Josh 'still smiling' despite Eurovision woes

The UK's Eurovision singer Josh Dubovie has said he is "still smiling" despite finishing last in the contest in Oslo on Saturday night.

Josh Dubovie scored just 10 points with the song That Sounds Good To Me, penned by Pete Waterman and Mike Stock, giving the UK its third last placing in the contest in the past decade.

However he told the BBC News website that it had been a "privilege" to represent the UK at the contest.

"This has been one of the best experiences of my life no matter where I've come in the contest," he said.

"It's been a privilege to represent the UK, I will keep performing and I'm still smiling."

Earlier in the week Waterman had said it was "highly unlikely" the UK would win the contest with his song.

However he and co-writers Mike Stock and Steve Crosby said after the contest that they were "proud" of Josh's performance and added, "He did a fantastic job for the UK."

The contest was won by Germany's Lena-Meyer Landrut, whose quirky pop track Satellite scored 246 points.
