Voting will open for the main award during the Sports Personality of the Year show.

You will be able to vote online or by telephone or by scanning a QR code which will take you directly to the vote page. The QR code will be displayed on screen during the show with all other voting information. You can use your mobile, tablet or computer to access the QR code.

In order to cast your vote online, you must sign in to your BBC account. If you do not have an account, you will need to register before you can vote.

During the live show the presenters will let you know when the vote has opened and give out the telephone numbers.

Once the vote is open, you can either dial to vote for your favourite, or cast your vote online. You can only vote once and must be in the UK to vote online.
