Oh yes. I only heard of the new voting system when eurovision ( i only watched the final and i think i psoted this after one of the semis) actually started the other night.
Its a lot fairer but the expert judges are only from a handful of countries so they could still tend towards countries they like.

I thought it was a bit boring this year, the songs all seemed to be ballads instead of the crazy euro disco stuff that is so funny to watch.
I thought our entry was better this year than in previous years not particularly because of the song, but because of Jade who is a fantastic singer and deserved her place as our representative.
Graham Norton was also a bit reserved in his comments, I wish he had gone for it a bit more and taken the mikey out of the contestants a bit more!
I am not fussed one way or the other if we pull out or not, it makes for an ok evenings viewing, we record it and fast foward through any boring bits!
Agree that the voting is the best part of the show as we try to second guess which country is going to award top marks to their mates and it was still going on between some countries!
