And RIP Ronny Carrol, I can just about remember him.

[New Judge]

He was standing for parliament as an independent in Hampstead. He once stood for parliament elsewhere with the aim of gaining nil votes. He did not succeed, polling a very respectable 29.

NJ, am I correct in thinking that Ronny Carrol won the Eurovision song contest long time ago.

Typical 50's song I liked to hear him sing 'Say wonderful things to me' Ronnie Carroll was Ok, a nice crooner like so many others back in the day. He entered in the Eurovison Song Contest twice came third and fourth I think.

Thanks ayg, I thought there was a connection with his name and the Eurovision song contest.
