LAST NIGHT, THE first Eurovision semi-final took place with 18 countries vying for 10 places in Saturday’s final.

Among those showcasing their wares was Estonia’s representative Juri Pootsman.

Juri sang a little number called Play, but sadly failed to progress to the final. (The song wasn’t much craic, to be fair.)

As soon as Juri stepped out on stage, loads of Irish people had the same reaction…

Is that Ryan Tubridy?
