we won in '97 with "love shine a light"... 22 years ago. the guys doing the bbc semi-finals coverage said france haven't won in 42 years, and on saturday graham said winners holland last won in 1975, 44 years ago. and of course recently portugal won for the first time ever, in their 49th eurovision appearance. there are, these days, typically around 40 countries that take part evey year - which would suggest we can all expect to win roughly once evey 40 years, if we all do equally well. only 18 more years to wait, UK! :rock:
