There was a problem with recording of 2nd dress rehearsal for juries as for some reason official schedule sent to broadcasters had the show starting at 20.30, while at real it started at 20.00 and many countries simply had missed the time. After complaints, we believe, it was decided that first 30 minutes will be rerun on satellite again.
As we informed earlier, Sweden won the dummy voting (tied with Latvia). There were minor problems, as Russian spokesperson was not informed that now they have to read all points, and Moldovan Stefan Roscovan hadn't the points in due time so was connected again at the end. By the way, the full list of spokespersons is as usual available on our main news page.
All countries are broadcasting the show live, however in Macedonia, Latvia it will be broadcasted by 2nd national channel, in Netherlands as usual by 3rd channel and in Sweden by kids channel.
