00:00This is where most of the commentators are tucked away in these little boxes.
00:11Let's take a peek inside. Here is Iceland and the commentator for Iceland is Gvedrun.
00:17Hello Gvedrun. Hello Sandra and hello Europe.
00:22I hear that 96% of the population in Iceland is watching the Eurovision Song Contest. That's crazy.
00:28Yeah, that is crazy. We love Eurovision. There's absolutely nobody on the streets right now except people that are running late for a party.
00:34And I heard on the news today that the chips and the snacks they're selling fast in the stores right now because we're preparing for Saturday.
00:43Wow, I love Iceland. I have to come to your country.
00:45You have to come.
00:46Can I say hello to your audience? Because I prepared a little thing. Let me try.
00:50Cairo Island thinker wird älskum geisena ichker eia fjatla jäkkur och aust ichker au Eurovision.
00:59How was that?
01:00It was perfect. Wow. Thank you very much. Thank you. Bye bye. Have a good show.
01:05So next door is Denmark and the commentator for Denmark is Ole. Hello Ole. Hello.
01:12This is such a lovely box you have here decorated with so many nice pictures. Can you tell me something about them?
01:18Do you know what? I love Eurovision and this is my greatest moments from the last 25 years as a super fan and as a commentator.
01:27Do you have any favorite picture in here?
01:30I have a lot but one picture means a lot to me and that's the picture with me and Liz Aschia, the first winner of Eurovision in 1956.
01:40Yes, the first Eurovision and the Swiss winner.
01:42Yeah, exactly.
01:43That's so cool. That's amazing.
01:44Shall we take a picture together?
01:45Yeah.
01:46Yes, I would love it. You have to send it to me. Yeah. Great. Thank you very much Ole and have a great show.
01:53So here comes the box for the Swiss commentator, German speaking commentator and this is the voice for the French speaking audience.
02:02This is Jean-Marc Richard and he's done this job for 34 years already. My gosh, I think no one has done this as long as you have.
02:11And this is your last Eurovision this year. Wow. What's your favorite memory of all this time?
02:16I have so many pictures in my head but maybe Mill Street Town, 1993, the contest took place in the Equestria and Arena and we were so very close, the public, to the artists, to the horses too.
02:33But you know, Sandra, for me tonight is very emotional. For the first time and kind finally say,
02:40Bienvenue chez moi. Bienvenue en Suisse. Bienvenue à Baal. Bienvenue dans mon pays. Bienvenue pour le concours Eurovision de la chanson.
02:48C'est absolument génial. Félicitations encore une fois, Jean-Marc Richard. And then I would say we go back to Hazel. Thank you so much, Jean-Marc.
03:03Thank you so much.
