Good Evening Vienna this is London Calling with How to be an Icon on Eurovision! In this weeks episode we talk all bout the history of the competition that started all the way back in 1956! we look at some of biggest successes from Abba to Celine Dion and some of the biggest flops like Scooch and Andy Abrahams (you know the bin man). The many rivalries and interesting voting patterns and surprising in-depth and fascinating geo-political ramifications that this silly singing competition has on a continent. The musical show that everyone loves to hates and hates to love! The original European Grand Prix. So grab yourself a glass of wine.... and another.... and another.... and maybe just finish off the bottle as we take a look at Eurovision!

(🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨 FACTUAL POLICE HERE!👮‍♂️ Moskau by Dschinghis Khan not actually a Eurovision entry but is often incorrectly sighted as one. The band did enter the 1979 Eurovision song contest for Germany with the song "Dschinghis Khan" not "Moskau" 🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨)
