After an exciting but yet again somewhat predictable Contest, Azerbaijan has won the 2011 Eurovision Song Contest.
Ell/Nikki with the song "Running Scared" received a total of 221 points & took the title & the honour of hosting the contest in Azerbaijan in 2012.
The UK's hope's of winning the contest were in the hands of Blue, & after a promising lead along with France in many of the polls, failed miserably coming 11th place with 100 points, although this was the best placing in recent years apart from 2009 in Moscow when Jade Ewen finished 5th.
I'm sure we are all looking forward to next year's contest in anticipation already, & I'm sure Azerbaijan will have a lot to offer.
From Dusseldorf 2011, & from the Press Centre here in the Esprit Arena, good night & goodbye till next year.
