Eurovision 2023 in Liverpool was a little over a week ago but reports suggest that planning for the 2024 UK act has already begun. 

It's reported that BBC bosses want to get Sophie Ellis-Bextor to represent the UK in Sweden next year. 

The singer has been a household name for over 20 years with chart-topping songs including 'Murder on the Dance Floor' and 'Grovejet'. 

Now it's said that Ellis-Bextor will wow the crowds in Sweden as she's named a frontrunner for the 2024 UK Eurovision Act.

The exciting news comes from a source who shared that the bosses at the BBC only have one artist on their list. 

A source told the MailOnline: "Sophie Ellis-Bextor is seen as the ideal fit for the contest – she’s a great singer and performer, and she is already known to audiences, both straight and gay, across Europe."

The news comes following UK's disappointing result with Mae Muller's 'I Wrote A Song' placing second to last at Liverpool. 

Although the city was praised for putting on an impressive show with hosts Graham Norton, Hannah Waddingham, Alesha Dixon and Julia Sanina all praised.
