But, does it really matter? The programme still gets the ratings, plus a large amount of the viewing base thinks the entire contest is a joke, and neither the UK broadcasting or music industries need a Eurovision win to establish themselves and their acts in Europe. We don't need to win, and it's not doing anyone any harm by us not winning.
Exactly. The BBC get good ratings (BGT hit them a bit this year) and don't have to worry about hosting...
