The British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) continued to use a national final A Song for Europe to select its entry.

For 1992, the multi-artist format utilized since 1976 was dropped in favor of a single artist performing several songs as from 1964 to 1975.

Eight songs, all performed by Michael Ball, competed in the televised final on 3 April 1992 held at the BBC's TVC3 Studio in London and hosted by Terry Wogan.

The performances were filmed earlier on 2 April 1992 and a public televote selected the winning song, "One Step Out of Time", which was revealed during a separate show broadcast on BBC1 and hosted by Terry Wogan.

The winning song was released by his label Polydor on single in 7" vinyl, cassette and CD formats, reaching no.
