All-Star Eurovision Song Contest

The All-Star Eurovision Song Contest 2020 was a replacement for the 65th edition of the annual Eurovision Song Contest. It took place in various living rooms across Europe.

Thirty-three countries took part in the contest; a further 18 countries were denied entry as part of the selection process and instead formed the All-Star Semi Final broadcast two nights before.

The winner was [ ].

The EBU reported the contest had an audience of at least 11 viewers.

Format[edit]

Visual design[edit]

The visual design was pretty basic. What else did we have but Zoom and ScoreWiz?

Postcards[edit]

There weren't any. We couldn't leave our own neighbourhoods, let alone film postcards around Europe. What a daft question.

Presenters[edit]

Eurovision Song Contest presenters are typically renowned for being total guff, so thankfully there weren't any.

Allocation draw[edit]

The draw to determine the participating countries took place on 25 April 2020 at roughly 16:00 CET, in a kitchen.

Voting[edit]

On 30 March 2019 the organising committee announced the presentation of the televoting result during the grand final would change because, you know, it didn't quite have the financial resource of the EBU. Each participant would award the usual 12, 10, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 and 1 points to its top 10 songs, and the winner would be, well, the winner. No split vote, no televote, and no Russian bias. Capisce?

Opening and interval acts[edit]

Madonna performed neither "Like a Prayer" nor "Future" during the interval of the final. Thank the Lord.

At some point, it was decided that the organiser would spend a few nights bunging together a Microsoft PowerPoint slide show of all of the winners in the 64-year history of the Contest. The organiser hopes that it went down, if not well, then at least neutrally. The interval act was [TBC].

The organisers announced that the thirty-three countries with the best overall Eurovision pedigree would perform in the final. A further eighteen countries who have either fared less successfully over the years, or which are generally considered interlopers, were excluded and forced instead to provide an entry for the Semi-Final.
