Will Ferrell's Eurovision: The Story Of Fire Saga Predicted James Newman Getting 'Nul Points' Last Night

Lemtov's line regarding the United Kingdom's entry to that fictional contest went: "She's quite good, but everybody hates the UK, so zero points."

That's how it turned out last night, too.

Stevens himself even tweeted out a picture of his character delivering the line with the caption: "Called it."

Then, in a crushing moment, it was announced that it also received no votes from the European public.

Luckily, Newman seemed to take it pretty well, standing up and waving his beer around to take the acclaim from the crowd.

Of course, it didn't always go that way.

While some of the UK's more forgettable entries over the years have also garnered zero points - anyone remember Jemini? - Britain has come home as the champions on a good few occasions.

Sandie Shaw famously won in 1967 with 'Puppet on a String', before Lulu followed that success up with 'Boom Bang-a-Bang' two years later in 1969.

After a few years off, Brotherhood of Man took home the prestigious prize in 1976 with 'Save Your Kisses for Me' and Bucks Fizz's famous costume-changing performance won in 1981.

The most recent success that Britain has seen was in 1997 with 'Love Shine a Light', performed by Katrina and the Waves.

Last night saw Italian rock band Måneskin take home first place after a dramatic public vote saw them pip entries from Switzerland and France to the top spot.
