Eurovision to screen on UKTV in NZ

Wed 29 Apr 2015 In: New Zealand Daily News

The Eurovision Song Contest will be on Sky’s UKTV next month. The competition, which has a massive gay following, was won by Austrian bearded lady Conchita Wurst last year. She will be a guest performer and presenter at the 2015 show, which will take place in Vienna. Every year, 100 to 125 million people in over 45 countries watch the televised competition. This year Australia has been invited to compete as a wild card entry to celebrate the event’s 60th anniversary. It will be represented by Guy Sebastian. Eurovision’s semi-finals will be on UKTV at 7am on 20 and 22 May, with encore screenings at 8.30pm. The final is on May 24 at 7am, with a 6.30pm encore.
