Last night saw the final of the Eurovision Song Contest and, as you'd expect, it was every bit as weird as we've come to expect in recent years.

Justin Timberlake performed during the interval, as well as a catchy musical number about to write a Eurovision song, however the real focus of interest on the night was on Twitter. It's been confirmed that over seven million tweets were sent during last night's final, smashing the previous record from last year.

This year also saw the final being broadcast on Chinese and US television for the first time, and was the second year of Australia's involvement. Australia came perilously close to winning, however Ukraine pulled ahead of both Australia and bitter rivals Russia to claim the title with their song, 1944.

So, what happened on the night? Well...
