host addressed England losing out on winning the "atrocious" once more as he discussed the divisive singing contest on Sunday. Viewers shared their fury as England lost out on winning Eurovision again. Austria took home the win with artist JJ facing off against Israel in a nail-biting showdown during the finale on Saturday. Meanwhile the UK has crashed out at Eurovision, taking 19th place out of a possible 26, leading some, including GB News guest Alex Dyke to question why we are still taking part. Eamonn shared: "Year after year we are humiliated!"
Alex responded: "We're so above Eurovision we shouldn't be in it! We gave the world The Beatles, Queen, and The Rolling Stones! We are the Millwall of Eurovision. Nobody likes us, and we don't care!"
Eamonn added, "You're making the mistake of associating it with music. It has nothing to do with music. It seems to be a culture, a subculture. It is to do with political point scoring."
Alex commented: "We didn't get one vote! It's a disgrace!"
Viewers of the show agreed as they shared their anger in the comment section. One said: "They've (Europe) never liked us. We're like a puppet on a string." Another typed: "I don't know why we keep bothering." A third remarked: "What a shocker, we didn't win Eurovision."
The UK's Eurovision entry, Remember Monday, avoided null point humiliation but failed to win the illustrious song contest's title. Austria stormed to a narrow victory in what has been one of the most politically charged song contests ever.
The Hampshire-based girl group took to the St Jakobshalle arena stage to represent the UK, performing their song "What the Hell Just Happened." However, despite their best efforts, the odds were not in their favour.
Viewers at home were left impressed by their "unbelievable vocals," praising the trio's performance. One viewer wrote, "Oh, girls, you smashed it. That was stunning, and your joy on that stage was infectious. I so loved it. You're our winners."
It comes as two activists were arrested after trying to storm the stage during October 7 survivor, Yuval Raphae's, performance, while pro-Palestine protesters clashed with Swiss riot cops as the show continued throughout the night.
