The most popular presenter of the 90s: Terry Wogan & Ulrika Jonsson

Presenters play a vital part in the Eurovision Song Contest. With 61 editions of the contest we have seen many presenters over the years, all with their different styles.
We will be paying tribute to some of the presenters of the Eurovision Song Contest. Today we travel back in time to the 1990's. We have asked you to vote for your favourite presenter of the 90s. You have voted for many but the battle for number one came down to two couples: Ingvild Bryn & Morten Harket from Norway (1996) and Terry Wogan and Ulrika Jonsson from the United Kingdom (1998). In a close race you've voted most for Terry Wogan and Ulrika Jonsson

[@AndyG13GLA]

RIP to the broadcasting legend that was Sir Terry Wogan. Ulrika was the bomb in the 90's & together they were an unforgettable ESC hosting team.

[@horizons2364]

RIP Terry, you legend.

[@noahbowie5985]

He will be missed. I wish we'd won when he was still alive just so he could host one final time

[@jaradoref]

He died 5 years ago

[@Pepek94]

R.I.P. Terry Wogan

[@Jxw238]

[@r4h4al]

[@hellhightide]

[@ДаниилКараев-и3ф]

michael richard Guys,what has Ulrika said in 4:01-4:06?

[@ДаниилКараев-и3ф]

I Waldron Thanks,I didn't know that.I was trying to listen it again and understand but she said it quickly.

[@peterpan9372]

I can't choose between 2000, 2013 and 2016 Sweden always have the best hosts

Peter Angel you don't have to choose between them because 2009 was the last ESC of the 2000s 😉😉😉

[@sampanyalilokum]

_Düsseldorf 2011_ *vs.* _Stockholm 2016_ Which one?

[@srdjangavrilovic3188]

Umut Can Yıldız For me 2011!!!

[@thelisapisa]

Umut Can Yıldız Anke and Stefan!!!!

[@deryoutuber2.038]

Måns & Petra!

[@Kian-rc7pr]

Umut Can Yıldız That is 2010s they want the best of 2000s

[@Jxw238]

Umut Can Yıldız 100% MÅNS AND PETRA MEDE!!

[@Denis-89]

Petra and Måns are great you guys, but they 2010's. Did you forget the decade before? Not many good ones there, I admit but I liked Sakis & Maria from 2006.

[@SuperJNG18]

There are Eurovision legends, and then there's Terry. One of the great commentators and presenters. RIP.

[@dramaticScar]

Terry Wogan & Ulrika Jonsson I'm glad they are the most popular ... because that's my favourite year of eurovision... Not for the winner or the 3rd place ... but for Croatia, Cyrprus, UK, Germany, Portugal, Estonia, Greece, France, Slovakia, Finalnd, Norway, Belgium and the netherlands ..... all WERE GREAT SONGS

[@cianomalley6394]

Petra , Mans Zelmerlow and Lynda Woodruff

[@Jxw238]

Cian O' Malley thats from 2010 to 2017 they want 2000 from 2009

[@cianomalley6394]

stevan ljustinic oh sorry

[@mallka8390]

Lynda Woodruff is embarrassing.

[@sedam235]

Marie N and guy from Brainstorm group brought in Riga'2003 a great show!! The best hosts!!!!

[@cgfischer]

The female host of 2009's semi finals was so bad that I kinda love her. 😂

[@Bille994]

They were great! Eurovision 1998 is an absolute classic

[@janknes-wiersma2247]

The ones which hosted 2000 in Sweden were awesome. The ones in Tallinn wer awful. I still have headache of the woman's voice. 😂

[@Jxw238]

Jan Knes-Wiersma IK SOOO SQUEEKY

[@noahbowie5985]

Tallinn hosts were terrible as were the Baku hosts in 2012

[@aitorroblesmorillas1386]

Since 2000 until 2009 I prefer the presenters of 2003:Marie Naumova & Renars Kaupers!!!👌👌🔝

[@ggkotsiopoulou]

For the best presenters of the 2000s: 2016 with Måns Zelmerlöw and Petra Mede. ☺And a big thanks and lots of credit to Edward af Sillén for the script and lyrics! 😊😀

[@Jxw238]

ggkotsiopoulou but thats not from 2000 to 2009

[@yougoglencoco08]

I hope Ireland can win again so we can have our commentator Marty Whelan on the stage, he loves it so much it is a great injustice he cannot host. I also hope the UK win again to see Graham Norton host. I couldn't think of a better host. Or even Ant and Dec but I doubt they would want to do it.

[@gamerboi-ag132]

I'd prefer Graham Norton

[@krystlewhite7897]

Please god not Ant and Dec

[@mickeyluv74]

It would be Rylan more like. Really like Graham Norton but not sure about him hosting it. No idea who the other would be.

[@tomasperez5270]

The presenter from 1997 was the best. Professional and doing a really good job!

[@JeSuisRene]

Ronan Keating, or Carrie Crowley? Personally, I really thought that Carrie did a great job during the voting!

[@JeSuisRene]

Where on the voting did Toto and Gigliola (hosts from Rome, 1991) end up?

[@annavilka3808]

Marie N and Renārs Kaupers (ESC 2003)

[@CloudsOfWinter]

Ulrika is a legend and has proved it once again during CBB. One of the best exportations coming from Sweden/UK.

[@julialevelle6384]

The Hungarian guy was sooooooo smooth lol

[@adriankiedos599]

*A Long Time ago, is it?*

[@andrijadjordjevic9584]

From 2000 to 2009 the best hosts in my opinion are: 1. Jaana & Mikko (2007) 2. Kattis & Anders (2000) 3. Masha & DJ Pasha (2005)

[@lgmadrid]

Well, from the recently last years obviously 2011 Anke was the best host so far, but from the 2000 to 2009 I think almost all the couple id host were boring and repetitive. I think the best was 2003 Marie N and the guy and 2007 Mikko and the girl. And of course, the worst, ...so far, were the 2002 couple sooo boring in Tallin terrible voices and nothing special and funny at all.

[@michaelmcr7741]

Serbia 2008 - the best

[@tsya]

Michael McR Sorry, they were too serious.

[@RBenjo21]

Terry and Ulrika proved that you can host a contest without resorting to gimmicks and shouting as all the presenters have done since then.

[@jamest6822]

All? Every single one? Did you watch 2013, 2015, 2016, 2018....and those ones just being from recent memory?

[@berniedu7185]

Ulrika have been totally impolite particularly with the Dutch jury spokeswoman ! Terrible!

[@krystlewhite7897]

BerBer DURET the Dutch lady said she had taken part "long ago" but it was drowned out by the crowd. Ulrika just repeated it in the form of a question. It wasn't meant as an insult.

[@berniedu7185]

Krystle White, Did I say that it was an insult ? Anyway, it was absolutely not nice nor funny at all.

[@jamest6822]

@@berniedu7185 yes, you did. "Totally impolite" to quote directly from your comment.

[@noahbowie5985]

Ulrika had incredible hair when she hosted

[@mariae4123]

She has aged terribly.

[@awmperry]

Who's that narrating this clip? That's a definite Swedish accent there...

[@dominiquegregori3839]

Finland 2006 best hosts

[@eszterszucs3381]

Oh god, the hungarian guy was actually funny :o suprising... it's a shame that I couldn't watch the show, but I was only one year old :D

2003- Marie N and Renars Kaupers

[@carforumwanker]

True story.... In 2019 . Ulrika hooked up with a man in London who is well known in finance . The stories he tells about her are unreal...... She is messed up badly and a total lunatic in bed.Verging on insane and dangerous . He walked away after 48 hours as he could not take the strain of been on edge all the time . He says she needs real help and must have been sexually abused for the last 30 years .

[@loafofbread-theoriginal8369]

HOOOOWS IT GOING EVERYONE? Missed me? No? Fine -.- Anyway, the best presenters were those that didn't want to force their awkward unfunny sketches on the audience. Well i guess there werent any "best" presenters out there really ;)

[@stemourning]

[@dramaticScar]

5:07 I am still to understand why did the crowd reacted that way ... help ?'?'?

[@RBenjo21]

She said she’d been to Eurovision before, and Ulrika said “a long time ago, was it?”, the subtext implying that she’s really old...
