BIRTHDAY: Sabrina from Portugal is 38 today Do you ever wonder what goes through the minds of defeated semi-finalists? Do you think they expect to fall at the semi-final stage? Or are there thoroughly disappointed? Eleventh place must be that most unlucky of positions. You only just miss […]
BIRTHDAY: DQ from Denmark is 47 today Our favourite TV show can be a glamorous affair, and many people just tune in for the costumes. They must just like shiny things. Well that might explain a certain Ukrainian with a star on their head. Of course, there’s more […]
BIRTHDAY: Guri Schanke from Norway is 58 today As you’ll know, Eurovision is a very fickle thing. Just ask Portugal. Or Austria. Or even the Netherlands. You can languish in the semi-finals one year, and then put in a storming performance the next. Our friends in Norway have […]
