BBC director-general Tim Davie visits Liverpool Eurovision arena

Footage of BBC director-general Tim Davie visiting the Liverpool Eurovision area. Shots include the director general posing for photographs, exploring the new Eurovision location as well as general footage of the arena. The international music show will take place at the 11,000-capacity Liverpool Arena next May, culminating in the grand final on Saturday 13, after the city fended off competition from Glasgow. Glasgow had been the bookmakers’ favourite but the city that gave birthed to The Beatles, Frankie Goes To Hollywood and Gerry And The Pacemakers eventually won out. Eurovision is being held in the UK after this year’s winner, Ukraine, was deemed unable to host because of the Russian invasion.
