The second semi-final of Eurovision is well underway, with the grand final just two days away. And it's not just the musical performances impressing fans but the trio of talented women hosting it: Britain's Got Talent's Alesha Dixon, Ted Lasso's Hannah Waddingham (who gave a speech in fluent French!) and Ukrainian singer Julia Sanina.
At the start of the show, the three stars took to the stage to introduce the first act, and before the night truly kicked off, 44-year-old singer and former Strictly star Alesha Dixon gave viewers at home a run-down of just how to vote for your favourite act. But as she was broadcasting to countries across Europe, she gave the details of the official Eurovision text message voting system, forcing semi-final commentator Rylan Clark, who is co-commentating with Radio 2's Scott Mills, to clarify the methods by which to vote in the UK as text message voting does not work here.
As reported by The Express, she told BBC viewers live: "The power is in your hands. With great power comes great responsibility. Whether you vote via the official Eurovision app, by phone or by text message, the numbers you need are on the screen now."
