Eurovision 2026: Final of song contest kicks off in Vienna

• The UK’s Eurovision 2026 entry Look Mum No Computer will face off against Israel’s controversial delegate and favourite-to-win Finland in the Eurovision grand final this year.
• In recent days, Australia has emerged as another major contender - with questions over protocol if the country should take a historic victory. Although the country didn’t make the final in 2025, Delta Goodrem and her song Eclipse are among the favourites to win.
• All eyes will be on the UK’s entry, real name Sam Battle, to see if he can save the nation from a recent string of dismal results, or if he’ll go crashing out with another dreaded nul points score.
• Controversy continues over Israel’s participation, with entry Noam Bettan booed as he performed during the first semi-final and five countries withdrawing from the contest in protest.
• Viewers can tune in on BBC One and BBC iPlayer, with Graham Norton providing commentary.
