Mike Graham and Virgin Radio's Steve Denyer discuss the controversies surrounding the Eurovision Song Contest 2024, including the over-sexualization of performers and the lack of attention given to female acts.

Steve Denyer argues that the event has become too controversial and that the BBC should rethink its approach for coverage, while Mike Graham suggested moving the contest to BBC Three. The conversation highlighted the perceived bias towards certain countries and the need for a more inclusive and respectful approach to the event.
