Speaking about his song Dizzy, Olly said: “Dizzy is about an overwhelming feeling of love that someone gives you where they’ve swept you off your feet and they’re literally turning your world upside down.

“The song is about that feeling, and I love it, I love the song so much, and I just can’t wait to perform it.”

Eurovision airs tonight in the UK from 8PM on BBC One and online via BBC iPlayer, with commentary in the UK provided by Graham Norton.

The show is due to conclude at midnight but has often overran in past years.

As well as the TV airing, you can also listen in via BBC Radio 2.
