However, the Brit failed to win over both the juries and the members of the public who lodged their votes.
Mr Battle earned just one solitary point from the jury vote, thanks to Ukraine. Europe’s public then awarded him zero points.

Meanwhile, it was a historic night for Dara who was overcome with emotion as they celebrated being crowned the 2026 Eurovision winner.
Despite the loss, Mr Battle appeared to take the results in his stride, laughing and waving his Union Jack to the camera.

At the other end of the leaderboard, it was a tense final moment as Dara was left on tenterhooks to see if she would emerge on top.
Israel’s Noam Bettan was occupying the number one spot before Bulgaria learned of the public’s vote.
Mr Bettan’s 343 was soon surpassed by Dara, who bagged the trophy with an incredible 516 points following the public vote.
