Watch: Protester interrupts the UK's Eurovision entry in Lisbon
A man stormed the stage while the UK's entry, SuRie, was performing at the Eurovision Song Contest.
SuRie was singing her song Storm when a man wearing a rucksack ran onto the stage, grabbed her microphone, and appeared to say: "Nazis of the UK media, we demand freedom."
He was swiftly dragged off stage and SuRie continued performing the song.
Israel won the contest with 520 points while SuRie's song was third from bottom, gaining 48 points.

The invader is in police custody, the European Broadcasting Union said. He is understood to be a European citizen but not British.
It is thought the same man invaded the stage at the National Television Awards this year, and The Voice in 2017.
SuRie was given the chance to perform again, but declined. The BBC said: "SuRie and her team are extremely proud of her performance and have together decided that there is absolutely no reason to perform the song again."
