Well, that was a lot of fun. I love this show, and social media makes it that much better. And with that, normal service resumes. Night all! #Eurovision

SECOND PLACE! An excellent, beyond hope result for the #UK. Perhaps a little disappointing vote count from the public, but never mind.

And deserved congratulations to #UKR - a little bit of much needed positivity. I'm pleased they won. #Eurovision

Moment of truth #Eurovision

Regardless, the #UK has for once done very well in this year's competition. #UKR was always likely to win, I think #Eurovision

Ukraine fly up to the top? Yep, not surprised! #Eurovision

Surprised #ITA got that many votes TBH. Wasn't a great performance. #Eurovision

Ooh, the tension! #Eurovision

My choice, #MDA, did well in the public vote, let down (unsurprisingly) by the jury vote. #Eurovision

Ooh - I just stood up. Too much wine 🍷 #Eurovision

So, the United Kingdom #UK wins #Eurovision on the jury vote! I'll take that, thanks. Who wants to trust the public vote? #Eurovision

How rude. Nothing from Australia. #Eurovision

Are the audience allowed wine? How do they keep going? It's gone midnight there! #Eurovision

I hereby propose to scrap this year's public vote and call the competition closed after the jury vote finishes... Or now! #Eurovision

What? WHAT? Another 12 points from Germany and Belgium! What is going on! #Eurovision

Don't get hopes up! Don't get hopes up!

"The United Kingdom is in the lead" - when was that last said? And another 12 from Azerbaijan! #Eurovision

Wow! 12 points from Ukraine! #Eurovision

Hooray! Points straight away. Job done, goodnight! #Eurovision

Making it sound like the validation of the jury vote was super quick but it's already been done! #Eurovision

And now the lines are closed, all the votes are printed out and counted one by one! #Eurovision

Feeling a tad old... Exactly how many years ago was it MIKA appeared on Jools Holland? #Eurovision
