Stockport’s answer to Snoop Dogg failed to make his mark in the competition with his questionable secondary school-themed rap Teenage Life. Despite finishing down in 19th place, Daz Sampson was determined to have another crack at the contest, and has since tried (unsuccessfully) to be chosen again to represent the UK and Belarus.

Scooch 2007
The airline-themed entry suffered serious turbulence when it jetted off to represent us in Helsinki.

MISS
