The President of Ukraine has announced that he wants to host the next Eurovision Song Contest in Ukraine following the country's win.

Sam Ryder has been called as winner of the Eurovision, but sadly it was during a rehearsal for Saturday's final.

Eurovision might have been on our screens since 1956, but the UK hasn't had much luck in winning over the years. In fact, in all of its 66 year history, we've only been able to beat the competition and claim the win on five occasions. Our friends in Ireland have proven the most successful, having won Eurovision seven times.

A rehearsal vote during the rehearsal of Eurovision meant that the UK's hopeful, Sam Ryder, was announced as the winner. Unfortunately this doesn't mean that the Brit has won the actual competition, as the live final won't take place until 8pm GMT later this evening (Saturday, 14 May).

Eurovision Song Contest has returned for another year, bringing with it more musical drama and excitement. So far this year, Russia has been banned from the contest, while Latvia has been stamped with a censorship order and the UK afforded a rare shot at first place in the bookies. Every year, the show is presented by showbiz stalwarts from the hosting nation – and this year is no exception.
