UK Eurovision Act Sam Battle Spotted Alone, Adopted by Danish Delegation

The UK's Eurovision entrant Sam Battle, known as Look Mum No Computer, was seen sitting alone in the Vienna arena during rehearsals, sparking criticism of the UK delegation. The 37-year-old YouTube star finished last in the contest with just one point from Ukraine.

Images showed Battle on a semicircular sofa with only a crumpled Union Jack for company, while other acts were surrounded by their teams. Fans accused the UK delegation of 'disrespecting their own act' and called the scene 'shameful'.

However, a member of the Danish delegation invited Battle to join them, and he was later seen on their sofa. Denmark was represented by Søren Torpegaard Lund, a 27-year-old musical theatre star.

Eurovision host Rylan Clark noted that Battle built much of his own set and declined help, saying 'it's alright mate, don't worry'. The contest was won by Bulgaria's Dara with 516 points.
