About United Kingdom in the Eurovision Song Contest 2021

The United Kingdom was represented at the Eurovision Song Contest 2021 with the song "Embers" written by James Newman, Conor Blake, Danny Shah, Tom Hollings, and Samuel Brennan, and performed by Newman himself. The British participating broadcaster, the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC), internally selected both the song and the performer, after Newman was due to compete in the 2020 contest with "My Last Breath" before the event's cancellation. Newman was announced as the British entrant on 19 February 2021, while the song "Embers" was presented to the public on 11 March 2021.
