The Eurovision Song Contest is back once again for 2022. The celebration of weird and wonderful musical acts has been running since 1956 and has grown from just seven nations to become a sensation all over the continent.
The final of this year's contest is on Saturday, May 14 and it's TikTok star Sam Ryder who has been tasked with representing the UK this time around. You can find out more about this year's contest, including who is taking part and how to watch it, by clicking here.
The 32-year-old musician from Essex rapidly rose to prominence during lockdown, when he began posting music covers on TikTok, becoming the most followed British artist on the platform by the end of 2020. It is hoped that his song Spaceman will put an end to the UK's horrendous run of form in the contest, having finished bottom in the last two competitions.
