Social media sensation Sam Ryder has been confirmed as the UK’s Eurovision entrant and he says he is not going to let the spectre of last year’s disastrous “nil points” score get to him.
The 31-year-old star, who rose to fame on TikTok, has 12 million followers on the video platform and big-name support including Sia and Alicia Keys.
But he has his work cut out. In the past two decades the UK has come last five times, including James Newman last year.
