Is she still a star on the continent?

Not for the last 20 years.

On a more insidious note, fancy RTK to put a foot in the door. They're certainly not wasting time are they.

But it is encouraging to see Belgium being brought together for this event.

Crikey. If they showed this in the UK there would probably be a revolution.

Well it's not on either of the Danish channels either tonight, nor on Germany's ZDF which is showing tis usual batch of Saturday night 'Krimis', so it's not a very accurate list of participating broadcasters.

where can one see the full list of participating artists in tonight's show?

Finland's YLE is not broadcasting it tonight- maybe there might be a recorded telecast later but who knows. After a 12-year membership Finland's initial mad enthusiasm about the EU seems to have cooled down, thankfully.
