Gordon

He was the BBC's commentator for the Eurovision Song Contest from 1971 to 2008 (radio: 1971, 1974–1977; television: 1973, 1978, 1980–2008)

It seems he did it forever surprising he hosted only 2 shows prior 1980

i'm learning so much about eurovision history - i was only 9 in 1974. Had no clue that the scoring used to be like that. all seems pretty random!

there were so many ballads from people wearing formal clothes. ABBA must have seemed shocking!

Watching the end credits now. all seems so amateur.

Got something to say?
