We Need A Doctor!

Eurovision Calling

Available for over a year

Tel Aviv 2019 faced a major casualty when the 42 participating countries became 41, due to Ukraine dropping out of the competition! So, we did what any sane people would do when faced with a Eurovision emergency – we called a doctor. Dr Eurovision aka Paul Jordan, delivered a full autopsy on the events leading up to Maruv’s departure from the contest. Meanwhile, Italy’s act Mahmood stormed the streaming charts with his song Soldi and Eurovision Hero Kris Boswell gave us the lowdown on the selection show to end all selection shows, Sweden’s Melodifestivalen. We of course also had another instalment of The Unofficial Eurovision Chart Show and this episode, Estonia and Albania’s entries went ‘Under the Spotlight.’ Plus, Jayde called the UK's Michael Rice for a catch-up and Rag’n’Bone Man recited our Eurovision Lyric of the Week – it’s a classic!
