Seeing as they're all on YouTube. Mainly for the sets, presentation and voting.

The worst by far was Italy 1991. You barely saw the scoreboard and the hosts talked shit in Italian.

Luxembourg 1984 was also extremely odd.

The 1974 voting was also a fucking shambles.

I have become quite obsessed with the early 1970s voting. They need to bring this back.

The clips inbetween songs in Israel 1979 were also fucking dreadful.

I must say in rewatching I do NOT miss Terry Wogan.
 
1991 was fucking HORRENDOUS

One of the ones I utterly adore is 1977, which was hosted at Wembley. The whole thing was delayed by a month because the BBC cameramen were on strike, a STILL ONGOING strike meant the interval act was a pre-record of ACKER BLIK PERFORMING IN A PUB, and the male commentator introduced the first act as being accompanied by "a delicious pair of lovelies" :D You just WOULDN'T GET IT TODAY REALLY
 
I've legit been thinking of doing a Eurovision interval act rate. I don't think I've seen any that approach legit entertainment until Riverdance.

I think it was 1972 that had a fucking CLOWN.

So much sexism!!

One of my favourite commentators was the Irish lady for 1970 who CANNOT BELIEVE HER LUCK that she got to see Dana winning.
 
I've seen the occasional old one, including some cycling and unfunny people trying to make laugh, it was very odd.
