Who will represent the UK in Eurovision 2025 and who are the previous entries?

THE UK has had a chequered history of success in the Eurovision Song Contest, including five wonderful wins and two notorious nil points.
Here get to know the group representing these shores this year, as well as taking a look back at the UK's most notable entries over the years.
The Sun exclusively revealed in February 2025 that the UK would be represented at the 2025 Eurovision Song Contest by girl group Remember Monday.
Made up of members Lauren Byrne, Holly-Anne Hull and Charlotte Steele, the country-pop trio may be new to Eurovision, but this isn't the first time they've performed on a big stage.
The girl band performed in front of Olly Murs, Will.i.am, Jennifer Hudson and Sir Tom Jones when they took part in The Voice 2019.
Remember Monday has also performed at several major UK events including Country to Country, The Long Road and Buckle and Boots.
They previously supported Billy Joel and Natasha Beddingfield on tour — before embarking on their very own UK tour.
Joining Scott Mills on BBC Radio 2, band member Lauren Bryne explained: "We met at sixth form college a few years ago and, essentially, we always had free periods on a Monday which is when we just used to get together and sing.
Lauren continued: ''That turned into us singing every single day of the week and not going to our classes and our teacher used to come and find us in random spare classrooms and knock on the door and be like, 'Girls are you coming into class today?' and we were like, 'No Jenny, we're just going to stay in here, sorry!'
"So we did that for years and years and it kind of became a little in joke that it was always happening on a Monday so that's where Remember Monday was born and, yeah, about a year and a bit ago, we packed in the day job and went full time and it's going OK! [laughs]. Here we are.''
Sam Ryder represented the UK with his song Space Man at the edition of the competition in Turin, Italy.
He was selected internally by the BBC and TaP Music, marking a shift in the UK's approach to Eurovision after years of disappointing results.
The singer-songwriter from Essex co-wrote Space Man with Amy Wadge and Max Wolfgang.
The song quickly became a fan favourite and was praised for its positive energy and strong composition

He finished in second place with a total of 466 points, winning the jury vote with 283 points and achieving the highest score ever for a UK entrant in the contest.

France, The Netherlands and Spain tied with The UK on 18 points and there were no rules in place to decide an overall winner.
All four countries were declared winners but Finland, Norway, Sweden and Portugal did not participate in the 1970 Contest as a protest against the result the following year.
The rules were then changed to make sure the situation never happened again.
The UK's first ever winner was Sandie Shaw with the track Puppet On A String in 1967, which was hosted that year in Vienna.
Sandie was one of the most successful pop artists in the 1960s, with her Eurovision win the icing on the cake in that decade.
