UK: Where does Michael Rice come from? This may seem an odd question, as we know he comes from the coastal town of Hartlepool in England’s north-east. But we all have DNA, and sponsor MyHeritage has been looking into his family lines. They prove interesting. Michael is 65.8% […]
BIRTHDAY: Mary Hopkin from the UK is 69 today What’s it like to be runner-up? If you’re the host country, then it’s ideal. If you think you’re in with a shot of winning, then you’ll always be ‘first loser’. Alternatively, there are times when winning is more embarrassing […]
We’ve got less than a week to go until rehearsals start in Tel Aviv for the Eurovision Song Contest 2019!! Yaaaaayy!!! But before the artists, delegations, press and fans from all over the world descend on Israel, who do the bookies think will be the ones to watch […]

BIRTHDAY: Molly Smitten-Downes from the UK is 32 today We had a birthday of someone from a country that would love to win. And I’d love to see them win. Today we have a country in the same doldrum-like predicament. They try in a very nonchalant sort of […]
BIRTHDAY: Lucie Jones from the UK is 28 today What do you think of the Big Five? Should they get an automatic place in the final, or should they have to go through the semi-finals like the rest of us? It’s true that the Big Five do have […]

It’s been another really busy weekend for Eurovision fans everywhere with no less than 7 national finals this week (including Serbia and Georgia tonight!) and over half of the songs heading to Tel Aviv have been released. So what has this done to the betting odds? It’s been […]
BIRTHDAY: Sandie Shaw from the UK is 72 today It’s monochrome Tuesday here, so suspend your disappointment in the lack of colour, and concentrate on the song. A song that won. And was the first song in the now all-pervasive English language to win. Picture the scene. A […]
BIRTHDAY: SuRie from the UK is 30 today You might be a little weary of Eurovision after super Saturday – and Sunday. Or you might be wanting more and more and more. And did you spot one of Saturday’s winning song titles? And that tenuous link brings me […]
BIRTHDAY: Sonia from the UK is 48 today Do you wish that contests were close these days. The current scoring makes things a little more dramatic, but there were days when it genuinely came down to the last set of votes. In the 1990s there were a couple […]
