- The Grand Final of the Eurovision Song Contest was broadcast live on across Europe and the world on May 11th 2024. Here's a look at how a few stations in Europe handled the networked programme, including host broadcaster SVT.
The intro features audio from Dutch broadcaster NPO/AvroTros about the disqualfication of their entry. The outro showcases how Swiss channels SRF and RTS handled their post-shows following the Swiss win.
Big thanks to everyone who contributed footage: Artem, Bruno, David, Gurks, Maks and Nhat. You helped make this possible! - Zábava
Big thanks to everyone who contributed footage: Artem, Bruno, David, Gurks, Maks and Nhat. You helped make this possible! I'll pin this here because I don't want it to be burried in the video description :-)
No problemo! - David
It was nice to contribute to this! I've uploaded the TVP feed on my channel as well if someone's interested :)
Maks from Poland :)
Glad to Help you to compile all of the intros/outros from the Eurovision Final!!
Thanks, or in Portuguese, Obrigado!! - Bruno
Would love to help contribute in any future projects! RTE One from Ireland should be a good addition :)
@@Electrex8 you can email them if you want to submit footage!
RAI actually joining on time? Impossible!
How much longer do we have to suffer this racism? BASTA!
I guess this time they made sure to make a shortened version of their sponsor sting, but even then they did still locally show a few seconds of the stage just to fill in the extra seconds before joining the World Feed..
@@intersezioni It took you 26 mminutes to answer that!?
@@intersezioni It's called gentle ribbing, not racism. The Italians are always slow, the Spanish are always asleep, the French are always smoking and the English are always drunk.
@@robthemodYT basta!
Up to 15 channels now?! Tevebits knows no limits.
I think it's because they allowed some of their subscribers to share partial DVR recordings that just had a few minutes before and after the start and end.
Rts 1 really didn’t want it to end
SRF1 neither, because they are the winner of this edition
the commentator just had so many things to say.
Wait till you saw their reaction where their country win@@moelester7527
@@moelester7527 the commentator was literally saying "ok so we're gonna talk over the ident [...] they're saying we're gonna keep broadcasting after the ident i don't know what we'll be broadcasting, it's sometimes a bit improvised here [...] ok so for now we have a black screen, coul dour colleagues in geneva please tell us what we should do, do we put a slide or...? [...] ok so the image is back, sorry geneva
@@mariobot128 yeah, I was already wondering why he kept on mentioning Geneva, at first I thought they somehow already knew where the next edition would be hosted. I guess what happened was the Geneva MCR at SRG SSR was focusing on controlling the German and Italian broadcasts that they just completely forgot about the French one.
Thanks for highlighting the dutch voiceover!
Yes. But he was talking about how it was no party for us because joost klein got disqualified.
🤨 erm what the sigma

he wAs talking about the disqualifiaction i watched it live and heard it in the video...
@@optify9971 jawel maat dat zei die wel :)
Ah, I see RAI actually got a clock for Christmas last year.
bahahahahahaha
Just before the show on France 2, like last year, we had a 30 min documentary on Malmö and the Swedish 🇸🇪 history and culinary traditions with our beloved Stephane Bern.
Stephane is also one of the co-host animator of Eurovision for FranceTV. That was super interesting !
Thank you for the video Tevebits. Super nice to watch ! 👍
Let's just say he is the Host. Animator in English refer those who work in animation industry.
I love how the French and German-speaking Swiss broadcasters were so excited about the win they kept going, while Italian RSI just immediately cut back to regular programming 😭
That is something the winning broadcaster(s) often get to do. Broadcaster gets the chance for a first reaction. I think it's often the commentators that come downstairs onto the stage. World feed stays open for that a bit. The youtube version of the world feed stopped though, I would not mind seeing it every year, though the issue this year in particular would be that commentators are way more likely to say something spicy on the EBU feed.
SRF and ARD (German channel) actually aired the same program afterwards. So they didn't just stop but it seems the feed provided just cut off there. However, this year none of the commentators got to interview on stage (I do still remember when poor old Peter Urban had to hurry to Lena in 2010). I wonder why. The joined aftershow only had the German commentator interview Kaleen, Isaak and a representative of Switzerland but not Nemo themselves. I guess he was already getting ready for the press conference.
Germany, Austria and Switzerland signed a contract last year to produce their pre- and aftershows together. Which technically is a smart way of saving money but got awkward yesterday in my opinion. The aftershow didn't really balance the win well with the other contestants. Since the host was also German, it felt a lot of the focus was on Germany finally getting out of the last places, and not Switzerland winning the competition. I think for the future, the broadcasters should look at their odds and if one of them is likely to win, they should split up for the aftershow. A joined pre-show is still a good idea and saves money for everyone, as is an aftershow if none of the three countries win.
its what the winning broadcasters do. SVT did it last year. So happy for la Suisse. About time
@@MissDatherinePiercethe Swiss-German commentator Sven Epiney was interviewing Nemo on stage. But it happened on RTS (French speaking) iirc.
@@wbaumnuss3006 so that's why SRF (as well as ARD and ORF) didn't show it. Although I think that is a bit sad tbh. I would have expected the Swiss being prepared for a win and maybe translate what is being said or have all commentators interview them together.
It's always interesting to me as a brit to see the sponsors because 25+ years of watching Eurovision I've never seen a single one (for those who don't know BBC are public funded so cannot show sponsor logos, advertising, etc of any sorts, I believe it is the same case for Das Erste).
Ahah I know right!
Yep. "Das Erste" in Germany is the same. Also public funded. Was surprised to see sponsors on all other channels. Also on "ORF1" in Austria for example. I thought it's also public funded but maybe they have different rules towards ads? "Das Erste" also shows ads but I think there are only a couple of very short slots throughout the day. It's highly regulated.
In Greece, our public broadcaster is literally paid for by everyone through the electricity bill, but they still show ads and the sponsors 🫠
TVP in Poland is also publicly funded, from two sources actually: from the tv/radio licence, by the government support (because many people refuses to pay the tv licence because it’s quite easy to bypass the fee) and also the ads income. Hence TVP also broadcast ads but they cannot insert adbreaks during the show, so at least we get the Eurovision from the very start to the end.
I think the BBC did show them one year. There was definitely a complaint that the BBC was cutting out the reprise of the winning song about halfway through, so they showed the sponsor logos one year (more complaints), then the EBU decided not to start the credits until the reprise was finished, and now the BBC just mask the sponsors instead.
Wonder if the EBU had a word with RAI after last year.
Also, the BBC feed went a bit wrong as initially Graham Norton couldn’t be heard and we heard a bit of the Radio 2 commentary from Scott Mills.
RAI also have been late in semi-finals. Probably EBU started to give a stern warning to not be late for the finale.
@@jomarcentermjm Fun fact, RAI still was late. I only noticed when I was going frame-by-frame.
@@macoud12- But they weren't as late as last year (I think they were 20s late).
@@DitzyNizzy2009 40s
Wow TVP1, thank you. Greatings from Poland
Incredible to see how so many broadcasters from so many countries can sync up their streams in an instant these days. Technology sure is impressive!
BBC had mic problems at the beginning.. randomly! They brought both radio 2 feed and bbc 1 feed at the same time. Rare for them on a big show like this.
But they are the fastest- i am from germany and i have a dish with 2 LNB's , i recive Astra 19,2 and Astra 28,2 and i bought a CI+ Module feom amazon to wath Austrian TV - They are not in sync like this video makes it look like- if i switch from bbc to Das Erste or ORF 1 , i see what ive already seen 3-4 seconds ago on BBC
So this video is basically wrong, he did not followed the actual timecode (i doubt he even had one), he just used the Eurovision intro to line them up.
And no its not my tv, i have 2 tvs and i compared it, i even used an old sky + hd boy (german version, its different than the British one, for example recording is still working even that i dont have a sky contract anymore and it doesnt even has a smartcard inserted) - i saw the same diffrence there between Das Erste and BBC (though i couldn't check orf out bc. sky recivers only support NDS , completely different encryption system)
Maybe i should send you the SBS Australian feed next year, this time we had a video on how to cook swedish meatballs leading into the contest.
I love how everyone else has ads but the BBC, not even morocan oil is there
It's also interesting that Sweden themselves ran a modified version of the sponsors that omitted Baileys. Does the Swedish broadcaster disaprove of alcohol? But they themselves must have been receiving some or all of that sponsor money as the hosts. Also whatever that last sponsor was it was a much simplfied version on the Swedish feed, compared to the long list of logos everywhere else (bar UK) was seeing at that same moment from the main feed.
@@MrDannyDetail In Sweden and the rest of the Nordic countries (excl. Denmark) you can't buy alcohol over a certain strength from regular stores and must buy it from a state owned monopoly. Because of that, it wouldn't surprise me if there is a ban/restriction on the advertising of spirits.
And Das Erste
ARD also skipped over the ads. They also don't show any during the show.
@@MrDannyDetailalcohol advertising ban
Wow! Thank you for listening and adding the Suspilne Culture 🤗❤️
Incredible to see them all come insync
Love these kind of videos, so interesting!! Thanks for including Yle :))
Surprising how many people here are celebrating that Rai 1 was on time for once. I went frame-by-frame. The Ident became visible on their stream at 21:00:01.10 while the animation started at 21:00:00.74. They luckily were only *0.36* seconds late this time!
Amazing 😆 ! I was watching the debut of the ESC finale while thinking about this video !
Proud to finally see TVP in the lineup 😊
I love this channel. It is actually something we can see nowhere else, and for someone interested - it is a real gem... :)
Probably most people are curious of how RSI's feed was black, while SRF was ready, but I can see here how each broadcaster has different laws to follow - like BBC and Das Erste, which do not have any ads at the beginning, nor the end. Wondering if that was the case throughout the whole show? Also how the SVT's version does not contain the Bailey's logo at the end (assuming they cannot advertise alcohol there, but why no suppliers between Riedel and KostaBoda is a mystery for me).
PS: We watched it on CZcams this time, and the end of the stream there contained the SRF's version (of course without the intermediary ads), so seems that they just switched to the same feed as CZcams was on.
Cool to see RTP here! Thank you for the video. Now, who kept talking through the eurovision outro??
Genevian Swiss (RTS)
For once we're the first ones to join the feed!
Rai's your broadcaster, right? Using the World Feed for reference, you still were late. 0.36 seconds though, which is an improvement over the second semifinal.
Wow Rai 1 didn't mess up this time lmao
They still were late, they just weren't as late. 0.36 seconds if my calculations and frame-counting are correct.
actually every year the intro delays for 0.36 secomds like that, so we were actually early
Thank you for ading RTP1! Im so happy that you see my coment!
Thank you (tevebits and all their collaborators across Europe) for co-operating on this video. It's really interesting to see how the different broadcasters prepare and follow the programme. And great to see the moment when all the different countries join together to sing and laugh together!
Rai were in the arena already and were still 1 second late!
Rounding up? I counted 0.36 seconds from when the ident animation actually started.
Regarding Germany's ARD/Das Erste coverage, I should mention that the preceding few minutes before Eurovision was given to "Das Wort zum Sonntag" (The word for Sunday)
It is the second longest-running program on German television, A commentary slot in which current-affairs and issues are presented through a religious perspective.
The slot airs every Saturday primetime after the late-evening news whilst Eurovision sees it bumped up to either just before the liveshow (as seen in this video) or as part of ARD's preshow coverage.
This past week, 'Das Wort zum Sonntag' marked its 70th anniversary on television.
Thanks for adding TVP!
Nice vid, would like to see one with formula 1 soon!
Yes Rai 1 finally doing the intro in time for once!! Finally the world can have peace knowing it lmao
I love that most countries go into the Moroccan oil ad after the show has finished and the UK goes into talking stockmotiom pigeons 😂
The BBC is a non commercial channel so won't show the ad, plus did you notice it cut out all the sponsors on the end credits
@@davidoverfield4912 Same for "Das Erste" from Germany.
Everyone cutting to a Moroccan Oil ad while the BBC gave us some talking pigeons 😅
I love how France 2 still has its own credits (though this time, the credits are a bit less overwhelming compared to last year).
Interesting that ARD/Das Erste skipped over the sponsorship section of the credits. Btw I wish you also had a feed of ONE, a sub-channel of ARD. They had a banner with the funniest/best Twitter comments and have been doing this for at least ten years now.
Nice, no one didn't making mess around at intro. And for outro everything works perfectly, but there's something interesting, SRF and RTS continued to broadcast after show, meanwhile RSI end the broadcast like others.
Me at 0:30: Ah, Italians. Never change.
Me at 0:32: WHAT?!?! Rai joined ON TIME?!
That aside, seriously love this compilation from not only the typical Western European countries (including BBC, the only one which will never have a logo bug or sponsors) but even two Slavic countries for a change, which otherwise we never see!
That said, I feel a few more broadcasters from Western Europe would be nice too. Perhaps include them in a separate video next time: RTVE (Spain) - I found it funny that you included RTP but not RTVE (since Spanish channels use the bottom right corner for their bug - plus VRT (Belgium), DR (Denmark) and NRK (Norway) for their clean, minimalist Nordic design, which the host broadcaster SVT showed this time.
And finally: congratulations to Schweiz/Suisse/Svizzera/Switzerland for the win! I believe @tevebits might be Swiss too!
Nope, still late. Just got really close.
Germany also didnt have sponsors :D
Thank you for NPO 1!
No problem!
again, you're welcome for the svt recording :)
Thanks for putting my country Portugal
ah darn if i knew that this was going to be put together i would've captured some footage from our national tv channel in estonia
i love this stuff
I'm very glad that you made sure to include the champion country of Switzerland, and at least one other Nordic broadcaster from the neighbor country of Finland (one of the two, the other one close to Malmö would be Denmark). I also love how the RTS commentator carried on talking for so long at the end of the broadcast that they just decided to leave the World Feed's black screen on instead of switching right away. see y'all next year for Eurovision Song Contest Lausanne 2025!!
Lausanne won't be able to host ESC, but more than happy to see it back in Switzerland!
@@froome05 I guess it will either be Lugano or just the capital city of Bern.
@@moelester7527 is Zürich not an option as well?
@@MissDatherinePierce How about Geneva?
@@user-zo4mj8oo1t I always forget about them but true. That might also be a good option. Can't wait to see with what city Switzerland will go in the end. It probably truly depends on the arena, hotel rooms and infrastructure each city can provide in the given time frame.
Rai1 not messing up this time is actually surprising!
Thank you for highlighting the Dutch commentary. As they did what the live show hosts refused to do.
'Welcome to the 68th Eurovision Song Contest in Sweden, Malmö, where it happened before in 1992 en 2013 and both times the Netherlands placed 9th. And I wish I could say that this year we will do better with Joost Klein, as he will definitely place higher than 9th place, but unfortunately, no final, not the party we hoped for. The European Broadcasting Union decided for disqualification based on an incident.'
Why would they?
Those who care, already knew and those that don't, wouldn't care if they didn't talk about it
00:52 The first to be heard was Jean-Marc Richard from RTS... He's been hosting the ESC for a long time on RTS
And at 01:34 We can hear the RTS group talk again since they are the winners
Intresting to see that SVT had different sponsors at the end, despite being the host broadcaster.
They never have different sponsors, they just have less sponsors
And here I thought Moroccanoil was some sort of petrol company.
magico la rai in orario, non ci posso credere
I love how Finland built up to it by showing the qualification announcement! They know how to get their audience pumped
I think I asked last time but where do you source the World Feed from?
I'm wondering too, it's a bit weird since the CZcams livestream includes sponsors, unlike the feed used by tevebits. Maybe it's a free DVB-S channel?
Backhaul raw satellite feed recordings, captured from Eutelsat 10A
9pm to almost 1am in CEST = 2am until 6am in Vietnam.
Wow, Maybe someone in Vietnam watched Eurovision until Breakfast news start at 6.
Nimmst du immer den ganzen ESC auf den Sendern auf oder nur Anfang, Ende und Werbung? Und selbst wenn es nicht so wäre: Großer Respekt!
Yes, they did a similar video for both the semi final this year, and also the final of last year 2023 edition.
@@CitronCassis Ah, ok 👌
Can we please see a 15 way ad break video? 😍
I was looking at different channels and was surprised to see Kosovo also playing the contest on their main channel
0:50 fun to hear that the only broadcast where they keep talking is the NPO, because the commentator spends the most of the time he has to explain why it's outragous we got disqualified, hahaha
En terecht ook!
oh en ook nog: bij de NPO feed is de volume hoger gedaan zodat mensen het kunnen horen
@@idontdrawartagain definately not
@@Gfynbcyiokbg8710 definitely yes.
Now I wanna see how they insert commercials. Surely it'll be funny for Italy to air the news until Italy gets its points from the juries.
Stop making fun of Italy, wash your mouth before mocking a nation you don’t even know anything about.
@Mario-uw9ip Eh I wasn't trying to be offensive, I was just trying to assume what a country is doing based on last year's experience.
Nope, last year it was RSI (Swiss tv in italian) that aired the news. And this year, all the ad breaks on Rai 2 and Rai 1 were perfectly coordinated!
1:10 You noticed? Only in Ukraine there is a sign language interpreter for people with hearing impairments. Truly Europe!
❤See graphic on BBC One at 0:50
Rai also streamed his sign language version on RaiPlay. Italian people with hearing impairments just know that "Rai Pubblica Utilità" (Rai division for accessibility) always provides the sign language stream on their platform for big events like Eurovision or Sanremo.
I also wonder which broadcasters apart from orf 1 have audio description?
❤️ Also Rai provided his sign language version on RaiPlay!
@@ObjectPresents you're referring to 777? Subtitles are not sign language. And if talking about 779, audio description is also not sign language
Is there a way to see live the international feed without passthrough by local channels?
Really hope that the Peacock feed included here. I also noticed that the CZcams feed streamed in 30 fps while the European TV broadcast in 60 fps. CZcams has a 60 fps live stream option, why it didn't worked?
European TV broadcast is actually 50 fps because it is PAL. But unfortunately, CZcams doesn't support 25 and 50 on live streams so instead of it 30 and 60 are used respectfully. This year 30 fps was used because the whole contest was produced in 25 fps, and it is only SVT's decision.
Why is no one talking about the Rai presemtator saying "Allacciate le cinture, si parte!" (fasten your seatbelts, off we go) È TROPPO BELLO
RAI made it!
Also, fun bit of trivia, but Graham Norton's microphone had some issues during the opening of the contest.
What's up with RTS going blank?
It's common practice at the Eurovision finale for the feed to open up again after the ident and a few seconds of black. This is done exactly to allow winning countries to air the first interview with their artists. It seems RTS forgot about the black screen.
Thank you for including Suspilne 🫂
Greetings from Ukraine! 🤝
Wait Rai1 was actually early???!!! Shocking!
Thank God the world is still in order. Italy joined almost half a second too late.
despite the fact that the broadcast ended, SRF 1 continued to comment
Because they are the winner for this year...and Das Erste also did a bit I think?? If you look carefully, you can see that after the show, Das Erste and the SRG SSR channels (except RSI La 1) did a bit interview with Nemo as Swiss fans celebrates!
(If you wondering why Das Erste decided to join in the fun, I think it's because German is the most spoken language in Switzerland! Due to this, if you go to Switzerland, you can watch some German channels as well, including "Ersten"!)
actually, I watched this whole video for the 4th time
I don't speak Dutch, but I can feel the pain of the Dutch moderator.
Pretty much, they said that joost klein got disqualified and that they're saddened about it.
SVT1, didn't show the Bailey's logo. Also on the France 2, it showed Baileys on the sponsors in the credits, isn't alcoholic drinks adverting banned in France?
I'm not sure to what extent Swedish law would allow SVT to advertise alcohol. SVT is publicly owned and funded, and Swedish law is extremely strict on how alcohol is to be advertised completely. As such for example most beer ads I've ever seen on TV here have been for non-alcoholic beer.
And the BBC lack of showing any sponsors at all.
Yes, except if these drinks are alcohol free
How is the source feed actually distributed to the stations? Is it via satellite or over the internet?
I’m not personally sure but a useful clue might be that the local commentators are usually in the arena during the event so that would suggest there is less processing on the domestic side then there would be for sports or news broadcasts. That said I’m not a broadcast expert just a production geek so I could be totally wrong
Satellite feed, same for when it is distributed to the national juries the day before.
The EBU feed is delivered both via satellite and the EBU’s very own FINE fibre network. Members have to book it in advance.
0:08 What does "ORF TELETEXT 779" mean? I don't know much about European broadcasting yet, so I'm asking you a question. Thank you for the good video
Teletext is an alternate "channel" on television that shows you written information and other options like the option to activate subtitles (if the program itself doesn't have them by default) and also has some weird stuff like dating chats. It was invented in the 70s and a lot of countries have stopped using it. You access it by the number presented at the beginning of every show, in this case 779
@@diogodavid3557 Thank you for your answer, the country where I live is not a country where Teletext was very active, so it was difficult to find the data, but I find out thanks to you.
Justice for Joost!
As for me along with my fellow US citizens, we were tuned in to the final through the streaming service Peacock.
RAI A LITTLE BIT LATER BUT STILL ON TIME OMG
How did you make This multiviewer
Chaos, Sync aand back to Chaos ❤😂
Keşke Türkiye'de TRT yayınlasa. Onuda şimdi burada görürdük. Ama Eurovision'a katılmadığımız için yayında yok.
I'm in the US and didn't want to pay the Peacock subscription fee so I managed-with less effort than I imagined-to find an IPTV stream that wasn't geo-locked. Otherwise, I just would've listened to the radio streams, since they seemed to forget geo-locking. I'm not sure I should point out which IPTV stream, though, I don't want them figuring out and locking it for next year!
The whole thing is on CZcams. You could have watched CZcams and listened to the radio commentary from any of the English-language broadcasters (BBC, RTÉ or RTL).
@@linmanfu913 the full shows on CZcams are geoblocked, they can't be watched from the US, Chile, Brazil and Australia. Broadcasters there have bought the full rights
@@linmanfu913 ESC's CZcams is geoblocked for US viewers. SVT Play and RTP Play usually don't geoblock so they're a solid option.
@@linmanfu913 The CZcams stream, like most of the crucial videos on the ESC channel, are geoblocked in the U.S, which is why the user above went through the hoops to begin with.
Yeah, it was pretty easy. I already had the stream available to me. And each stream has its own delay, so watching the IPTV stream while listening to RTÉ's or RNE's radio stream wasn't really working.
Hello from Greece🇬🇷! If you want to put the Greek national channel ERT 1 hd, ERT 2 hd in a video.
wheres RTVE :(

Are you doing a video with ads this year?
Unfortunately, I won't be able to do it this year.

Honestly would be interesting to include Belgium.
Apparently VRT (Flemish TV) had a message from the trade union protesting against the inclusion of Israel inserted before the ESC started.
@@linmanfu913 I was going to comment that! Other broadcasters should do that though, let us end this conffict
@@linmanfu913 Even better: they displayed the same trade union broadcast OVER the closing Eurovision bumper at the end of the contest. Absolutely stellar to see the message again, now with the "Ode an die Freude" played over it.
No RTS feed? 😭🇷🇸
No VRT? :/
When RTVE?
No TVE from Spain?
It would be cool if you also included the youtube stream
he did
The world feed technically is the CZcams stream.
Joost disqualification felt differently... 😢
Spain isn’t on the list 😣 I’ll record next years Spanish Eurovision live feed 😋
Woah
Surprised that NPO 1 is in this, especially after what happened with the participant who landed in trouble with the organisers, hopefully AVROTROS (the programme makers) and the national organisers take some lessons for next year for wherever in Switzerland will host in 2025.
AvroTros still has to broadcast it because of a contract, they even said it in the intro
As stated they had to because of the contract & Cornald Maas was properly salty about it.
Shocker: RAI joining on time 🤣
Das nen' ich mal "Gleichschaltung" der Medien! 😂
Where is HRT
Where are the Norwegian channels?
I will upload the footage from NRK1 soon
Hi sorry but I couldnt get the footage from NRK1 but I saw it. They just normally started the ESC like the other TV Channels too
wheres the TVP1 footage from?
i thinks it's either from the TVP GO livestream or from the DVB-T2 broadcast
As mentioned on the endcard and in the video description, there were some lovely people around Europe who recorded certain channels and sent the footage in. For Poland, my thanks go to Maks!
Maks here, the recording person 😉
I’ve managed to record the DVB-T2 feed of TVP1.
