Eurovision Winners - Johnny Logan, Katrina Leskanich and Cheryl Baker

Ken Bruce talks to previous Eurovision winners Johnny Logan, Katrina Leskanich and Cheryl Baker, plus Fran Healy the Lead singer of Travis has a surprising pick.

Ken Bruce talks to previous Eurovision winners Johnny Logan, our last UK winning entrant Katrina Leskanich the lead singer of Katrina and The Waves and self-confessed Eurovision fan, Bucks Fizz's Cheryl Baker who competed in the Contest twice. Fran Healy the Lead singer of Scottish rock band Travis surprised us all with his choice, Brotherhood of Man's 1976 winning song "Save Your Kisses For Me". Irish singer Daniel O'Donnell was keen on Sandie Shaw's "Puppet On A String" but hadn't realised it was a winner in 1968 and the writer of that winning song was Bill Martin he came into the show and didn't choose "Puppet On A String" but a previous Italian entry "Volare" which he freely admits was a huge musical influence especially the opening elongated note.
