#ESCAPED: How Yugoslavia Avoided ‘Nul Points’ In The Grand Final

In this series from Eurovision Ireland, we will be taking a look at the participating countries and their entries that have avoided the dreaded ‘Nul Points’ in the Grand Final – thanks to just one other participating country. Today we look at Yugoslavia.

1970

In 1970, Yugoslavia was represented by Eva Srsen in Amsterdam. “Pridi, dala ti bom cvet” would have been awarded the dreaded Nul Points had it not been for the British Jury awarding Yugoslavia 4 points. Yugoslavia finished 11th out of a field of 12.
