In an announcement made earlier today, the BBC confirmed the UK’s participation in Eurovision 2020 and also gave details of a new selection process for the song and artist.
The UK public will no longer have the opportunity to vote on their preferred choices, as the BBC has dropped the ‘You Decide’ show format which has been used to select the UK entry for Eurovision since 2016 and will instead move back to internal selection.
In a surprise move however, the whole process will be done in collaboration with the music company BMG and therefore it is very likely that both the songwriters and artist will be selected from the labels own extensive roster of artists.
