Is there another round of finalists to be found out or have they all been decided? It's so hard to keep up with how it all works now.

Twenty six finalists.

Oh, gawd....

Yes seems an odd number but I'm sure a boffins figured out the equation for maximum act numbers versus overkill audience exhaustion.
25.7 was probably it but they've rounded up to fit one more in.

My top three thank you for asking:
1. Czech Republic
2. Netherlands
3. Russia
4. Israel
5. Swenormark

Yeah, perhaps, but then he kept standing really close behind her and she kept having to do this deft manouvre she's probably learnt after years of working with creepy male cooks in professional kitchings to make them keep a degree of distance (kind of jutting the hip out, shifting the upper body away and turning and staring directly back into the space-invader's eyes stare

).

And he kept jabbering away and being a general b*ll*nd and babbling along with Cheryl and Jay Aston just stood there dead-eyed like a showroom dummy and Sonia kept squeaking away and that woman who got interrupted by a stage invader kept droning on in a painfully common Estuary English monotone.

It was hell. sad yes
