#BIRTHDAY: Gina G from the UK is 50 today If you were a Eurovision performer, eagerly awaiting the draw for the Grand Final, what would your worse fear be? Being on first? Being on last? Being on second maybe? I would wager your average performer wouldn’t know about […]
#BIRTHDAY: Isabelle Aubret from France is 82 today It’s about time we had a winner. And it’s about time we had something in glorious black & white. So when those two parts of a Venn diagram work, it’s only right we oblige. Back in 1962, France notched up […]
#BIRTHDAY: Evelina Sašenko from Lithuania is 33 today Can you cast your mind back to nine years ago? What were you doing? Were you at school? Were you celebrating one of those ‘big’ birthdays that ends in a zero? Were you even a fan of our favourite TV […]

#BIRTHDAY: Braulio from Spain is 74 today It’s always a curious mix of countries in our favourite TV show. We have the 21st Century newbies, to those that have racked up 50 appearances or more. So it follows that, occasionally, we pick songs from times before you, dear […]
