The 68th Eurovision Song Contest is taking place in Malmo, Sweden, this year. It's a spiritual homecoming of sorts with Sweden's supergroup Abba - who are the most famous band ever to come out of the contest - crowned the winners 50 years ago. Loved and loathed in equal measure for its euro pop earworms, evocative power ballads, and eye-watering novelty acts, there's no clear frontrunner for this year's show - meaning it's all to play for.
But Eurovision voters - made up equally of public votes and a jury of music experts - will of course be the judge of that. Other notable mentions include France's Silmane giving a heartfelt rendition of Mon Amour and Ireland's Bambie Thug singing Doomsday Blue - a song she's described as 'an electro-metal breakdown'. What about the UK? As one of the 'Big Five' the UK is guaranteed a place in the final. Plus, as the host nation, Sweden gets an automatic pass too.
