The Eurovision contest kicks off this Saturday (May 14) with the reformed Blue representing the UK.


As the renowned Eurovision heads into its 56th year, Gigwise thought we'd celebrate the contest in our own way.

The UK has been been plagued with bad entries year after year including last year's Josh Dubovie's 'That Sounds Good To Me' and Scooch's 'Flying The Flag' in 2007.

In our new round-up we’ve taken a look at some of the worst UK entries in the contests history - from Javine, Daz Sampson and Love City Groove.

Check them out below now. Leave your thoughts in the comment form at the bottom of this page.

  • Javine - 'Touch My Fire' - She may have not made the cut for Girls Aloud and after a failed solo career Javine represented the UK in the 2005 Eurovision.

  • Jemini - 'Cry Baby' - The band ended up in twenty sixth place at the 2003 Eurovision but were criticised for being off key and scoring the dreaded ‘nul points’.

  • Andy Abraham - 'Even If' - The X Factor finalist was voted to represent the UK at the 2008 Eurovision contest with his entry ‘Even If’

  • Samantha Janus - 'A Message To Your Heart' - The Eastenders actress came tenth in the 1991 Eurovision contest.

  • Daz Sampson - Teenage Life - The UK DJ thought he’d give Eurovision a go in 2006. His track ‘Teenage Life’ came nineteenth.

  • Scooch - Flying The Flag - Dressed as members of a flight crew what could you not love about Scooch? Alot apparently as their 2007 entry same twenty second in the contest.

  • Nicki French: 'Don't Play That Song Again' - Known by many for her 1995 dance cover of ‘Total Eclpise Of The Heart’, Nicki French represented the UK at Eurovision in 2000. Her entry ‘Don’t Play That Song’ finished sixteenth in the competition.

  • Josh Dubovie - 'That Sounds Good To Me' - Last year’s Eurovision hopeful Josh Dubovie was dubbed the worst UK entry of all time after his 2010 performance of ‘That Sounds Good To Me’.

  • Love City Groove - 'Love City Groove' - Love City Groove’s self-titled entry at the 1995 Eurovision contest may have charted at number seven in the UK charts but only managed to reach number ten in the contest.

  • Black Lace - 'Mary Ann' - Black Lace’s 1979 entry at the Eurovison came a respectable seventh place.
