mick	i personally like the norway song but no way can i see a professional jury giving it top spot there were a number of better songs both east and west, even that danish or was it irish song was a better constructed song

I always believed that the juries may have been "briefed" to bolster the votes of the west, not that it made any difference to the winner. We all agreed before the contest that the eastern countries all had weak entries and stood little or no chance of doing well.

Anthony	Thanks, Mike, not that I'm exactly overjoyed to be home! My personal favourite was Bosnia, but with my objective hat on, I would probably have awarded the title to Iceland, closely followed by France. It would seem fairly certain that the juries will be kept in for next year.
