There is something a bit volatile about hosting a big live show like 'Eurovision.' Anything could literally happen.

For me, Christmas was always about presents. As a child, we each had an allotted place in the sitting room for the ceremonial unwrapping and mine was perched beside the telly on a Moroccan pouffe. We would watch our mum with bated breath as she divided up the gifts.

Eurovision' lifts you off your feet - and, by that, I mean the absolute joy, total insanity and madness of the whole thing.
