Just a few of my favourite Graham Norton Eurovision quotes...
“Well, that wasn’t embarrassing at all, well done.”
“Small children and pets should probably move from the room. Here’s Cezar, proving that just because you can do something, doesn’t mean you should.”
“The song is called ‘Alcohol is Free’. Ironic to sing that in Sweden, where it’s anything else. You have to sell your car to get a pint.”
“This will put fear into your heart – she’s a devoted experimental jazz musician. She can do extraordinary things with her voice…not pleasant things but extraordinary.”
“He looks like a nice boy who’s fallen in with the wrong lot, doesn’t he?”
“It’s an unusual Eurovision this year. There are lots of songs that are really quite good and brilliantly sung. This is not one of those. It’s Russia.”
“They’re drinking quite a lot. It’s almost like they think they’re not going to perform again.” -Graham talking about the UK’s backing dancers
“Miraculously, and I mean that, she has made it through to the final”
“The bad news is, you’re about to watch Albania. She’s only 17, so please bear that in mind. Where was her mother? Why didn’t she step in and say no?”
“Oh thank you, it’s so fun! It’s like the gay wedding I’ll never have! It’s gone in my wine!” - When they threw confetti over Graham
“Oh thank you, three points! I won’t make fun of your jacket now then!”
"Certainly the cleaner won’t be pleased.“ - When the streamers opened
