Eurovision 2021: UK dealt crushing blow as James Newman favourite to finish last

“It was emotional, comforting and optimistic, which are really the qualities of the best Eurovisions.”

Sharing his thoughts on the UK entry, he added: “James Newman has done a great job with the UK entry this year. 

“Embers is such a striking image for where we are. All the friends and family we haven’t seen but the embers are still glowing ready to catch alight once again. 

“Hopefully the Eurovision audience will embrace that idea and the song and we’ll do well!

The Eurovision Song Contest Grand Final airs on BBC One on Saturday at 8pm.
