Cheryl Baker, who won Eurovision in 1981 as part of Bucks Fizz, has given her verdict on Olly Alexander's Eurovision performance and says the UK has 'little chance' of winning

Eurovision icon Cheryl Baker has unleashed a scathing critique, doubting Olly Alexander's chances of triumphing at the upcoming contest.The 33-year-old Years and Years lead singer showcased his entry 'Dizzy' on Tuesday night, eliciting a polarised response from the audience, with some prematurely dismissing his chances.

Ahead of the weekend showdown, Cheryl has candidly shared her thoughts on the UK's contender, hoping her predictions will be proven incorrect. "I know it's a simple thing but how about throwing in a couple of key changes? It gives it an automatic lift. Is it too late to change it now, I don't know. I don't see why not, there's still a few days to go. But take no notice of me - I've never, ever make the correct prediction. I always get it wrong. It would be amazing if he brings the Eurovision trophy back to the UK.
