Music producer Pete Waterman was hired to write this year’s British entry for the Eurovision song contest and is due to give the public their first listen of the track tonight. However, yesterday the former Pop Idol judge admitted that he still hasn’t finished writing the tune.

The song is due to be played during tonight’s BBC1′s Eurovision: Your Country Needs You at 8.30pm.

The Sun quote Pete as saying: “I’m still 24 hours away from hearing the completed track.”

Here’s hoping he gets it done in time. If not, the BBC may decide to bring back Sir Andrew Lloyd Webber.
