Jüri Pootsmann

What is the next natural step when you have won Pop Idol, gotten a song from legendary Stig Rästa and won both the jury and the televote in the Estonian national selection? Well, finishing dead last in the semifinal of Eurovision, of course! Or maybe not, but that is the way it happened for young Jüri Pootsmann in 2016. How could this happen? How did it affect his career? Why the Bond theme? What were the struggles with Swedish Television? What happened to the act? Who gave him flowers? Which famous Swedish Melodifestivalen artist comforted him after the loss? What did Jüri himself think about all this and why didn't he say something? The questions are many, and they will be answered in this episode, where Jüri shows us that the loss didn't hit him very hard and that he nowadays can joke about it.
