This year's Eurovision Song Contest will be hosted by Ted Lassostar Hannah Waddingham, singer Alesha Dixon, and Ukrainian singer Julia Sanina.

Waddingham says it's "a great privilege" to be a part of the upcoming competition. "It's one of the world's greatest music festivals. But this year, perhaps more than ever, it is such a great honour to be standing shoulder to shoulder with Ukraine, a country which has carried itself with such strength and unity."

The UK is hosting Eurovision on behalf of Ukraine, which was invaded by Russia since last year and continues to be embroiled in conflict. This year's singing competition, taking place in Liverpool is expected to have over 160 million viewers globally.

The trio of presenters will also be joined by Graham Norton for the grand finale. Norton has long appeared at the competition and says "this year is even more special".
