Odds of 125/1 suggest ‘Josh’ is the worst Eurovision entry ever for the UK
William Hill's odds suggest that the UK entry 'Josh' is the worst that the UK has ever fielded at 125/1, but that has not stopped turnover rushing past the £100,000 mark.
The firm report that almost all the money is coming in for the other entries, in particular Azerbaijan, who are the 11/8 favourites to win the competition.
"We are taking money on every country except the UK and it looks like we are going to be humiliated again," said Hill's spokesman Rupert Adams.
If you fancy an unpatriotic punt on the UK flopping in Eurovision, you can get odds of 5/1 that Josh gets ‘nil points’.
