Eurovision acts rehearse for last time before grand final in Liverpool

Last-minute preparations for the 2023 Eurovision Song Contest grand final are being made as performers rehearse for the last time.

Frontrunners for the annual competition include Loreen representing Sweden, Finland's Käärijä and Noa Kirel, who is representing Israel.

Britain is being represented by north London-born Mae Muller, whose entry titled 'I Wrote A Song'.

This year's Eurovision is being held in Liverpool despite last year's winner being Ukraine.

Due to the war in Ukraine, second-placed United Kingdom is hosting in its place.

The grand final takes place on Saturday 12 May and starts at 8 pm GMT.
