The home town of the electronic musician representing the UK at the Eurovision Song Contest is preparing to cheer him on.

Sam Battle, known as Look Mum No Computer, will perform at the final on Saturday in his bid to become the first British entry to win since 1997.

The artist and YouTuber is well known around Ramsgate, Kent for running This Museum Is (Not) Obsolete, his unique instruments made from Furbys and Game Boys, and now his Eurovision song Eins, Zwei, Drei.

Gemma Dempsey of Ramsgate Town Council said: “I couldn’t be more delighted that he’s representing the UK in the competition.”

She told Radio Kent work started on a street watch party “as soon as we heard” Battle had been chosen.

The event, with a large viewing screen, takes place on Harbour Parade from 18:00 BST on Saturday.
