BBC Eurovision's Rylan Clark stunned to silence by voting bombshell

Rylan Clark was stunned into silence by the voting in Saturday's Eurovision final, with him declaring to fans that he 'couldn't deal,' with what was happening.

Former X Factor star and Celebrity Big Brother star Rylan had been in the thick of the Eurovision Song Contest action all week, having hosted the semi finals on BBC Three alongside Scott Mills on Tuesday and Thursday. A Graham Norton took the reins for the final, Rylan got to enjoy the event, with cameras capturing him and former Strictly contestant Scott just before Sam performed Space Man near the end of the Eurovision final running order.

After all 25 performances were done and the interval entertainment, including last year's Eurovision winners Maneskin and Eurovision host and Grace Kelly singer Mika was done with, Eurovision fans across the world held their breath for the result. And no one could quite believe what was happening as Sam got the coveted 'douze points' from a number of countries, helping him to top the leaderboard after the jury votes.
