#BIRTHDAY: Iveta Mukuchyan from Armenia is 37 today Today we go to one of those countries who have been able to get things right with the junior version of our favourite TV show. Seven Top 2 places no less. But they’ve had a little less success at the […]
#BIRTHDAY: Joe Woolford from the UK is 29 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. With one obvious exception. They may have been overtaken by a number of […]
#BIRTHDAY: Sanja Vučić from Serbia is 30 today Some of those singers just can’t get enough of our favourite TV show. They keep coming back, just to see if they can win that crystal microphone. But it sometimes happens that they come back again in a slightly different […]
#BIRTHDAY: Dalal from Bosnia & Herzegovina is 42 today Our friends in Bosnia & Herzegovina have fallen out of love with our favourite TV show of late. We miss them with their quirky acts and Slavic tendencies. They last had a go at winning in 2016 and didn’t […]

#BIRTHDAY: Douwe Bob from the Netherlands is 30 today Funny how some coincidences come about. If you’re a fan of our favourite TV show, then you might have been variously pleased, disappointed or annoyed that you did or didn’t get tickets for when the circus eventually arrived in […]
