The Eurovision Song Contest is well underway for 2021 and Peter and Russell are reviewing the performances, playing various entries and making some predictions. We have seen most of the dress rehearsals, we've read the reviews, we've picked our favourites and we know which countries have made it into the Grand Final. We will also cover some more fun facts, play some previous winners and talk about how COVID has changed the Eurovision rules. So turn on your wind and smoke machines, break out the Swedish Meatballs and spin those disco balls for the musical extravaganza that awaits. Let the Sound Bites Grand Final of the Eurovision Song Contest review begin!
