Semi-final 1: Jury rehearsal tweet blog
Felix was tweeting live from the arena during tonight’s semi-final dress rehearsal, which will also form the basis for the juries’ votes. This post rounds up all his tweets in a handy place – and don’t forget to follow us on Twitter if you don’t already, of course!
We're in the hall for the jury final of semi 1! So far the hosts' script is… not amazing. #Eurovision #AllAboard

So far the hosts can be described as Karin Falck meets Ingvild Bryn meets Masha, multiplied by four. #Eurovision #ESC2018

As expected from the artists' social feeds in recent months, the postcards feature them each emerging into Portugal through a standalone door #Eurovision #ESC2018

Interesting nerdy observation: Unlike the screens in the arena for the audience, the green room screens for the artists do *not* have the "not for publication" watermark on them 😊#Eurovision #ESC2018

Eugent nails the vocals, Sennek a bit shrieky, Mikolas moving well within the obvious constraints. #Eurovision #juryfinal

Estonia gets a stellar reaction for a stellar performance. Easily the standout so far, overshadowing scratchy-voiced Alekseev and nondescript Equinox on either side. #Eurovision #juryfinal

We would be tweeting more but we're still traumatised from the greenroom host asking Alekseev if his hand is better, then Alekseev *PLUCKING A ROSE FROM HIS BACK* and giving it to her 😮😮😮😮

Finland got a good response, anyway; Ireland was fine; Austria possibly better at earlier rehearsals? Oh, and Switzerland was our toilet break. (Sorry.) #Eurovision #juryfinal

And to end, Cyprus is flawless, at least in the hall. Big applause. Maybe the biggest? All we can say to that is: YEAH, YEAH, FUEGO.

Reprise confirms biggest applause for Cyprus, with Israel/Czech Rep/Finland next. Probably as we expected! And on to our interval: #Eurovision 2017 artists singing "Amar pelos dois"

Equinox and the Bulgarian team are the only ones in the greenroom to be up and dancing and having a good time during the second reprise. Party animal alert! #Eurovision #juryfinal

We are not the only people this week to need the translation. Thank you! https://t.co/Se9qzDYKRh
