Rylan Clark and Scott Mills will present BBC Radio 2's coverage of the Eurovision Song Contest final, it has been announced. The two presenters and Eurovision superfans will bring "insightful and colourful commentary" to coverage of the 2023 event, the BBC said.
It will be the first time since 1988 that Ken Bruce has not covered the event for the station, following his move to Greatest Hits Radio earlier this year. The competition will take place in Liverpool after the UK was chosen to host the competition on behalf of war-torn Ukraine. Semi-finals will take place on Tuesday, May 9, and Thursday, May 11, with the grand final at the Liverpool Arena on May 13.
Radio 2 will also be broadcasting the two Eurovision semi-finals for the first time, with shows hosted by Paddy O'Connell. Following the announcement, Clark said he was "absolutely buzzing" to be hosting the BBC Radio 2 grand final coverage.
