#BIRTHDAY: Jacqueline Boyer from France is 84 today Because we celebrate all aspects of our favourite TV show here, it should be no surprise when we dig deeply into the archives. We’ve dug/digged very deeply today, back to the fifth contest. No, it’s not from 2006, but from […]
#BIRTHDAY: Jaklin Baghdasaryan from Armenia is 28 today We all remember 2024. It was memorable on so many levels. Not all of them completely savoury. But, we still had 37 songs competing for the crystal microphone. And one of them features today. Our friends in Armenia usually generally […]

#BIRTHDAY: Géraldine Gogly is 79 today We love vintage here. There is more to Eurovision than someone clucking in ultra high definition. There were days when we had nothing more than respectable black & white, and an altogether more demure look. Today we go back to 1967, when […]
