Missed opportunities! Could have linked so much of main story to #eurovision intro - how media worship of a dictator leads to v bad songs (Belarus 2011), how they have dolls in Luxembourg (2025) & how Swedish press freedom means constantly mocking selves (every interval act they hosted).

Probably some weird geoblocking - if I switch on a VPN & set it to new york, my options reduce to the 2025 1st semi-final , JJ's winning performance, Germany 2025 and then the next is Italy 2012 :/

They're all showing up in Canada (which historically had geoblocks)

(And omg - 2009!! Was the last time they all successfully qualified together (eg 2010 hosted by Norway doesn't count because Norway didn't qualify, same for Sweden 2013 etc))

#NoSpoilers then!
Last #eurovision with all Scandis in the final was 2014 (Denmark hosted as 2013 winners, Sweden, Iceland, Norway, Finland all qualified)
