UK slashed as Hump' reveals Love Will Set You Free
William Hill have cut the odds of the UK winning the Eurovision Song Contest from 16/1 to 14/1 after Englebert Humperdink unveiled the song that he will be performing in Azerbaijan.
The stripped down ditty has proved popular on Twitter and the odds have been adjusted accordingly, although it still has a way to go to catch up with Ireland's entry - Jedward.
Hills make Ireland 1/2 to outscore the UK in the final results (UK are 6/4).
Both countries have a good chance of securing a top ten finish, however, with Hills making the UK 4/7 to do so and Ireland 4/5.
"Eurovision fans have certainly not got the Hump with the UK entry and we expect that it will do relatively well in Baku this year," said Hill's spokesman Joe Crilly.
