With only two weeks to go before the first note is bellowed in Eurovision, or Euro-plus-Australia-vision, the Australian judging panel has been announced. Sadly, Dame Edna Everage is still missing. 
In her place however, Monica Trapaga - singer, writer and Play School host - will chair the Australian contingent and maybe even declare this country's votes in Spanish, for a proper bilingual, Euro touch.
Alongside her will be Shannon Noll, who graduated from the TV school of Australian Idol alongside the man who represented Australia at Eurovision last year, Guy Sebastian, and for a while owned the best known soul patch in Australian music.
TV and radio hosts, Myf Warhurst and James Mathison (who also featured, as host not contestant, in Australian Idol) and producer, composer and engineer Craig Porteils complete the panel.
While Mathison and Warhust are new to Eurovision, Porteils has already contributed to the event, co-writing the Greek entry in 2009.
    While the public has a big role to play in voting, the winners come from a combination of specialist judges and TV viewers, their votes counting for 50 per cent each.   
Australian voters will have their first contribution on   May 13 at 5am, for semi-final two, in which Dami Im will be flying the Australian flag, and then, if she makes it through, in the grand final on   May 15.
Eurovision 2016 will be screened on SBS between   May 11 and 15.
