Eurovision 2000 - Voting Part 1/5 (British commentary)

[@Jeffreypennings8]

In the Netherlands a Firework depot exploded in Enschede in the middle of a neighbourhood. 23 people where killed and 947 people where injured after this disaster and 400 houses where destroyed. The Dutch broadcaster had to free up capacity for the emergency services communications. For that reason there was no televoting.

@ 3:34 denmark will have the 1st 12 points and they have the very 1st lead and will get use to seeing denmark's name on top of this sheet because they will take it wire to wire

[@beandrag9019]

Love the commentator being mad about Latvia and Estonia giving each other twelve points but just not acknowledging the fact that his own country literally have ten to Ireland. Like okay biased asf

[@naisi]

Wow, I totally forgot they used to announce all the votes verbally until a few years ago, got used to the 1-7s just popping up so quickly.

[@Euroviking86]

This is the worst looking scoreboard ever. It's like it was designed in Microsoft Word, and all the flags failed to load.

[@staporinac]

+setheurovision94 Even worse, If I may notice, graphics look like they are made on Atari 2600. -.-

[@JeSuisRene]

Apparently, it was made by BBC resources (as per Terry Wogan). The same people who programmed the superior 1998 scoreboard and the alright 1999 scoreboard...

[@Euroviking86]

@@JeSuisRene Apparently the BBC offered SVT a similar style of visually-sound scoreboard, but SVT wanted it 'futuristic'. 'Cause a blurry city skyline was so futuristic.

[@JeSuisRene]

@@Euroviking86 what on earth were SVT thinking?

[@dramaticScar]

And that background is like watch a gameplay of a video game in 2008 where the placed the camera in front of the TV and the view was foggy

[@FlavioGirl]

[@StFidjnr]

[@UnloosedHUNTER]

[@TheStockholmia]

There was a fireworks disaster so they didnt feel it right to broadcast the contest.

[@ok-vk9fv]

@FlavioGirl I suppose The Enschede fireworks disaster. There was a big explosion that killed 23 people, injured 947 , destroyed and demaged thousands houses in this small Dutch town. Perhaps there were problems with telecommunications in this part of Netherlands because of the explosion, therefore they decided not to do televoting.

[@nielsdegroot9138]

No, the Dutch national broadcaster cut the transmission of Eurovision because in part they wanted to use the channel for news broadcasts and in part because they didn't feel it was appropriate to broadcast such an event when a disaster had happened. Because the Dutch viewers didn't get to see all the entries televoting would not be fair. So the results of the standby jury were used.

[@Gabst3rS]

Latvia should've won!!! The guys are pretty cute :* :D

[@omnibombulator5256]

@TheGoldStandardBoy very true

[@audveltadmuna]

[@172hannon]

Thanks for uploading this. It is a pity we have to put up with Terry Wogan's cynicism. But this is better than nothing.

[@pandzida98765]

5:53-6:20 SHUT UP GRANDPA AND GIVE THE POINTS!!!!!!!

[@ilovelondon66]

1:15 - I hope Eurovision isn't like this this year!

[@ilovelondon66]

[@mariannejensen349]

Am I the only one seeing a green screenpicture here?

[@trambus1144]

yes.

[@JohnPlayer2oo7]

LOOOOOOL... Germany 8 points "Get outta here" :D :D :D

[@dasmysteryman12]

@172hannon No way, Terry Wogan makes Eurovision voting a lot interesting. I miss him. Oh well, at least Graham Norton's good too.

[@FlavioGirl]

what happened in the Netherlands that there was such a tragedy that they couldn't do the televoting?
