And the winner is!
Each year, Australia holds a Eurovision weekend from Friday to Sunday where the First and Second Semi Finals are shown culminating in the Final show on Sunday evening. During the Final the Australian public get their chance to televote for their winner.
Although Australia cannot vote in the actual Eurovision Song Contest, each year the public do televote to decide their winner and in 2011 there are some surprise results :-
Ireland 8350
Greece 7120
Serbia 4429
Bosnia & Herzegovina 4150
Moldova 3397
Hungary 2862
Sweden 2521
Denmark 2097
United Kingdom 1339
Ukraine 1338
Finland 1308
Romania 1205
Iceland 1061
Russia 982
Italy 935
Germany 922
Estonia 820
Slovenia 757
France 576
Austria 483
Georgia 473
Spain 456
Switzerland 356
Lithuania 262
Azerbaijan 245
So, Europe's winner is Australia's least favourite song of all. Other marked differences in the voting patterns see the actual runner up Italy only in 15th place and Serbia faring much better with the Australian public than the European.
Ultimately, the Australian public decided that Jedward from Ireland was their favourite entry with a clear distance between first and second place.

Lena Meyer-Landrut (born May 23, 1991 in Hannover) is a German singer and the winner of Eurovision Song Contest 2010.
Lena emerged as the winner of the German ESC talent show contest “Unser Star für Oslo” (Our Star for Oslo) on March 12, 2010. The victory entitled her to represent Germany at the Eurovision Song Contest 2010 with the song “Satellite”, written by the American-Danish songwriter duo Julie Frost and John Gordon. She eventually went on to win the contest, receiving 246 Points in the final on 29 May 2010.
“Satellite”, “Bee” and “Love Me” (co-written by her and German producer Stefan Raab), occupied the first three places on the German iTunes Store sales chart on the day after the national final.
(Also, if you like Lena, I presume you'll fancy downloading the Eurovision 2010 album here)
