Viewers may be sat in shock after hearing that The One Show, which usually airs on BBC One at 7pm Monday through to Friday only, will be broadcasting on Saturday, May 13, at 7.30pm.
That's right. The typically weeknight show will be adding a sixth programme to its schedule for a very special reason. If you haven't been watching this week, the show has been taking place in Liverpool in a studio right next to the M&S Arena where the Eurovision Song Contest 2023 is happening, to provide viewers with all the details, interviews and behind the scenes footage from the event.
The contest is being hosted by the UK for the first time since 1998 on behalf of Ukraine amid the ongoing war in the country with Russia and the grand final will see both the 2022 winner, Ukraine's Kalush Orchestra and runner up Sam Ryder performing at the mass event. And so, as the Grand Final looms, it seems only natural for The One Show to present one more show from the city ahead of the final showcase, in which the winner of Eurovision 2023 will be determined.
