Austrians were on Sunday celebrating JJ, an Austrian-Filipino countertenor lauded for “singing Austria into the spotlight” after bringing home the country’s first Eurovision song contest victory in 11 years with a song that gives a nod to both the country’s rich operatic heritage and modern music.

JJ, 24, hit all the right notes with Wasted Love, an operatic ballad about unrequited love that mutates into a techno club anthem. The 69th edition of the contest was hosted in Basel, Switzerland.

Task of bringing together 38 disparate players begins at Richmond hotel with kit to be collected and friends to be made

When the definitive history of the British & Irish Lions tour this summer is written, there may be a special place reserved for Ted’s coffee van. Taking up position in the car park of the Richmond Hill hotel, here was a focal point, a leafy suburban equivalent of a water cooler around which Andy Farrell’s men could break the ice.

Up on the hill, overlooking the Thames, with local artists tending their watercolours next to the house Ronnie Wood once owned, it was all a far cry from the cut and thrust of a Test series in Australia but, in-keeping with the Lions’ serene buildup, 10 days after Farrell named a squad that was low on controversy the tourists gathered for the first time.
