Eurovision in Liverpool: A beautiful, brilliant, bonkers dream

The French national newspaper Le Monde ran a headline this week, it said: "La ville de Liverpool se pare des couleurs de l'Ukraine."

The translation? 'The city of Liverpool, carried away by the madness of the competition, is adorned with the colours of Ukraine.' I'd say they nailed it with that one. If you have been lucky enough to have spent any time in Liverpool this week, then you will have felt part of something very, very special.

From the minute we saw a giant octopus pursuing a huge blue and yellow submarine along Church Street, we knew this was going to be an incredible week for this city.
