Eurovision Song Contest 2024

BBC1, 8pm

Winning the Eurovision Song Contest is always a cause for celebration, but Sweden must have been especially thrilled when Loreen finished first in 2023 with Tattoo. Not only did it bring their winning total to seven, meaning they now tie with Ireland as the most successful country in the contest’s history, it also allowed them to host this year, which marks the 50th anniversary of Abba giving them their iconic first win with Waterloo. The show comes from Malmö Arena, and is hosted by singer and twotime Eurovision presenter Petra Mede alongside Swedish-born Hollywood star Malin Akerman.
