As usual, Terry Wogan cracked us up and the UK entry didn't do so well...

But the question on everyone's lips is: just who was the lucky winner of the 53rd Eurovision Song Contest?

We are ecstatic to tell you that the only Enrique Iglesias lookalike of the competition shot into first place.

Russia's Dima Bilan crooned his way through Believe, writhing around on the floor, singing on his knees and cheesily grinning into the camera.

What a heartthrob.

We were convinced at first that Dima was joined on stage by an ice-skating Boris Johnson.

But after a little research we discovered that it wasn't in fact Boris, but Russian Olympic Gold medallist, Evgeny Plushenko.

He swizzled around the tiny circular rink in a passionate display rivalling Dima's heartfelt singing.

Ukraine came in second for Ani Lorak's sparkling rendition of Shady Lady, and Greece was third - also with a pop chick - singing Secret Combination.

Our own Andy Abraham suffered a devastating blow coming in at joint last alongside Germany and Poland.

Don't worry Andy, you're still a winner in our hearts.
