Eurovision chaos as fans fume at Graham Norton’s co-host Mel Giedroyc’s blunders
EUROVISION viewers were all left fuming as they hit out at Mel Giedroyc for her antics during the live final.
The star was on commentating duties alongside Graham Norton to cover for him whilst he hosted the main show.
She also made a rather bizarre appearance on-screen which left fans all over the world perplexed.
Many fans hit out at the star as she appeared to make an awkward faux pas by speaking over the top of on-stage host Hannah Waddingham.
During the final, Hannah showed off her language skills by speaking in French.
However, Mel continued to add her commentary over the top leaving fans unable to hear Hannah’s skills.
The 54 year old broke into Hannah’s speech to say: “While Hannah is speaking French, I should let you know that viewers in the UK can vote for your favourite act later in the show by phone and via the EBU’s Eurovision app but you cannot vote by text, put those thumbs away!”
But fans did not take too kindly to her little interuptance.
Online, one fan penned: “Mel Giedroyc talking over Hannah Waddingham while she was speaking French is a faux pas I cannot forgive.”
A second shared: “Still livid that Mel Giedroyc felt the need to speak over what would have been the hottest TV moment of 2023.”
While a third fumed: “No Mel Giedroyc, WE WANT to hear Hannah Waddingham speaking French ffs.”
Later in the evening, she put on a bizarre display as she pulled an odd display of faces whilst sat with the Portugal team.
One fan picked up on her unexpected display as they said: “Mel Giedroyc working the shaft there.”
