Eurovision 2012: After the Show
This year has been quite like no other recent Eurovision. The fallout from it has yet to really be seen, but is already being felt.
In a three-part post-contest podcast, AJ & Hikki discuss where Eurovision went and where it is going to after this year’s contest.
In Part One, we look at the BBC, and how the way the BBC launched the campaign for their entrant Engelbert Humperdinck, and whether it played a role in the UK achieving second-to-last place.
In Part Two, we look at how the contest this year unfolded: the political frisson between the host country and the press, the change in the way the voting recap was done, as well as the voting.
In Part Three, we talk to Rick of the website 12Points.tv, on possible Swedish plans for Eurovision 2013 as well as the difficulties of covering Eurovision 2012.
