Eagle-eyed viewers of Eurovision's first semi-final spotted an interesting Nottinghamshire link just before Moldova took to the stage. Sherwood Forest made an appearance on Eurovision on Tuesday, May 9, when it appeared in Moldova's postcard segment before Pasha Parfeni performed its 2023 entry, Soarele şi Luna.
Liverpool is hosting the competition on behalf of 2022 winners Ukraine with the song "Stefania" performed by the group Kalush Orchestra. And the filmed postcards, used to introduce each act to the Eurovision stage, will this year feature locations from across Ukraine.
The short clips, which have been using drone technology and 360-degree cameras, give the commentators the chance to highlight the competing country and its entrant. They will each feature a Ukrainian location alongside an equivalent in the UK and the participating country.
