The late Terry Wogan did, according to the Swedish producer of this years contest…
Sir Terry Wogan “totally spoiled Eurovision” by mocking acts in his commentary, one of the song contest’s bosses has reportedly said.
The late broadcaster was accused of creating a generation of Britons who see the show as irrelevant and “kitsch” by Christer Björkman, the Swedish producer of this year’s contest, who said he would never have given him the job.
Sweden is known for its earnest Eurovision entries and has won six times with contributions that went on to become smash hits, from Waterloo by Abba in 1974 to Euphoria by Loreen in 2012.
After success in the 60s and 70s, Britain “hanged” its perception of the talent contest, around the time Wogan’s reign began, Björkman told a music conference in London…
Nothing said about the awful music, you’ll notice.
