UK Eurovision entry 2026

I think we will definitely win with this LOL

Well I tried watching it, but my brain gave up less than half way through. Expecting nul points on this one!

Aw, I think it's quite fun. But then I'm biased and any subtly anti-Brexit song is going to win my vote!

Oh dear. Is this really our entry? Were there no other contenders?

It's different and we do need to try something different as our usual strategy is not working!!

DP is friends with Look Mum No Computer so we are hoping he wins 😂 it'll be the first time DP will watch Eurovision.

"Send someone called Sam in a jumpsuit" appears to be the strategy.

I love it! Very Europop and very catchy - I'm still singing eins, zwei, drei hours later. Fingers crossed - but I feel that nil point for us has become part of the tradition of Eurovision.

Tbh it's not a terrible strategy cos this ain't as bad as a lot of other recent entries.

Hmmm. That is all.

Well we can’t win singing our own language so we might as well try singing German for a few extra points 😂

Have to say I really love it! I’ve listened to it a few times and it’s super catchy and funny. Also the chap seems interesting.

Good way to court the German vote 😆

I love it, very different, but really reminiscent of the synth pop of my youth

I think it could do well!!! The staging could be amazing so they need to put the effort in there.

ultimately Sam Ryder did well because he really leant in to it and travelled around doing interviews etc. didn’t think it was all beneath him which the Uk can often do

bit ultimately the voting is so political it will probably compete with Germany for the nil point

I like it, it's fun, silly, and pro-European, which is perfect for Eurovision. And Austria are the hosts this year too, so why not include a bit of German. I think we stand a decent chance of winning more than nul points. It's a damn sight better than last year's entry which was technically good but deadly dull.

I love it so much. Best since Sam.

It’s like Thomas Dolby / Howard Johnson / The Thomson Twins meets Europop.

Whats not to like?

It reminds me of the Lena Lovich (sp?) hit I Want Your Money.

It's OK. At least it's not set in a filthy toilet cubicle or features any cocks hanging out of shorts.

I don't watch EV anymore as the last couple of years has been a load of shite.

Thomas Dolby - thank you! That's who I was thinking of, but couldn't remember his name!

When I first heard it I was a bit unsure... but I've been humming it all day so when I got back from work I watched the video, and now I really like it!

She Blinded Me With Science.

My misspent youth.

DH had reminded me that it was Howard Jones.

Howard Johnson is a motel chain.

🙄

It’s very Eurovision (about time really). I like it.

I mean, all UK Eurovision entries are now regarded through the lens of “Thank GOD it’s not whatever that absolute shite by Olly Alexander was” so we can’t fail any more. Even if this gets nil points, we’ll still be able to comfort ourselves that at least this time we didn’t lose with some weird toilet porn video 🤷🏻‍♀️

Fucking hell yes.
