Julia Sanina's Eurovision knockback, judge's spot, and new role as host

Julia Sanina will co-host Liverpool's Eurovision Song Contest in May.

She will bump shoulders with three other industry professionals to create "the fab four" - Britain's Got Talent panelist Alesha Dixon, West End superstar actress Hannah Waddingham, and the UK's staple Eurovison commentator, Graham Norton.

Zoe Ball broke the news on her BBC Radio 2 breakfast show with fans quickly rallying around the choices. Julia will inject Ukranian life into the contest, with Eurovison's 2017 presenter, Timur Miroshnychenko, as the Eurovision Correspondent in Liverpool, appearing throughout the shows plus giving live insights from Ukraine’s commentary box in the Liverpool Arena.
