Eurovision slang referring to the second place on the contest's running order. Participants competing on this spot are likely to go unnoticed by the public, hence making it improbable for them to qualify (from a semi-final) or win.
Austria was the last country to qualify for the final from the death spot, and that was six years ago.
God saved us from the death spot this year, we may have a chance this time!
