The United Kingdom entered the JESC three times, and the broadcaster is ITV. Tom Morley (2003) and Cory Spedding (2004) sang both for the peace in the world and Joni Fuller (2005) described her feelings. There was no UK representative in JESC 2006: ITV had stopped broadcasting the show as their three year contract had ended. The BBC, Channel 4 and S4C had no intention of broadcasting the contest, this meant that the UK was absent from a Eurovision contest for the first time since 1958.

The UK holds the third highest number of total points: 140 points in 2004.

The results of the partipication has been successful. They have taken a 2nd place as well as 3rd place.

ITV is currently in talks with the EBU, who are persuading them to return in 2007.
