BIRTHDAY: Nicky Byrne from Ireland is 41 today There’s a lot to be said for the selection process to choose a song for our favourite TV show. What’s the right formula? Do you go for an internal selection? Or do you let Joe/Josef/Jozef/Giuseppe public decide? Obviously, this year, […]
BIRTHDAY: Joe Woolford from the UK is 25 today You have to admire the United Kingdom of stuff. They have this glittering past of top three places that came to a juddering halt in 2002. They may have been overtaken by a number of events. Yet they still […]
BIRTHDAY: Ira Losco from Malta is 38 today The returning performer – oh how we love them. Except for Alexander Rybak. You must have your favourite returning performer. Or maybe there’s a performer you’d like to see come back. Like Rodolfo Chikilicuatre for example. Today’s birthday girl Ira […]
