Croatia and Portugal

Croatia -

This was, for us, the surprise qualifier from last night's 2nd semi final. It's a pretty little song, but we think it could have been the song that was saved by the jury. It's another competently performed song, again on a blue set. However the audience at home will be craving something a bit different by this point in the evening's proceedings. An average reaction by the audience.



Portugal -

Everyone loves the Portuguese - both this year and last, they have conducted themselves very well: they are modest, friendly and good-natured. They are enjoying themselves.

For us, this song features the best set in the entire costest - it's colourful and creates an impression of the fairground and carnival. This will probably end up midtable, but it's been one of the most delightful performances of the Contest. Good for Portugal! A good reaction from the audience.
