The UK's favourite UK Eurovision entries - Top 10

Ken Bruce revealed the top ten from the Radio 2 website vote yesterday, in his excellent programme from Malmö. I recommend listening to the whole show on the iPlayer in the next six days, as he had some interesting guests (Loreen, Michael Ball, Kate Robbins, Mike Nolan, Jay Aston) and a novel version of Eurovision Popmaster as well. The programme is here.

The winner was as I suspected, but not all the results were entirely predictable. (Scooch!) No sign of Nicki French or Jessica Garlick in the top 20 though, which is a shame and a shocker, respectively.

02 Puppet On A String - Sandie Shaw (1967, 1st/17)

03 Love Shine A Light - Katrina & The Waves (1997, 1st/25)
