Lord Andrew Lloyd Webber and Jade Ewen – writer and performer of the UK's Eurovision Song Contest entry – join Jonathan Ross tonight on his Ö÷²¥´óÐã One show Friday Night With Jonathan Ross.

Andrew confirms he'll perform at the Eurovision Song Contest: "It's supposed to be a surprise... but of course I'll play for her."

He also talks about his next talent show, a search for Dorothy for The Wizard Of Oz – "but it won’t be called the Oz Factor!" – and models his outfit for Eurovision, including a belt he bought in 1965 which he can now wear again since losing so much weight.

He thinks Jade will be a superstar: "In my career I've found few singers who can do what she can, I just know she'll have a great career, Eurovision is just the beginning."

Jonathan is also joined by Sophie Dahl, who says the press made her weight an issue: "I didn't really notice I was any different before... the more focus there was on my weight, the more confusing it was."

And she doesn't believe in dieting: "I'm still very greedy, I think about food all the time, there's this myth that there's some diet secret."

She also confirms she's getting married to fiance Jamie Cullum next year – but won't be doing the catering – and that she's planning her first TV series.

Also on the show is Rob Brydon, who talks about filming this summer for the next series of Gavin & Stacey and reveals he delivered his fourth child at home... and looks forward to having more.
