Suzie and Russ from EuroRiffs are back for an off-season Eurovision catch-up. We head to Burgas, Bulgaria, host city of Eurovision 2027, where a giant seagull and a capybara are already competing for our affections; look at the first songs and selections for the inaugural Eurovision Asia; and ask why Japan, China and India are sitting it out. Plus, the EBU is searching for two missing editions of Eurovision, and we discover Queen Elizabeth II apparently loved dancing to ABBA’s Dancing Queen.
