The 61st Eurovision song contest is underway tonight and during his commentary Graham Norton paid tribute to the late Terry Wogan.This is the first contest since his death and so Graham took the opportunity to give a heartfelt tribute to Terry encouraging everyone to raise a glass in his honour.“Now, tonight’s Eurovision is a bittersweet one for all of us. Because of course it’s the first song contest since the death of Sir Terry Wogan.
Well, this is song nine, it’s Frans who is representing Sweden with a song called ‘If I Were Sorry’. So while the crowd here in the Globe Arena cheer on their home boy, I would urge you back in the UK at home to raise a cup, a mug, a glass, whatever you have in front of you and give thanks for the man who was and always will be, the voice of Eurovision. Sir Terry Wogan.
