:04:44.:05:05.

fireworks. There you go. Europe, are you ready to join us?

:05:06.:05:20.

That's the theme of tonight's show - join us. Here we go.

:05:21.:05:34.

The hosts of tonight's show isn't long enough. They've started it with

:05:35.:05:38.

all 26 entrants walking onto the stage.

:05:39.:05:42.

You only takes, half an hour, something like that. It doesn't take

:05:43.:05:47.

that long, but still it does feel slightly unnecessary. That big empty

:05:48.:05:50.

space in front of the auditorium there, that is the Green Room. The

:05:51.:05:55.

acts are in the middle of the auditorium. It was obviously

:05:56.:05:58.

designed for polite Danish people, who see a barrier and don't go over

:05:59.:06:02.

it. Whereas I imagine a lot of drunk Brits will be climbing in there

:06:03.:06:08.

later going, "Molly!" Plenty of time for Molly to get ready. She doesn't

:06:09.:06:14.

perform until 26th. She is the last song in the competition.

:06:15.:06:25.

Song number one, Ukraine. Song number two Belarus. Song number

:06:26.:06:58.

three, Azerbaijan. If you're wondering whether performing last is

:06:59.:07:02.

good or bad, the stats are thus: The last person to win performing last

:07:03.:07:09.

was Yugoslavia in 1989. But in recent years, people have come

:07:10.:07:16.

second. Dana in 1970, she performed last. So it's not a good thing nor a

:07:17.:07:22.

bad thing, it's just a thing. In rehearsals Molly is doing a great

:07:23.:07:29.

job. You'll be very pleased when you see her performance this evening.

:07:30.:07:41.

Poland. Song number 11, Austria. Here she

:07:42.:08:02.

is, the unofficial queen of Eurovision, Conchita Wurst. If

:08:03.:08:08.

tabloid inches and media attention were votes, she would be the clear

:08:09.:08:10.

winner. Song number 14, France. Song number

:08:11.:08:33.

15, Russia. Mixed response in the hall. It was very loud booing when

:08:34.:08:37.

Russia got through the semifinal. But that's just here in Denmark.

:08:38.:08:41.

That won't be reflected in the voting, I imagine.

:08:42.:08:50.

Song number 19, Spain. Ruth Lorenzo ex-X Factor lady. Song number 20,

:08:51.:09:10.

Switzerland. Song number 21, Hungary. Song number

:09:11.:09:39.

22, Malta. Song number 23, Denmark. That's a catchy song. Song number

:09:40.:09:55.

25, San Marino. And song number 26, United Kingdom. Molly! Children of

:09:56.:10:01.

the Universe. I think she's been finding the whole experience quite

:10:02.:10:05.

overwhelming. But she loved last night. She's in great form.

:10:06.:10:13.

Now the actor plays Kasper the spin doctor, Lise is a TV presenter, and

:10:14.:10:24.

Nikolaj is a Danish pianist and journalist. Good evening Europe!

:10:25.:10:31.

Wow! CHEERING

:10:32.:10:48.

Spectacular. It's our pleasure to welcome you to the Grand Final of

:10:49.:10:52.

the Eurovision Song Contest 2014 live from Copenhagen.

:10:53.:10:55.

The cleaner won't be pleased. This is a joke. You're right, that

:10:56.:11:14.

was Chinese. It's my way of saying this show celebrates music from all

:11:15.:11:18.

the Europe, but it's a show with a worldwide audience, including China.

:11:19.:11:26.

45 countries in total. More than 180 million people are watching this

:11:27.:11:29.

right now. That is a lot of people. Yes, it is. We found out if everyone

:11:30.:11:37.

watching right now - Europeans, Asians, Australians... If we all

:11:38.:11:43.

lined up, outside, holding hands... Then no-one would be watching this

:11:44.:11:47.

show. Thank you for staying where you are. Tonight 26 countries will

:11:48.:11:52.

perform live on this stage. Remember, Europe, you decide who

:11:53.:11:55.

should win. You can vote by calling... This is the annoying bit

:11:56.:12:00.

where I speak over someone speaking English. I apologise but I am

:12:01.:12:06.

obliged to do it. The only way UK viewers can vote is by calling the

:12:07.:12:10.

number on screen now. However lines won't open until all 26 acts have

:12:11.:12:14.

performed. Don't call before then, as your vote won't count and you may

:12:15.:12:22.

still be charged. For full terms and conditions visit

:12:23.:12:25.

bbc.co.uk/Eurovision. Viewers' votes are combined 50/50 with the scores

:12:26.:12:29.

of national juries. Those juries watched and voted on last night's

:12:30.:12:34.

dress rehearsal. We're not told how they're voted until the results are

:12:35.:12:37.

announced later tonight. The UK jurors this year are music industry

:12:38.:12:43.

professionals and they are Carrie Grant, Gus Gowland, Laura Wright,

:12:44.:12:48.

Candice McKenzie, Steve Allen and we thank all of them. They're talking

:12:49.:12:51.

about a mobile app there, you can get the app, but the voting part of

:12:52.:12:55.

it doesn't work for British viewers. The only way can you vote tonight is

:12:56.:13:07.

to call. That Chinese thing by the way, if you're not finding it funny

:13:08.:13:10.

now, you won't be finding it funny way, if you're not finding it funny

:13:11.:13:18.

it. Let the Eurovision Song Contest 2014 begin!

:13:19.:13:22.

CHEERING Here we go.

:13:23.:13:25.

Song number one, I should warn you that many of the songs contain

:13:26.:13:29.

flashing images and strobe effects. Each country was asked to put

:13:30.:13:38.

together a short film, making the country's flag in an unusual way,

:13:39.:13:43.

featuring land escapes. Maybe they invented the post-it in Ukraine. I'm

:13:44.:13:46.

not sure. This doesn't look safe to me. Her name is Mariya Yaremchuk and

:13:47.:14:02.

the song is Tick-Tock. It makes you tense watching this. She's a lady in

:14:03.:14:07.

a long gown, a wind machine and fast-moving hamster wheel. Good

:14:08.:14:08.

luck. # When the light of the night

:14:09.:14:38.

fell on us we knew # Now cover me

:14:39.:14:50.

I'll buy us time, time # Tick-tock

:14:51.:15:00.

Can you hear me go tick-tock? # My heart is like a clock

:15:01.:15:16.

I'm steady like a rock # Don't stop, kiss

:15:17.:15:20.

and kiss me till I drop # You wind and wind it

:15:37.:15:39.

with your love # Go tick-tock

:15:40.:15:53.

without the glimpse of you # I keep losing my pace

:15:54.:15:59.

In this endless race # Wait for me, I'll buy us time

:16:00.:16:03.

Oh oh oh-oh-oh oh oh # Tick-tock

:16:04.:16:23.

Can you hear me go tick-tock? # My heart is like a clock

:17:42.:17:45.

the lyrics to this are. It's called Cheesecake. The man singing it is

:17:46.:17:50.

called Teo. He represents Belarus. Imagine a sort of cut-price Justin

:17:51.:17:58.

Timberlake, if you will. Not even any circus skills to cheer this up.

:17:59.:18:22.

# When you called me "my sweet cheesecake"

two has ever won the Eurovision Song Contest. After witnessing that, I

:21:19.:21:23.

probably didn't need to explain that. The first shout out is for Jan

:21:24.:21:28.

Key, she's here with Terry. A shout out to everyone in North Wales and

:21:29.:21:34.

Dartmouth, especially the junior golfers at Clays Golf Club. This

:21:35.:21:41.

lady is Dilara Kasimova. She's representing Azerbaijan with a song

:21:42.:21:45.

called Start A Fire. Some people took these little films quite

:21:46.:21:49.

seriously. We did. Wait until you see the UK's, it's fabulous. This

:21:50.:21:58.

one, I don't understand it. This performance features a apees.

:21:59.:21:59.

Why? Because it's Eurovision. # People gathering by

:22:00.:22:22.

to breathe the morning air # But no-one sees the bitter cold

:22:23.:22:28.

and shivering empty hands # A schoolgirl running by

:22:29.:22:41.

and trying to beat the bell # People dropping

:22:42.:22:47.

coins in wishing wells # But no-one cares for dreams

:22:48.:22:54.

that don't fit into our world # A soldier in the hands of

a forgotten mess # Digging out the burning bullets

:23:05.:23:45.

in his chest rollerblading and brilliant tram

:23:46.:25:27.

pleening. Now, song number four Iceland. On paper this should be

:25:28.:25:31.

wildly annoying. They're singing a song about no prejudice and

:25:32.:25:39.

rockabilly style. But it is wildly infectious. The group is called

:25:40.:25:50.

Pollaponk. The song is No Prejudice. Copenhagen has fall anyone love with

:25:51.:25:53.

these guys, because they wear their colours all the time, either in

:25:54.:26:00.

onesies, dressing gowns, suits, anoraks and tonight, they may do

:26:01.:26:02.

very well. # La-la la-la-la-la

:26:03.:26:11.

La-la-la # Life is way too short

:26:12.:26:12.

for short-sightedness # Cos everyb-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-body

looks the same on the inside # And it p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-pays

to wear a smile # Don't discriminate

:26:27.:26:33.

Tolerance is bliss # But you don't need

to call me a freak # Cos everyb-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-body

to call me a freak APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

:28:30.:28:54.

GRAHAM NORTON: Come on UK, that was fun. I feel you resisting. Next to

:28:55.:29:04.

one of their neighbours, Norway. This man is Carl Espen. When he's

:29:05.:29:09.

not doing this he's a salesman selling doors and windows. He

:29:10.:29:12.

actually makes them, as he's doing here. He has no experience as a

:29:13.:29:19.

singer. Yet his cousin thought he's a lovely voice, so she wrote this

:29:20.:29:26.

song for him. It's certainly unusual. He does look a bit

:29:27.:29:30.

preoccupied throughout the performance. He looks like he's

:29:31.:29:34.

thinking, "Did I leave the gas on? Should I phone and get them to

:29:35.:29:36.

check? It's called Silent Storm. # I'm here to use my heart

:29:37.:29:55.

and my hands # Somehow the bruises

:29:56.:30:29.

changed my plans? # And there's a silent storm

:30:30.:30:36.

inside me # And there's a silent storm

:30:37.:30:41.

inside me # I'm here to use my heart

:30:42.:30:59.

and my hands # And there's a silent storm

:31:00.:31:47.

inside me # I hope that someone's

:31:48.:32:04.

gonna find me APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

:32:05.:32:44.

GRAHAM NORTON: Bless him. I think he's delighted that's over.

:32:45.:32:51.

As are we. Song number six, Romania. These people look familiar, well

:32:52.:33:07.

they're Paul Seling I think this has a sinister feel. Where are

:33:08.:33:12.

the police while these two are setting up exlozives by a lake in

:33:13.:33:17.

quite a built-up area? Now you won't see any editing here. It's

:33:18.:33:22.

incredible what they've done. There are the fireworks. If you took a

:33:23.:33:26.

picture in the water, it would look exactly like that. Yeah! This

:33:27.:33:36.

features a circular piano, why? Because it's Eurovision.

:33:37.:33:43.

# And I want to believe this is magical

:33:44.:33:56.

# And I want to believe it's incredible

:33:57.:34:15.

# We could be dancing with stars in the night

:34:16.:34:17.

# And you got that feeling So beautiful

:34:18.:34:59.

# I told you before that it's magical

:35:00.:35:09.

# But you just can't deny it's incredible

:35:10.:35:21.

# If I only knew all the things you could tell me

:35:22.:35:24.

# It's a miracle... in the night

:35:25.:36:10.

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING Here's a fact for you, that is the highest note

:36:11.:36:49.

you'll hear this evening. By the way, if you think oh, I quite like

:36:50.:36:54.

that grand piano, I imagine you can find it in a skip outside the

:36:55.:37:01.

stadium later. Andre, Tom and Vera are cheering on the ewe vain. Dan,

:37:02.:37:07.

Luke, Nicky, Jade and Dave are in York and Tom and David in

:37:08.:37:10.

Shoreditch. Moving on to Armenia now. This is

:37:11.:37:20.

Aram. That's -- this is Aram Mp3. That's his actual name. He is a

:37:21.:37:25.

comedian as well as a singer. He was the bookies' favourite. But he has

:37:26.:37:30.

slipped to fourth place. The thinking is he's said some quite

:37:31.:37:36.

rude things about Conchita. He didn't do a great performance in the

:37:37.:37:41.

semifinal last night, let's see what he's like tonight.

:37:42.:37:54.

# Though you are scared and you're hurt

:37:55.:38:35.

# And why do dreams make people scream?

:38:36.:38:49.

# Yeah, what if it's only one kiss?

:38:50.:40:25.

Where are you? I thought I looked tired and sweaty. Wow. Still it was

:40:26.:40:56.

very well staged. And Armenia again consistently top five. So, you never

:40:57.:41:00.

know. He may be our winner this evening. Next up it's Montenegro and

:41:01.:41:10.

RiskyKidd is a 19-year-old rapper born and raised in London. Now

whole thing shakes. There is some fantastic tram Poe leaning --

Am I down or am I up? I can't frown cos I am in luck

:52:33.:52:55.

OK. Here we go. It's song number 11 for Austria. The song, Rise Like A

:52:56.:53:02.

Phoenix. The performer, Conchita Wurst. She's the Eurovision darling.

:53:03.:53:11.

She's all anybody is talking about. She's the creation of Tom, who

:53:12.:53:15.

describes it as a drag act but takes it very seriously. The song is

:53:16.:53:17.

beautifully staged. I hope it very seriously. The song is

:53:18.:53:24.

should. It deserves to. Austria haven't won

:53:25.:53:27.

should. It deserves to. Austria years. Listen to that crowd.

love her already. Good luck.

fool, but that ovation, for that performance, I know it's camp and

:53:45.:56:45.

silly, but it seems like in that moment, you're witnessing something

:56:46.:56:49.

that matters just a little bit. Fantastic job, Conchita Wurst. I

:56:50.:56:53.

hope, I hope she does well tonight. If it was a popular vote, I think

:56:54.:56:57.

she'd win. Juries have half the say. And maybe they won't react in such

:56:58.:57:05.

an emotional way. Next up it's the first of the big five. Now these are

:57:06.:57:10.

countries that don't do the semifinals because they make a

:57:11.:57:13.

greater financial contribution to the contest, Germany is joined by

:57:14.:57:17.

Italy, Spain, France and the UK and the host nation, Denmark didn't go

:57:18.:57:23.

to the semifinals either. Elaiza is a trio of ladies singing Is It

:57:24.:57:27.

Right. I would suggest no. But it's up to

:57:28.:57:29.

you ( # She tries to feel

:57:30.:57:35.

She can't feel anything # So when it's all

:57:36.:58:55.

not what you thought follow Conchita would have a tough

:58:56.:00:46.

job, but they were fodder thrown out there.

:00:47.:00:50.

Ladies and gentleman, that's exactly what you have to decide. Thank you

:00:51.:00:55.

very much to Elaiza from Germany and to the first 12 songs that we've

:00:56.:00:58.

heard this evening. Now if you want to know what people from all over

:00:59.:01:02.

Europe think about the performances so far, go to your favourite social

:01:03.:01:07.

media and use the official #Eurovision. If you don't know what

:01:08.:01:16.

a hash tag is... Don't patronise me. I'm 5 #1, I'm not dead.

:01:17.:01:20.

-- I'm 51, I'm not dead. This book is packed with amazing

:01:21.:01:30.

records from the This isn't Eurovision. The highest note, I

:01:31.:01:33.

don't know why he said that. In the book of records, you can find all

:01:34.:01:37.

kinds of impressive records. For example, the highest age. 12 points

:01:38.:01:46.

go to Norway. The highest number of points. And the record for the

:01:47.:01:52.

highest hat. But one record is higher than all the others. That's

:01:53.:02:00.

the highest note. Over the years, there have been some very impressive

:02:01.:02:02.

high notes. But to find the highest note ever,

:02:03.:02:14.

we have to go back to 1996. The Croatian singer surprised

:02:15.:02:29.

everyone when she turned her love ballad into a sudden screamavaganza.

:02:30.:02:37.

An extraordinary high note that sends Croatia into the all-time

:02:38.:02:42.

records of Eurovision with her note B flat 5.

:02:43.:02:50.

Oops. Luckily I'm drinking wine out of a paper cup. That was Croatia's

:02:51.:03:02.

highest placing, in '9 of. -- in 96. Here they are. Europe make some

:03:03.:03:10.

noise. Pilou is an actor. He's not a television presenter or a comedian.

:03:11.:03:12.

This will become clear. Lots of Brits in the audience

:03:13.:03:23.

tonight. I encountered many on the way in. They seemed merry earlier.

:03:24.:03:27.

This used to be a shipyard. Back then it was full of hot lights,

:03:28.:03:32.

dripping fire and beautiful men with big, sweaty muscles. Looking at all

:03:33.:03:41.

of you hard-core Eurovision fans down here, I see nothing's changed.

:03:42.:03:48.

It's wonderful. Ba-dum. So let's continue with song number 13. Give

:03:49.:03:52.

it up for the amazing Sanna from Sweden. The neighbouring Sweden.

:03:53.:03:57.

This is Sanna Nielsen. She is the bookies' favourite.

:03:58.:04:03.

It's 40 years since ABBA triumphed in Brighton. So it would be fitting

:04:04.:04:09.

if Sweden were to win tonight and they could host the Diamond Jubilee

:04:10.:04:13.

next year. The song is called Undo and it is really terrific. She's a

:04:14.:04:20.

big star in Sweden and yet, she's attempted to represent her country

:04:21.:04:24.

seven times. Finally, she's made it and to punish her, they've made her

:04:25.:04:34.

blow up lie -- lilos. Beautiful staging, a very catchy song. This

:04:35.:04:37.

may well Take the Crown tonight. singing along. They all know. It

:04:38.:07:55.

it's been a big hit. If that does win tonight, I don't think anyone

:07:56.:08:00.

could argue. It is a great song and well performed. Many of the songs

:08:01.:08:04.

coming up contain flashing images and strobe effects, if that affects

:08:05.:08:08.

you. Also, if you think you might have missed Molly, don't worry,

:08:09.:08:13.

she's song 26. She's the last one to perform tonight. Quick shout out to

robbo and Ben. It's the second of the big five, France. The group is

:08:24.:08:27.

called Twin Twin. The song is called Moustache. It tells the moving story

:08:28.:08:32.

of a man who has everything, but can't grow a moustache. Again, I

:08:33.:08:36.

think this picture might be faked. Yeah. By the way, two of the

:08:37.:08:40.

performers of the three are real-life twins. See if you can spot

it up. They're representing Russia with a song called Shine. Now the

:12:02.:12:06.

most interesting thing about this is how they get them on stage. Their

:12:07.:12:14.

hair is interlocked. It also features an enormous see-saw, which

:12:15.:12:18.

looks a bit like a military vehicle to my eye. And a man has come from

:12:19.:12:25.

Russia to essentially pull some curtains. Expect a mixed response to

this song. # Telling all the world

flute out of her sight. It's with her at all times.

Manchester. Carl dressed as a Thunderbird, interesting. This is

:31:54.:31:59.

Sebalter, with a song called Hunter Of Stars. He's studied the violin

:32:00.:32:05.

since he was six. He's a business lawyer, very keen on cycling. He's

:32:06.:32:09.

all sorts of shades of fun and he can do this.

:32:10.:32:14.

This song I should warn you features whistling.

:32:15.:32:28.

# You have an option Only one choice

:32:29.:32:42.

# Sipping my drink Looking around

:32:43.:32:44.

# There is so much beauty Oh, yes we can

:32:45.:32:47.

# But yet self-confidence is a fragile concept

:32:48.:32:50.

# And there it comes That unwanted guest

:32:51.:33:00.

# Want me to go Want me to go

:33:01.:33:07.

# Cos you think I'm lying Cos you think I'm lying

:33:08.:33:10.

# Cos tonight I cannot go hunting for stars, no no

:33:11.:33:15.

# Twisting the truth then leaving us alone

:33:16.:33:25.

# In this mad and moody world Society without love

:33:26.:33:31.

# And I state my heart has been well-trained

:33:32.:33:33.

# I am the hunter You are the prey

:33:34.:33:39.

# Want me to go Want me to go

:33:40.:33:45.

# Cos you think I'm lying Cos you think I'm lying

:33:46.:33:48.

# Cos tonight I cannot go hunting for stars

:33:49.:33:57.

# It's raining outside It's raining outside

:33:58.:34:03.

# Roar like a lion Roar like a lion

:34:04.:34:08.

# But I fear your judgement I fear your judgement

:34:09.:34:10.

# But I fear your judgement I fear your judgement

:34:11.:34:15.

# Want me to go Want me to go

:34:16.:34:40.

# Cos you think I'm lying Cos you think I'm lying

:34:41.:34:44.

# Cos tonight I cannot go hunting for stars, no no

:34:45.:34:50.

# Cos you think I'm lying Cos you think I'm lying

:34:51.:34:54.

# Cos tonight I cannot go hunting for stars, no no

:34:55.:35:03.

# Cos you think I'm lying Cos you think I'm lying

# Cos tonight I cannot go hunting for stars, no no. #

you Thank you Europe. . That was Sebalter. A few more songs till

:35:13.:35:36.

Molly flies the flag for the United Kingdom. Some very good songs

:35:37.:35:39.

between now and her. This is one of them. His name is Andras

:35:40.:35:42.

Kallay-Saunders. It's called Running. He was actually born and

:35:43.:35:47.

grew newspaper New York. His mother was an Hungarian model. His father

:35:48.:35:53.

was an American soul singer, who worked with - I've forgotten his

:35:54.:35:57.

name! Erm...... Oh, that guy who did erm...... What a perfect day.

:35:58.:36:05.

Erm...... Oh! Lou Reid, that's his name! He worked with him. He may

:36:06.:36:09.

think this is a lame post card, because it is. But it's also

:36:10.:36:15.

pointing out that the inventor of the Rubix cube was Hungarian. That I

:36:16.:36:16.

remembered. # She calls for help

:36:17.:36:23.

but no-one seems to care # She keeps on running

:36:24.:37:09.

Running, running # She keeps on running

:37:10.:37:12.

Running, running # I can see the angels

:37:13.:37:15.

standing by your side # Leave me alone

:37:16.:37:22.

But no-one seems to care # She calls for help

:37:23.:38:06.

but no-one seems to care # She keeps on running

:38:07.:38:10.

Running, running # She keeps on running

:38:11.:38:27.

Running, running # She keeps on running

:38:28.:38:35.

Running, running # I can see the angels

:38:36.:38:43.

standing by your side # She keeps on running

:38:44.:38:48.

Running, running # Oh, oh, oh

:38:49.:39:07.

It'll be all right. # Now this doesn't look too promising.

:39:08.:39:40.

It's Malta. But it's a sweet post card and a very good song. The band

:39:41.:39:46.

is called Firelight. Do you see what they're doing? They're lighting the

:39:47.:39:52.

fires. The tune is Coming Home. The band only formed in 2013. It's

:39:53.:39:59.

Mumford Sons with a whiff of Gary Barlow. Not that that's a bad thing.

:40:00.:40:07.

There's some UK interest here. The lead singer, Richard and Michelle is

:40:08.:40:11.

his sister, she's on the piano, their mother is from Yorkshire.

:40:12.:40:15.

Surely some cousins cheering Firelight on.

:40:16.:40:27.

# Freedom of life I will express my soul

:40:28.:40:33.

# Look me in the eye and electrify my bones

:40:34.:40:40.

# I ain't gonna leave until you know my name

:40:41.:40:48.

# Stepping out of the shell Now don't you step in my way

:40:49.:40:57.

# Build another wall and watch it crumble by your side

:40:58.:41:02.

# I'm not holding back No, I ain't wasting time

:41:03.:41:26.

# If you want me near then you must come for the ride

:41:27.:41:33.

# If your sky will fall I'll shelter you from the rain

:41:34.:41:40.

# There's not a cloud in the sky that can come in the way

:41:41.:41:47.

# Oh, roaming through fields I'm trying to find this new land

:41:48.:41:56.

# It's only cos I'm here I'm finding gold in my hands

:41:57.:42:03.

# Trying to build up the words to say what you mean to me

:42:04.:42:22.

# Gonna open your eyes and let you know what I mean

:42:23.:42:32.

# Gonna take on this journey Feel the light getting warm

# Freedom of life I will express my soul

# I'm on the road coming home Yeah, I'm coming home

comeptary box. It sounds like the crowd here in Copenhagen enjoyed it

:43:03.:43:26.

as well. I think Malta could do very well tonight. Expect 11,000 people

:43:27.:43:32.

to be cheering as loudly as they can for this man, Basim is his name.

:43:33.:43:37.

He's representing the host nation of Denmark. The song is called Cliche

:43:38.:43:43.

Love Song and it's actually rather good. It's a jolly, happy pop song,

:43:44.:43:51.

sort of in the vain of Bruno Mars. This post card is quite good as

:43:52.:43:55.

well. Not as good as ours. Wait till you see ours. It's so good. Though

:43:56.:43:57.

it is a terrible waste of furniture. The Danes don't want to win, but

:43:58.:44:08.

this song could do it. The commentary box will be rocking.

:44:09.:44:17.

# Scooba-dooba-dop-dop di-di-dai I love you, yeah

:44:18.:44:24.

# I met this lady Lady

:44:25.:44:27.

# But she was crazy Crazy

:44:28.:44:31.

# And lately Lately

:44:32.:44:35.

# Yeah, boom boom boom When she walked the room

:44:36.:44:45.

# Even girls they whistle (WHISTLING)

:44:46.:44:46.

# It feels like Scooba-dooba-dop-dop di-di-dai

:44:47.:44:57.

# Baby I'ma do whatever you like I love you

:44:58.:45:09.

# Whoa-oh-oh Hey

:45:10.:45:16.

# Whoa-oh-oh Another cliche, baby

:45:17.:45:20.

# Like Katy Perry So sexy

:45:21.:45:22.

# Taste like cherry Cherry

:45:23.:45:27.

# Oh, my God, let's go Seven

:45:28.:45:38.

# Yeah, boom boom boom When she walked the room

:45:39.:45:40.

# Even girls they whistle (WHISTLING)

:45:41.:45:42.

# It feels like Scooba-dooba-dop-dop di-di-dai

:45:43.:45:52.

# Baby I'ma do whatever you like I love you

:45:53.:46:05.

# I gotta break through To you

:46:06.:46:22.

# It feels like Scooba-dooba-dop-dop di-di-dai

:46:23.:46:37.

# Scooba-dooba-dop-dop di-di-dai I love you

# Baby I'ma do whatever you like I love you

:46:51.:46:58.

# Baby I'ma do whatever you like I love you

representing Denmark. If that was to win, it wouldn't be the worse thing

:47:07.:47:27.

in the world. Maybe they might be marked down for white socks, that's

:47:28.:47:33.

my fear. Up next is a song that has crept up on everyone. It's the

:47:34.:47:38.

Netherlands. They're called The Common Linnets, which as you know is

:47:39.:47:43.

a type of small Finch. And the song is Calm After The Storm. It's a

:47:44.:47:48.

country and western song and really no-one was paying attention to it.

:47:49.:47:52.

In the semifinal it's took everyone by surprise. Now it's crept up in

:47:53.:47:58.

the bookies' ratings. Now it's fourth or fifth in the ratings. The

:47:59.:48:03.

staging is very simple, but very effective.

:48:04.:48:08.

Looking at the stage, I think there's a problem with Denmark's

:48:09.:48:14.

flag. Sounds like you like song number 23, ladies and gentleman.

:48:15.:48:15.

What number 23, ladies and gentleman.

:48:16.:48:21.

This is Lise. My driver today said she's very woody. I thought, does

:48:22.:48:26.

she smell a bit mutty. She meant wooden.

:48:27.:48:31.

# Ooh, after all that we've been through

:48:32.:50:26.

like the euro fans have embraced it as well. It's a real alternative for

:50:27.:51:51.

Eurovision, I'm not sure it's right for the competition, but a beautiful

:51:52.:51:56.

song. This next lady is the penultimate performer. That's

:51:57.:51:58.

particularly exciting tonight because up next is Molly,

:51:59.:52:03.

representing the UK. However right now it's Valentina Monetta and she,

:52:04.:52:07.

no matter what happens tonight is already a winner. She's come for the

:52:08.:52:12.

last three years, representing San Marino in the semifinals and has

:52:13.:52:16.

failed to get through. This year, miraculously - and I mean that -

:52:17.:52:20.

she's made it to the Grand Final. San Marino, a tiny country, only

:52:21.:52:25.

31,000 people. They've clubbed together, bought her some rouched

:52:26.:52:28.

curtains and we wish her luck. # Maybe we can not live in peace

:52:29.:52:49.

cos we're under a spell # Every soul heals

:52:50.:53:05.

and will find a way # With our emotion

:53:06.:53:38.

transformed into gold # I know there's nothing stronger

:53:39.:53:54.

and more real # To challenge the fear

:53:55.:54:06.

of the endless night # To find our bodies

:54:07.:54:28.

transformed into gold # I know there's nothing stronger

:54:29.:54:45.

and more real # Maybe it's a journey

:54:46.:54:56.

in the darkest night # Maybe we can make it

:54:57.:55:08.

to the morning light # Maybe this is it, this is real

:55:09.:55:11.

and I feel this is right again and I will die happy. They

:55:12.:55:49.

thought what it needs is a wedding marquee. This is song 26. There she

:55:50.:55:54.

is, Molly. Very hands on. Putting her back into it. This is how you

:55:55.:55:57.

make a post card. Look at the scale of this, ladies and gentleman. It's

:55:58.:56:02.

epic. On stage with Molly tonight, she'll have backing vocals, Sharleen

:56:03.:56:08.

Linton, Lincoln Jean-Marie, Toni Beaumont, Katie Holmes and the

:56:09.:56:11.

drummer is Joe Yoshida. Molly met him in college. Big shout out to all

:56:12.:56:14.

their families who are watching tonight. Also a big thanks to all

:56:15.:56:23.

the volunteers who came out on this day to help Molly create our post

:56:24.:56:27.

card. Looks good, right? The song is called Children of the Universe and

:56:28.:56:31.

I'm here to tell you, people like it. This could be our year.

:56:32.:56:34.

Fingers crossed for Molly. # Power to the people

:56:35.:56:41.

Oh, hey, hey # Power to the people

:56:42.:56:44.

Oh, oh, oh, oh # I've been tired of this thinking

:56:45.:56:46.

Hey # So I've drowned it out

:56:47.:56:49.

with drinking Oh oh-oh-oh # Standing beside you I've a feeling

:56:50.:56:53.

that I'll never walk alone # Children of the universe

:56:54.:57:29.

Don't you know # Yeah, dancing on the edge of time

:57:30.:57:32.

and it's ours to own # Cos we are children

:57:33.:57:38.

of the universe # Power to the people

:57:39.:57:45.

Oh, hey, hey # Power to the people

:57:46.:57:47.

Oh, oh, oh, oh # Power to the people

:57:48.:57:50.

Oh, hey, hey # You know what we want

:57:51.:57:52.

and we've gotta get it now # Something's stirring

:57:53.:58:04.

in the silence Hey, hey # And it reeks of passive violence

:58:05.:58:06.

Oh # Hold on tight

:58:07.:58:08.

This opportunity we'll take # Put an end to all this suffering

:58:09.:58:11.

before it gets too late # Children of the universe

:58:12.:58:14.

Don't you know # Dancing on the edge of time

:58:15.:58:27.

and it's ours to own # They said it's the end

:58:28.:58:31.

but I've a feeling # As I am awakened

:58:32.:58:52.

with fire in my bones # Standing beside you I've a feeling

:58:53.:58:57.

that I'll never walk alone # Just children of the uni

:58:58.:59:12.

Children of the uni # Dancing on the edge of time

:59:13.:59:18.

and it's ours to own should be proud of herself. She

:59:19.:59:54.

wrote that song. Brilliantly staged. Very well performed. Oh.

:59:55.:59:57.

Congratulations to Very well performed. Oh.

:59:58.:00:00.

contestants tonight. If right now, you're thinking this part is so much

:00:01.:00:05.

fun... I was until you appeared. I've got good news for you. On

:00:06.:00:08.

Eurovision. TV and on the app you I've got good news for you. On

:00:09.:00:13.

:00:14.:00:19.

like. This way... Uh-oh it's a Polish invasion.

:00:20.:00:29.

Lise is loving the Green Room. Here they are. We've noticed there's one

:00:30.:00:36.

group of people who has never been thanked before in the history of

:00:37.:00:43.

Eurovision. Every country... This is Pilou, the actor. Every country has

:00:44.:00:48.

their own commentator. Their job is to provide you with information

:00:49.:00:50.

about the contest of the show. Their job is to speak, while we're

:00:51.:00:55.

speaking. Most of them are speaking right Yeah, I now. Am, yeah, yeah.

:00:56.:01:00.

Look it's a joke. They've made it funny. Chinese jokes are endless. We

:01:01.:01:07.

feel bad that they have to sit all the way up in the back of the arena.

:01:08.:01:13.

These are the booths. This is where we actually are. That's the

:01:14.:01:18.

commentator from the United Kingdom. That's Maximus Grahamus Nortonicus.

:01:19.:01:23.

Hello! -- That's Graham Norton. Hello! Listen up, we want to thank

:01:24.:01:29.

you for helping us present the show tonight. Well, thank you! Graham, we

:01:30.:01:34.

want to thank you for the fun jokes you made, especially the ones you

:01:35.:01:44.

made on my behalf. HE SPEAKS CHINESE I'm still not getting that Chinese

:01:45.:01:51.

thing. I'm trying my hardest. Nevertheless, we're sorry you have

:01:52.:01:54.

to sit in the back. We decided to help bring you the Eurovision

:01:55.:01:59.

atmosphere. Am I done? As close as possible. This is for you.

:02:00.:02:06.

Aahhh... Thank you so much. How lovely. It's so fun.

:02:07.:02:16.

This actually is fun. And to all the other great commentators. Here's a

:02:17.:02:19.

little something for you guys as well.

:02:20.:02:19.

Wow. O h! It's like the gay wedding I'll never

:02:20.:02:33.

have. That got in my wine. Oh, dear.

:02:34.:02:37.

Please give all the commentators a big round of applause for being here

:02:38.:02:44.

tonight.ment -- Tonight. The camera man was holding out a hand to me and

:02:45.:02:48.

I was thinking, "What does he want? He wanted to shake my hand and be

:02:49.:02:55.

friendly. OK, I can just about read this, covered in confetti. Phone

:02:56.:03:01.

entry, Molly. Hopefully, people across Europe are

:11:04.:11:07.

picking up their phones, but you can't, I'm told every year we get an

:11:08.:11:14.

enormous amount of calls trying the number. It's just a waste of time

:11:15.:11:18.

and you could be voting for someone else and it would actually count.

:11:19.:11:23.

When watching the Eurovision Song Contest, it might seem that the

:11:24.:11:27.

performers focus mostly on climbing to the top, but in fact the real

:11:28.:11:32.

reason we're here tonight is to celebrate a shared love for This is

:11:33.:11:36.

music. Cut-down version of the earlier interval act. I would try to

:11:37.:11:42.

explain it, but there's no explaining it. All I will say is,

:11:43.:11:46.

it's shorter and better than what there was.

:11:47.:11:54.

Previously this man was covered in seagull poop, he had a seagull on

Eurovision has been the biggest and most popular event in Denmark for

:27:02.:27:05.

many years. The Danes love it so much that we made a museum of

:27:06.:27:09.

Eurovision history full of memories and highlights from way back at the

:27:10.:27:13.

beginning in 1956 up until today. Take a look.

:27:14.:27:17.

This is actually kind of funny. Even though it's got Pilou in it.

:27:18.:27:23.

Welcome, everybody, to the world's first Museum of Eurovision History

:27:24.:27:26.

In the Museum of Eurovision History, we have collected some

:27:27.:27:35.

of the most important treasures from the show's past.

:27:36.:27:38.

For example, here we have Abba's actual costumes from 1974.

:27:39.:27:49.

Here we have the Eurovision Language School for our visitors.

:27:50.:27:53.

The children's concert is about to start in the Rainbow Room.

:27:54.:28:25.

If I could just give my legs a rub or something.

:28:26.:28:29.

I've been sitting in this chair for hours and hours every day.

:28:30.:28:32.

It's just, I'm not getting any younger here.

:28:33.:28:34.

You know what, Johnny, I've got to go, OK?

:28:35.:28:36.

If there is one group of Eurovision viewers who love to sing,

:28:37.:28:44.

dance and party in colourful costumes, it's the children.

:28:45.:28:53.

That's why we have hired the winners of 2006 to play

:28:54.:28:56.

Who wants to start the music by counting to four?

:28:57.:29:03.

OK. alla tittar pa mig

:29:04.:29:49.

In this room, we have recreated some of the finest

:29:50.:30:06.

moments in Eurovision history.

:30:07.:30:07.

So join me and look at the magic.

:30:08.:30:36.

So, I hope you have enjoyed our little trip and I'm looking forward

:31:35.:31:37.

really loves English breakfast, breakfast. I know, I know every

:31:38.:31:41.

morning has been a struggle here since the hotel you've stayed in has

:31:42.:31:44.

not served your favourite breakfast, isn't that right? No they don't have

:31:45.:31:49.

sausage and bacon. I love it. I know! I just feel like apologising

:31:50.:31:54.

on behalf of my country. That's such a major mistake. To cheer you up,

:31:55.:32:01.

here is some English breakfast. He couldn't get bacon in Copenhagen?

:32:02.:32:09.

Wow, I got confetti. That looks delicious. Over here is Molly from

:32:10.:32:16.

the UK. There she is. Anders the co-writer and producer is behind

:32:17.:32:20.

her. I did my research on you as well, I found out that you love

:32:21.:32:25.

cake. I know that you love baking cake back home in your kitchen.

:32:26.:32:32.

Sometimes. I have a feeling that Lise doesn't eat much cake. I know

:32:33.:32:35.

your favourite cake is not one of your own, it's the curly wurly cake

:32:36.:32:46.

in the borough market isn't it? I want Yeah. You to feel as comfort as

:32:47.:32:50.

possible so I went to London and got the cake for you. Here you go my

:32:51.:32:55.

dear. Molly's face is really what we're

:32:56.:33:03.

all thinking. I tasted it? Did you? Did you lick it. That is ridiculous.

:33:04.:33:08.

Yes it is, Molly. What on earth. I know your mum and dad, Jan, and Dave

:33:09.:33:13.

and your brother Sam, who are here with you, would love to share it

:33:14.:33:16.

with you. They're not getting any. This is all for Oh, one me. Piece of

:33:17.:33:21.

advice, save a slice for good old grandmother Joan back in the UK. I

:33:22.:33:26.

will save her a bit. No-one else. She's 91 years old. 92 I think. And

:33:27.:33:32.

still driving a car? Yes, she's amazing. Lise is like a Danish

:33:33.:33:39.

detective. She knows everything. Who's going to get food now? So many

:33:40.:33:43.

happy people here in the Green Room tonight. Speaking of truly happy

:33:44.:33:51.

people, let's meet the boys from These guys France. Are wild. Hello.

:33:52.:33:57.

Listen, I know that you guys love going out to eat back in Paris. I

:33:58.:34:00.

want to see if you recognise this restaurant in this picture. She's a

:34:01.:34:07.

feeder, isn't she? Yeah? They don't look like they do. Actually I don't

:34:08.:34:13.

know. This is your favourite Asian restaurant. Oh, my gosh. Yeah from

:34:14.:34:21.

your old neighbourhood. I know you go to eat there all the time. You're

:34:22.:34:30.

crazy. I think they're faking it now. I just had a little trip to

:34:31.:34:35.

Paris and got the menus from the restaurant for you.

:34:36.:34:40.

Guys, I'm thinking if you were to order something from the menu

:34:41.:34:43.

tonight, would it be the chicken curry, as always? The soup is the

:34:44.:34:50.

better thing that you can have. She didn't get that did she? That is my

:34:51.:34:54.

mistake. I took the liberty of ordering for you already. All the

:34:55.:34:59.

way from Paris... They did point out that 180 million people are watching

:35:00.:35:06.

this. Zblrningts zblnkts I think they know him! Are you serious? Have

:35:07.:35:13.

a good evening, you guys. Actually that is pretty cute. As you can see,

we do our best to make our contestants feel at home. We do that

:35:19.:35:23.

by serving lots of food. Lovely, thank you very much.

Cut away before she eats any. We hope you've enjoyed our show so far.

:35:31.:35:39.

Soon we will be ready to announce the winner our contest. We want to

:35:45.:35:49.

Emmelie De Forest, the winner of last year's Eurovision Song Contest.

:35:50.:35:53.

This is lovely. The dancers look like they're trying to climb through

:35:54.:36:00.

a bush. Oh, no. In China they call Emmelie De Forest "Little That's not

:36:01.:36:05.

butterfly". A quick, fun fact. It was quick, fun and that's a fact.

:36:06.:36:09.

of some of the sights and sounds we've enjoyed tonight before we go

:41:09.:42:18.

to the scoring, to tell us whether or not the voting is ready. In

:42:19.:42:25.

rehearsals voting has been a particularly painful process. It's

:42:26.:42:30.

extraordinary that in 2014, with new technology and better

:42:31.:42:33.

communications, this part of the show never gets any easier.

:42:34.:42:40.

The chemistry between Lise and Yanola is tangible. I mean really,

:42:57.:43:00.

executive supervisor of the EBU. That's right. All right. The big

:43:01.:43:05.

question is of course, have all the votes been added up? Yes, they have.

:43:06.:43:12.

We will now start the tour around Europe to find out who's the winner.

:43:13.:43:18.

That is good news. Just between you and me, who's winning? You have to

:43:19.:43:25.

be patient. We will do that now. We will collect every vote from every

:43:26.:43:29.

country and then you will see. OK. I will have to be patient, that's what

:43:30.:43:34.

you're saying. We'll do it the old fashioned way. Thank you so much.

:43:35.:43:40.

Over to Nikolaj and Pilou. Looks like the voting is going to

:43:41.:43:44.

begin. Excellent. Ladies and gentleman. This is it. Come on

:43:45.:43:48.

Molly. This is the moment we've all been waiting for. We thank you for

:43:49.:43:53.

:43:59.:44:01.

countries are up to the Guys, give task. Me a wave if you're ready.

:44:02.:44:08.

There they are. They look ready. A rogues gallery.

:44:09.:44:18.

First Azerbaijan. Good evening.

:44:19.:44:27.

Good evening, ladies and gentleman... One point for Conchita.

:44:28.:44:38.

Thank you very much for your great show. Let me please say hello to all

:44:39.:44:43.

Eurovision family. Yes. Now you know the job they gave you? So, here is

:44:44.:44:51.

our That's right results. . We gave eight points to... Hungary.

:44:52.:45:04.

It's a good song. Ten points go to Ukraine. Tick-Tock.

:45:05.:45:21.

And, and finally, with the big love from Azerbaijan, our 12 points go to

:45:22.:45:25.

Russia. Not a popular result here in the

:45:26.:45:29.

house. I feel sorry, those girls are just 17 and it's not their fault.

:45:30.:45:37.

But this will not go well. -- well in the hall if Russia do

:55:48.:55:55.

the house for the three points for Denmark.

:55:56.:56:09.

She speaks great French, doesn't she? I think she's on a night

:56:10.:56:17.

course. I think she's lost the crowd. The

:56:18.:56:29.

Netherlands, eight points. Austria, ten points. There she goes into the

:56:30.:56:42.

lead. Armenia, 12 points. This is going to be an exciting

:59:48.:59:51.

Molly not doing as well as we'd hoped at this early stage in the

:59:52.:00:04.

voting. It is terribly light in Reykjavik. Four the United Kingdom,

:00:05.:00:17.

thank you. McGregor eight points from Iceland to go to Denmark. I

:00:18.:00:28.

thought Denmark would do well. They must be terribly disappointed. Ten

:00:29.:00:33.

:00:34.:00:42.

they have... 12 points for the Netherlands. Congratulations to the

that song deserves to be on the left-hand side of the scoreboard!

:01:57.:02:02.

But there it is. This isn't to bring your daughter to work Day, that is a

band. Alcazar. They have had hits and everything. Good evening, it is

:02:10.:02:16.

Alcazar! We are going to party tonight. Our eight points from

:02:17.:02:25.

Sweden go to Denmark. Ten points go to Netherlands. Austria could get

:02:26.:02:30.

another 12 here. Our 12 points... to Netherlands. Austria could get

:02:31.:02:41.

to... Austria! It is looking very good for Conchita right now. Moving

:02:42.:02:49.

on now, let's hear the votes from Belarus. Ishii at a wedding? She has

:02:50.:03:00.

left her own reception! -- ease sheep.

:03:01.:03:15.

Hello, Europe! Are you ready? Wow. Big Green eight points from Belarus

:03:16.:03:23.

go to the Ukraine -- eight points. You are pleased, no one else's. Ten

:03:24.:03:33.

points go to Armenia. I can hear some booing here. 12 points go to

:03:34.:03:49.

Russia. BOOING. I do feel badly for those girls,

:03:50.:03:54.

they are 17 years old. It is unfortunate. But we totally

:03:55.:04:00.

understand it. This is a huge pop star in Germany and she is on the

:04:01.:04:04.

streets of Hamburg. I mean, she is working... She is not... Disses

:04:05.:04:16.

hamburg calling! 74 Austria. Germany is blown away by your fantastic

:04:17.:04:21.

show, especially Hamburg tonight. May we have your top points? We have

:04:22.:04:34.

complete 12 points mania. -- we have complete Eurovision mania. Our eight

:04:35.:04:45.

points go to Denmark. Ten points go to Poland. I thought Poland might do

:04:46.:04:56.

better with the jokey element. And finally, our 12 points go to the

:04:57.:05:02.

nether lands. -- the Netherlands. This is too close to call. That is

:05:03.:05:11.

the Netherlands and Austria both getting four 12s server. Off to

:05:12.:05:18.

Israel now, and Jerusalem. We are halfway through the voting. That is

:05:19.:05:26.

not depressing, is it? Top so far, Austria, benevolence and Armenia.

:05:27.:05:30.

But I dare say the competition is much still alive. -- Belarus. It is.

:05:31.:05:44.

Sweden were the bookies' favourite, but they have slipped down.

:05:45.:06:00.

The most las. Since the start of Eurovision, two letters have been as

:06:01.:06:07.

important as the voting process. And quickly, the las have involved into

:06:08.:06:16.

-- evolved into a language of their own. Happy, emotional, obsessed...

:06:17.:06:38.

The ooh la las and even the funeral ones. But it is hard not to smile

:06:39.:06:47.

when you do them. In 1968, Spain even named did their song, and the

:06:48.:06:54.

evergreen song contained no less than 126 las. And apparently, they

:06:55.:07:00.

love the las in Spain because they set an all-time record in 1979. Four

:07:01.:07:08.

kids sang the impressive number of 152. Congratulations, Spain.

:07:09.:07:16.

Interesting. No, it's not. But they do have to have a lot of commercials

:07:17.:07:21.

across Europe. If Austria wins tonight, it is the first time they

:07:22.:07:25.

will have one in 49 years and when it went to Vienna was when Sandie

:07:26.:07:29.

Shaw won the competition for the United Kingdom. This is the top as

:07:30.:07:35.

it looks right now. What has happened? Nothing has happened.

:07:36.:07:50.

I am surprised it is doing as it is. This was always going to be a dark

:07:51.:07:56.

horse but people have taken to it in a big way. Calm After The Storm.

:07:57.:08:07.

Here she is. Just for the atmosphere in the hall, I would quite like her

:08:08.:08:13.

to win. It would go bonkers if she did take the trophy back tonight. I

:08:14.:08:18.

am here with Conchita, who is currently in the lead. I have to ask

:08:19.:08:27.

you the obvious question, how do you feel? I'm so thankful. I don't

:08:28.:08:38.

know... I think that says it all. Keep your fingers crossed, Conchita,

:08:39.:08:44.

there is still some work to do. I don't think that is an act. I think

:08:45.:08:50.

she really is overcome. We are still to hear the votes from 17 more

:08:51.:08:57.

countries. Wow. I might fall asleep! It might get more sighting and this

:08:58.:09:03.

-- exciting than this, let's continue with the voting from

:09:04.:09:15.

Israel. Anything for us? No. This is not going well now. Good

:09:16.:09:23.

afternoon... He is appearing on the screen behind. There he is. With the

:09:24.:09:31.

results of the Israeli votes, eight points will go to Romania. Ten

:09:32.:09:50.

points to Sweden. They might give points to Azerbaijan. And finally,

:09:51.:09:55.

12 points from Israel to Conchita, Austria. Of course, Israel was the

:09:56.:10:09.

home of Dana International. And we turn to Portugal, may we have your

:10:10.:10:16.

points please? More beautiful Fountains... Congratulations for the

:10:17.:10:22.

amazing show, here are the Portuguese voting results. Eight

:10:23.:10:31.

points from Portugal go to Sweden. Ten points go to the Netherlands.

:10:32.:10:41.

And finally, 12 points from Portugal go to Austria.

:10:42.:10:48.

Thank you very much, Portugal. This is remarkable. We knew Conchita

:10:49.:10:58.

would do well. I think Norway will give her 12 as well. Three for the

:10:59.:11:04.

United Kingdom, give her 12 as well. Three for the

:11:05.:11:08.

Molly thank you. Good evening, Oslo, can we have your points? There is a

:11:09.:11:16.

sci-fi convention behind her. Hello to all of you beautiful people in

:11:17.:11:21.

Europe, I hope you take care of each other and have a great time. Thanks

:11:22.:11:31.

for that. Eight points go to Sweden. OK, they would normally give Sweden

:11:32.:11:41.

12. Ten points go to lovely Austria. So it will be the Netherlands or

:11:42.:11:48.

Denmark... ? 12 points go to the nether lands. The Netherlands it is.

:11:49.:11:56.

It is neck and neck. Let's move on to Estonia, here are the first

:11:57.:12:11.

points. There is no hair gel left where he is. Good evening, Europe.

:12:12.:12:23.

Let's get to our remaining points. Yes, let's. Eight points go to the

:12:24.:12:34.

Ukraine. Ten points go to Sweden. Sweden? They often give big points

:12:35.:12:44.

to Russia as well. And last but not least, 12 points from Estonia go to

:12:45.:12:51.

the nether lands! Congratulations. -- benevolence. Congratulations to

:12:52.:13:11.

the Netherlands. Good evening, can we have your remaining points? First

:13:12.:13:22.

of all, we would like to say thank you for this beautiful light. The

:13:23.:13:25.

first part of our boats, you can see on the screen, and we gave eight

:13:26.:13:34.

points to Sweden. -- of our boats. Ten points to Austria.

:13:35.:13:44.

And 12 Hunger Aryan points go to the Netherlands -- Hungarian. Well,

:13:45.:13:56.

isn't this interesting? That is the seventh time the nether lands get 12

:13:57.:14:03.

points. In terms of 12s, they are beating Austria. Good evening, this

:14:04.:14:18.

Eurovision is a fairy tale. Is there a black out there? Eight points from

:14:19.:14:28.

Moldova go to Russia. Steady, everyone, they are probably not

:14:29.:14:32.

going to win. Ten points to the Ukraine. Maybe I spoke too soon

:14:33.:14:40.

about voting across political divides. 12 points from Moldova go

:14:41.:14:46.

to Romania. Yes, in fact, I did speak too soon. But, next, we go to

:14:47.:14:56.

Ireland and Nicky Byrne. Doesn't he look smart? We are hoping for big

:14:57.:15:06.

things, come on, Ireland. You are not in it, help Molly. Eight points

:15:07.:15:17.

go to the United Kingdom! Thank you so much, Ireland. Ten points go to

:15:18.:15:36.

the nether lands. Do they love Conchita as much as the rest of us?

:15:37.:15:42.

12 points go to Austria. Yes, they do!

:15:43.:15:51.

Now we say hello to Finland. What you're looking at there is a Finnish

:15:52.:15:56.

rapper. I know you didn't think they exist, but they do. HE RAPS

:15:57.:16:11.

That wasn't embarrassing at all, well done.

:16:12.:16:16.

Greetings Europe. Finland's eight points go to... The Netherlands. Y

:16:17.:16:32.

o. And our ten points go to Sweden. Is it another 12? Finally Finland's

:16:33.:16:41.

12 points go to... Austria. She has touched hearts tonight. This is the

:16:42.:16:47.

eighth time tonight that Austria has received top points.

:16:48.:16:53.

It does restore your faith in people if Conchita Wurst can do so well in

:16:54.:16:58.

a competition like this. Here we are in Lithuania.

:16:59.:17:03.

OK. May we have your top points please. Good evening Denmark,

:17:04.:17:13.

Europe. Here are the Lithuanian votes. Eight points for the land of

:17:14.:17:25.

fjords, Norway. Now it's time to shave, Austria ten

:17:26.:17:33.

points. Oh, no. Hmm, not sure about that. And the land of love. The

:17:34.:17:36.

Netherlands. Time to shave, I think not. Well

:17:37.:17:58.

said, Nikolaj. There was a competition, people were

:17:59.:18:06.

knitting beards and sending them in. Can we please have your top points.

:18:07.:18:10.

Good evening Copenhagen, Vienna calling. Conchita, mwah. Here are

:18:11.:18:18.

the final points from Austria. Eight points go to Romania. Ten points go

:18:19.:18:30.

to the Netherlands. Interesting. And finally, 12 points go to Armenia. If

:18:31.:18:39.

the Netherlands win, they've won four times in the past, but not

:18:40.:18:44.

since 1975. Whoever wins tonight, I think it will be a big event.

:18:45.:18:49.

Seven for the Netherlands. Five for Molly! Thank you very much Spain.

:18:50.:18:57.

Good evening Europe. Congratulations, lots of kisses to

:18:58.:19:01.

the millions of euro fans. Now here are the results of the Spanish vote,

:19:02.:19:08.

good luck to you all. Eight points from Spain go to - Yes? That's

:19:09.:19:23.

suspense. Eight points? Yes, eight points from Spain go to Romania.

:19:24.:19:35.

Oh, we waited for that? Ten points go to Sweden. And finally, our 12

:19:36.:19:45.

points go to... Austria. It's too early to say but I think

:19:46.:19:57.

she's going to do it. Next up, Belgium. Belgium and Italy,

:19:58.:20:04.

Switzerland. All countries that will probably vote for Austria. One for

:20:05.:20:09.

Molly, thank you very much. We'll take it. Hello Copenhagen, Brussels

:20:10.:20:17.

calling. It's an honour for to give you the Belgian votes. Eight points

:20:18.:20:19.

go to the Netherlands. Ten points go to Sweden. Oh, is it

:20:20.:20:37.

12 for Austria or are they going to throw a curve ball? Our 12 boints go

:20:38.:20:43.

to Austria! Conchita you haven't got it yet.

:20:44.:21:00.

Ukraine and Georgia and Slovenia probably won't give you 12. He's

:21:01.:21:08.

actually in Milan. This is Italy calling. Our eight points go to

:21:09.:21:21.

Poland. OK. Our ten points go to Ukraine. Quite random voting. And

:21:22.:21:33.

our 12 points go to... Conchita, Austria.

:21:34.:21:40.

She needs these 12s, because she's not going to get 12s, I think, from

:21:41.:21:46.

the Ukraine or Georgia or Slovenia. The last country that I think will

:21:47.:21:51.

give her votes is Switzerland. Here are the first Ukrainian votes.

:21:52.:21:59.

Good evening. Can we have your top points. Hello Copenhagen, Kiev

calling. I'm so happy to be here tonight. It is a wonderful time.

:22:05.:22:10.

Thank you. Here are the points from Ukraine: Eight points go to Austria.

:22:11.:22:21.

I'm amazed Ukraine have given her that many points. Ten points go to

:22:22.:22:35.

Armenia. And less amazed by that. And finally, 12 points go to...

:22:36.:22:47.

Sweden. Interesting, they did give Russia four points. Ladies and

:22:48.:22:54.

gentleman, we have done the maths, it's no secret any more, Austria is

:22:55.:22:58.

in the lead and it's no longer possible for any other country to

:22:59.:23:04.

move ahead. We are ready to announce the winner... The winner is Austria!

:23:05.:23:14.

It's been one of the most exciting voting sequences we've had in many

:23:15.:23:18.

years. Everyone here is

:23:19.:23:21.

years. Conchita. Queen of Europe. They

:23:22.:23:36.

haven't won for 49 years. Let's hope that Molly - oh, hello. I'll have a

:23:37.:23:42.

large gin and tonic, thank you very much. Yes, hello guys. Hi, how are

:23:43.:23:50.

you doing? Hello Europe. This is Berne calling. We won't change a lot

:23:51.:23:54.

of the result. But these are the national points of the jury and

:23:55.:23:58.

public and audience in Switzerland. Spain gets eight points. Ruth

:23:59.:24:06.

Lorenzo there. And ten points to the Netherlands. Very good show for the

:24:07.:24:16.

Netherlands. And the Queen of Austria gets the 12 points from

:24:17.:24:20.

Switzerland as well. Cement ing that lead. An unbeatable lead, this

:24:21.:24:25.

year's winner. Now it's on to Georgia.

:24:26.:24:31.

Three for Molly, thank you very much. Now I won't be rude about your

:24:32.:24:39.

jacket. Good evening Europe. You can't imagine how much we miss you.

:24:40.:24:43.

We miss you the best of Where have luck. You been? Now about our

:24:44.:24:50.

results. What about them? Eight points go to Russia.

:24:51.:24:56.

The booing is diminished, a little. Ten points go to Austria. This is

:24:57.:25:06.

extraordinary. That was a country I really didn't think would give her a

:25:07.:25:13.

big score. Our 12 points go to... Armenia. Now you say political

:25:14.:25:20.

voting, in fact Armenia were tipped to do well. The last country up is

:25:21.:25:25.

Slovenia. Goodness. What has she got on? Good

:25:26.:25:33.

evening. Is that a tortoise on her head? Hello Copenhagen. Hello

:25:34.:25:39.

Denmark. This is Slovenia calling. These are our results, but the

:25:40.:25:43.

result is obvious. Eight points go to Sweden. Disappoint ed for Molly.

:25:44.:25:50.

I thought she would do better. She deserved to do better. It was a

:25:51.:25:54.

great performance. I think maybe coming last was what did us in.

:25:55.:26:04.

Finally 12 points go to our neighbour and congratulations

:26:05.:26:08.

Conchita, Austria, 12 points. Well, you can't say fairer than

:26:09.:26:16.

that. A resounding victory. Conchita Wurst and her song Rise Like A

:26:17.:26:20.

Phoenix. We have the winner. The winner is...

:26:21.:26:23.

Conchita Wurst. Molly did considerably better than

:26:24.:26:34.

bonnie last year. She comes 17th out of 26. Obviously

:26:35.:26:39.

we'd like her to have done better. But she can be very, very proud of

:26:40.:26:45.

herself. She's big friends with Ruth Lorenzo.

:26:46.:26:53.

They call them the Kardashian sisters back stage. I can't remember

:26:54.:26:56.

a more popular winner. People are delighted. I knew she'd get the

:26:57.:27:00.

popular vote. I thought the juries might resist her. They might just

:27:01.:27:05.

think she was a novelty act. But she has touched the hearts of people

:27:06.:27:12.

across Europe. Remember, if you want to carry on the party, join Parry

:27:13.:27:18.

O'Connells Eurovision after-party on BBC Radio two.

:27:19.:27:27.

Here she comes to the stage. What an amazing moment for Conchita Wurst.

:27:28.:27:35.

At first they laughed and then she just broke people's hearts.

:27:36.:27:46.

Emmelie De Forest handing over the - well, I can't say a beautiful

:27:47.:27:56.

trophy, but it's a trophy. It's not about the trophy. Oh, mind your hair

:27:57.:28:01.

Conchita. Congratulations. Do you have any

:28:02.:28:16.

words at all? I do. This night is dedicated to everyone who believes

:28:17.:28:22.

in a future of peace and freedom. CHEERING

:28:23.:28:30.

You know who you are. We are unity and we are unstoppable. Well said.

:28:31.:28:43.

Conchita, we can't wait... She's not wrong. The future seems a little bit

:28:44.:28:50.

brighter when Eurovision can crown Conchita Wurst its very popular

:28:51.:28:57.

winner this year. Wow, well Europe, this week we have

:28:58.:29:01.

seen two semifinals and one Grand Final. Yes, 37 different songs have

:29:02.:29:09.

been performed on this stage and you have now chosen your winner. But

:29:10.:29:13.

before we are ready to hear the winning song one more time, let's

:29:14.:29:18.

give a big round of applause to all of tonight's performers.

:29:19.:29:21.

:29:55.:30:03.

good night. We are ready to celebrate the winner of the

:30:04.:30:07.

Eurovision Song Contest 2014. Before that, there's only one last thing we

:30:08.:30:09.

have to say, are you ready? I can't do it.

:30:10.:30:20.

Good night Europe! They rehearsed that.

:30:21.:30:26.
