#BIRTHDAY: Kristína Peláková from Slovakia is 37 today Are there any countries you’d like to see in the 2025 edition of our favourite TV show, that weren’t going to be there in 2024? A new country perhaps? Or one that hasn’t been there for a while? Today we […]
#BIRTHDAY: Olia Tira from Moldova is 36 today Our friends in Moldova have not yet won, but we all know they really put in the hard yards/metres every year, and that win might not be that far away. They have had a third-place finish, and two weeks in […]
#BIRTHDAY: Didrik Solli-Tangen from Norway is 37 today The home entrant. To be fair, they haven’t had the best of times of late. There was a time when singing in a contest that could taking place in your city was a guarantee for a top position. Not so […]
