This year the show will be split into two shows, a semi-final and a final. 14 Countries [listed below] automatically qualify for the final - the remaining countries will battle it out on Weds 12th May and the top ten will go through to the ultimate final. Any questions?

Eurovision On Location
There will be 2 shows on location from Turkey presented by GMTV's Lorraine Kelly and Liquid News' Paddy O' Connell. Included in the mix will be a preview of some of the best songs for 2004.

A Little Bit More...
Following the live show on BBC One you'll need to flick the button over to BBC Three where Lorraine Kelly will be presenting from London. Meanwhile Paddy O'Connell will be reporting live from Istanbul. Can he be any more sarcastic than Terry Wogan? There's only one way to find out...

Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Iceland, Ireland, Norway, Poland, Romania, Russia, Spain, Sweden, Turkey & United Kingdom
