Paul O’Grady to make posthumous appearance in Eurovision short film

Paul O'Grady will make a posthumous appearance in a short film set to appear at the Eurovision Song Contest. The film will feature a host of stars and mark the opening of the competition.

The late comedian and TV host was originally from Birkenhead, in Merseyside, close to Liverpool where this year's contest is being held. He took part in the short film to show his pride in his home region.

The project is one of the last things O'Grady filmed before his death on March 28. He was 67 years old when he died. His appearance has been approved by his family and friends.
