Every Eurovision country that gave UK zero points - after act's humiliating blow
Our community members are treated to special offers, promotions and adverts from us and our partners. You can check out at any time. More info Get the latest Edinburgh Live breaking news on WhatsApp The 69th Eurovision Song Contest wrapped up with a dazzling Grand Final in Basel, Switzerland, seeing Austria crowned as the winners. This year, the UK was represented by pop trio Remember Monday, who performed their track, What The Hell Just Happened?, on Swiss turf. The group, made up of Lauren Byrne, Holly-Anne Hull and Charlotte Steele, charmed the crowd with their song, inspired by their friendship and Hampshire roots. They were the eighth act to grace the stage at Saturday's grand spectacle, ultimately amassing a total of 88 points and landing in 19th place. However, they faced disappointment as they received zero points in the public vote for the second year running. The UK is part of the Big 5, which also includes France, Germany, Italy and Spain. This year's competition saw 37 countries take part, with 26 making it to the grand final, reports the Express. This included the Big 5, last year's victor Switzerland, and the 20 semi-final qualifiers. The UK has been a staple in every Eurovision Grand Final since 1959 and has taken home the trophy five times. The winner is determined based on a mix of points from national juries and viewer votes in the participating 26 countries, supplemented by a separate global poll. Singer Sophie Ellis-Bextor stepped up to present the UK's national jury votes after Doctor Who star Ncuti Gatwa had to bow out as Britain's Eurovision spokesperson due to "unforeseen circumstances". BBC One aired the grand final live at 8pm on Saturday, with Graham Norton commentating for TV viewers. Radio enthusiasts could catch Rylan Clark and Scott Mills hosting live on BBC Radio 2 and BBC Sounds. The UK often faces an uphill battle in the public vote at Eurovision, frequently scoring nul points from several countries. Here's how Remember Monday fared with their Eurovision score: Sweden handed out zero points. Azerbaijan also gave zero points. Malta's votes tallied up to zero points. Netherlands joined in with zero points. Slovenia echoed with zero points. Armenia followed suit with zero points. Luxembourg bucked the trend with 6 points. San Marino sprinkled over 2 points. Ukraine chipped in with 10 points. Norway dished out 7 points. Austria matched Norway's 7 points. France stuck with the zero points trend. Italy brought joy with 12 points. Portugal allocated 2 points. Denmark added 4 points to the tally. Croatia stayed with zero points. Latvia delivered zero points. Ireland was good for 2 points. Poland pitched in with 1 point. Montenegro kept to zero points. Greece aligned with zero points. Serbia continued with the trend of zero points. Czechia went big with 10 points. Spain awarded a decent 6 points. Finland was close behind with 5 points. Australia joined the zero-point circle. Germany couldn't offer more than zero points. Belgium held fast at zero points. Israel kept their points to themselves - zero points. Albania agreed with most giving zero points. Lithuania restrained with zero points. Iceland caused a stir with 5 points.
