17 will be ten in the Eurovision song contest first semifinal before Sweden is ready to start in semifinal two on Thursday.
The big pre-favorites in tonight's competition are Ukraine, but also the secret Norwegian duo Subwoolfer who appear disguised in yellow wolf masks have good chances to move on.
Outside the semi-final competition is the "big five" - Italy (which won last year), France, Spain, Great Britain and Germany.
The text is updated during the evening.
