And The Winner of Eurovision 2015 Is...

Did you tune in?

Despite Ireland not being involved in this year’s Eurovision final, most of the country was gripped by events happening in Vienna this evening.

It was Sweden who were crowned overall winners after a nerve-wracking results show, where they just beat Russia to the title.
