As it’s now December, many of us will be turning our attention to Christmas and begin decorating our homes for the festive season. Sadly for Eurovision fans, Christmas couldn’t really be further away from the traditionally May-held contest… after all, it’s a long time to go till Rotterdam, […]
BIRTHDAY: Daz Sampson from the UK is 45 today The ‘novelty’ song. Every contest has them. Just look at Carola. I joke. Carola has never been a novelty. But these songs sometimes do far better than expected. And some we can just point and laugh at. I leave […]
BIRTHDAY: Pearl Carr from the UK is 96 today It’s good to go right back at time. For those that don’t know, there was once a contest with only ten songs. Can you imagine that now? Well, compared to that, 1959 was a bumper edition. In that 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 […]
Duncan Laurence’s victory in Tel Aviv this May not only gave The Netherlands their 5th win at Eurovision, but also their first win since 1975 – a staggering 44 years ago! This got us here at Eurovision Ireland thinking… of all the countries that have won the contest, […]

BIRTHDAY: Teddy Johnson would have been 100 today It’s time for a bit of nostalgia. I jest of course, as many of you were not around in the 1950s. And even if you were alive, you may not have remembered the decade. There weren’t many songs, but some […]
BIRTHDAY: Lindsay Dracass from the UK is 35 today Do you have a preferred size of venue? Do you wish our favourite TV show – and it is a TV show after all – was in a small TV studio with people in their finery? Or do you […]
Details have emerged ahead of tonight’s Eurovision Choir in regards to who is producing the Contest – and unlike other Eurovision Events, it won’t be by the host’s Sweden. Ieva Rozentāle from LTV (Latvia) and Peter Maniura from the BBC (UK), will both be responsible for producing this […]
BIRTHDAY: Emma from the UK is 45 today Eurovision is mainly a young person’s game. Yes, even with the Junior version of our favourite TV show, the majority of performers at the senior even are in their teens and twenties. It must be the optimism of youth. In […]
BIRTHDAY: Andy Abraham from the UK is 55 today Do you think performers like to publicise the fact they’ve taken part in our favourite TV show? Do they make the most of it, or just pretend it never happened? When they’re selected, they must think that they’ll never […]
BIRTHDAY: Michael Ball from the UK is 57 today Runner-up day today. There’s been plenty of them through the years. Only one year – to my knowledge – has no runner-up. It’s a good place if you’re a host broadcaster’s entry for many reasons. And back in the […]
