Liverpool's culture chief has explained why it is the "perfect" city to host Eurovision.
Claire McColgan appeared on today's edition of Good Morning Britain after it was confirmed the song contest would be held in the UK next year. The BBC insisted that next year's contest will still have "glorious Ukraine at its heart" and the director of Culture Liverpool said this means Liverpool is the ideal setting.
She said: "We're an UNESCO city of music and the compassion that Liverpool people have means we could fill every part of this city with brilliant music and loads of community work like we do with all our big events.
