UK’s Look Mum No Computer met with scathing Eurovision reviews

• The UK's Eurovision Song Contest entry, Look Mum No Computer (Sam Battle), received fierce backlash from viewers who branded his performance as one of the country's "worst ever".
• Performing his electronic-pop song "Eins, Zwei, Drei" in Vienna, Battle wore a pink boiler suit and danced with performers in fluffy headwear, prompting criticism for being "bonkers" and "shameful".
• Social media users joked that the performance might prevent the UK from rejoining the EU and predicted a last-place finish for the country.
• Despite bookmakers placing him at 80/1 odds to win, Battle expressed his contentment with being an "underdog" and hoped his full performance would surprise audiences.
• The UK, as a "Big Four" country, automatically qualified for the final, continuing its struggle to secure a win since 1997, with only Sam Ryder in 2022 coming close.
