Portugal by 10 points in Eurovision

  • Strong start: UK enters seventh place in ESC in second edition. Until 1981, when Britain was at its peak, he would begin a series of results in the first four regulars.
  • Three second places in a row: Between 1958 and 1961, the United Kingdom missed out on victory, finishing second three times in a row.
  • First hit: The results have already indicated that British conquest will be a matter of time and that it came in 1967. Sandy Shaw was responsible for the theme. Toy on a string.
  • New hit… but X-Aquo: Taken by Cliff Richard Classic in 1968 Congratulations Second place went to the UK’s second ESC success in 1969 with Lulu and the song Boom Bang-A-Bang. On that occasion, he had to share the honors with Spain, France and the Netherlands, in the only edition of the ESC in which more than one country won.
  • The beginning of the decline: After the Bucks Fish hit in 1981 (Making Your Mind Up), The United Kingdom had a significant drop in results. If he had missed the first four places only three times by then, he would have reached the zone of that classification only three times in the next ten years.
  • Last win: Last UK success began in 1997 with Katrina and Waves and song Let love shine a light. The following year he was still in second place, but after that he was only able to manage two more results in the top ten. The 21st century is Britain’s worst period in terms of Eurovision.
  • Zero points: Twice the UK did not get any points: in 2003 and 2021.
  • Eight times thirsty: United Kingdom hosts ESC eight times, last held in Birmingham in 1998. Previously, he had visited London, Brighton and the cities of Harrogate (England) and Edinburgh (Scotland).
  • Representatives of other countriesIn many cases, British artists or people of British nationality represented other countries. Mike Sergeant with Gemini for Portugal in 1978 or Azerbaijan-British Nikki with L for Azerbaijan in 2011.
  • Absent: Since its introduction in 1957, the UK has never withdrawn from ESC for any reason.
