The public voted for the double act in Friday night's BBC4 show Eurovision: You Decide – so this year, whatever happens, it's all on us, OK?

The act weren't the hot favourites before the night, but clearly struck a chord with at least some of the voting public. So, amazingly positive response on Twitter right?

Uhh, not exactly.

1. Some people were definitely excited.

2. However, others thought we'd made a terrible, terrible mistake.

3. With great power comes great responsibility after all...

4. Some couldn't help pointing out that this isn't the first time we've had a chance to vote for these boys.

5. Seems it wasn't just viewers at home. Check out the distraught lad in the front row shaking his head.

6. But don't be ridiculous. If we're to stand any chance, we've all got to get behind our act, right?
