Eurovision Final night has arrived - and Ireland's Bambie Thug has raised hopes of victory. But the competition it has already been marred by a string of protests over Israel's inclusion and Dutch act Joost Klein will not be competing following an 'incident'.

Zoe Delaney from Mirror UK writes: "The European Broadcasting Union has announced a number of changes to the grand final after the disqualification of Dutch act Joost Klein. "The organisers of Eurovision have said that all contestants will keep their official running order. The outcome of the contest is determined by a jury of music industry professionals and viewers’ votes, which each make a 50% contribution to the result.

According to the EBU, the jury results received after dress rehearsal number two on Friday have been recalculated, so that the Netherlands will not receive any points. "Jury members rank all songs from one to 26 – there are now 25 performers. This means that if the Netherlands was ranked ninth by a national jury in any country, the 10th ranked song has now moved down to number nine.
