<title>140 characters : Eurovision is dead.</title>

<description>Actually I&amp;#039;m with you Efan. It does feel a little like Eurovision has turned into such a massive machine that the original spirit of it is getting lost a bit. I always feel it when I see the arenas packed full of audience sat on one level. The atmosphere in the Telenor on Thursday still look dull because everyone was on a level (OK sure, the people on the raked seating at the sides had a better view) but still .. that massive arena style event must make for a weird experience there. It&amp;#039;s still a TV show but I hope in time we&amp;#039;ll see a return to that sense of visiting a hosting a country in a TV show rather than the fast-paced production we&amp;#039;ve come to expect in recent years. First thing to get changed though is the ridiculous moving cameras. They really are tiresome.</description>
