Eurovision News!

Starting next year there will be two semi-finals instead of one, and only the winning country and the Big Four will automatically qualify for the final. Speculation about possible results here (My guess is this will not result in high scores for the Big Four, but hey). Tough luck for the nrs 2-10 of this year because they will have to compete in one of the semi-finals in 2008. There's also speculation that juries will once again play a role in the Song Contest in an effort to lessen the impact of diaspora votes.

That means three Eurovision nights instead of two!
At least I hope so, I'd hate it if we only got to see the semi our own country participated in... Perhaps it's time for a EurovisionTV-channel, before the Song Contest takes over the whole month of May.

(thanks again Warskinny for rousing me from my Eurovision-sleep)
