The 60th Eurovision song contest takes place this Saturday in Vienna, stretching the boundaries of Europe slightly to allow Australia to take part this time round. Televised coverage starts at 8pm, with many London venues screening the coverage alongside their own embellishments.
The UK's 2015 entry is duo Electro Velvet, who are performing Still In Love With You. Could this be our year? Who knows, but we'll be in a corner somewhere, downing a shot every time Graham Norton asks that very question.
