Joanna Lumley will be the United Kingdom’s spokesperson at the Eurovision Final this weekend.

Practicing for the big night she said, “Good Evening Malmö, it’s Joanna here! I am delighted to be announcing the jury vote for the UK at this year’s Eurovision. It’s such a fabulous honour to give the iconic ‘douze points’!”

Can we hope it’s in ‘Patsy’ costume too?

Lumley follows in the footsteps of previous spokespeople which includes Catherine Tate, AJ Odudu, Amanda Holden, Nigella Lawson, Mel Giedroyc, Richard Osman, Alex Jones, Cheryl Baker and Katrina Leskanich from Katrina & The Waves amongst many others.

SBS is yet to announce Australia’s spokesperson which in recent years has included Courtney Act, Catherine Martin, Joel Creasey, Ricardo Goncalves, Lee Lin Chin, Julia Zemiro.

  1. SBS organisers are very slack this year – first they took almost until the last hour to announce who was representing Australia this year, now they can’t announce Australia’s spokesperson until the last minute too, with Eurovision taking place within hours. Add to this, they also scrapped Eurovision: Australia Decides. Very disorganised and all very “last minute”.
