The Official Eurovision Song Contest Podcast

In each episode of the Official Eurovision Song Contest Podcast, we’ll be meeting a crew member from the production team working directly on the production that you see on television, we’ll hear from someone who oversees a technical area of the broadcast, and we’ll meet a member of staff from the participating delegations who are responsible for the on-stage artists and their performances. It's Eurovision Grand Final day in Tel Aviv! In this episode, we ask the Contest Producer what the process is behind creating the perfect running order for the Grand Final.

We hear from the man responsible for ensuring all of your tele-votes are registered and the correct number of points allocated. The France Télévisions head of delegation explains the staging development process between national final and the ESC stage. Plus we meet this year's spokesperson for the BBC. We'll hear what he thinks is key to successfully delivering the results of a national jury in the Grand Final.
