Sweden Tipped To Win Eurovision

Whether you love it or hate it- it's Eurovision time again!

2008 already has a Eurovision front runner: Sweden has been tipped to the top in a Europe-wide BBC vote.

Charlotte Perrelli, and her song Hero, went straight to the top of the poll ahead of Ukraine, Switzerland and host nation Serbia.

The UKs prediction seemed to reflect their tradition in the competition- our entry Andy Abraham polled only enough votes to finish in 33rd place in a field of 43 songs!

The first semi-final is taking place tonight in Belgrade, and the grand final is on 24th May.
