Bucks Fizz star Cheryl Baker, who won the song contest back in 1981, told Heart Bingo that Bambie can go all the way to glory in this weekend’s final with their song, Doomsday Blue

The Bucks Fizz star, who won the song contest back in 1981, told Heart Bingo that Bambie can go all the way to glory in this weekend’s final with their song, Doomsday Blue.

“But then this one is also really quite dark! Almost demonic and could easily be the wildcard of this year’s competition. I also think that Ireland have added motivation to get the crown back from Sweden as they’ve both won Eurovision seven times now...” “There’s lots of good songs this year,” she said. “Switzerland was up there, it was tipped to win, but I’m not such a fan of it. I do think Croatia has a very good chance of winning as their song is a bit like Ukraine’s a couple of years ago when they won – it breaks into a chant that everyone can join in with. The whole auditorium in Sweden will be singing along on Saturday. Croatia will be up there and certainly in the top three.

Baker and Bucks Fizz won Eurovision in Dublin back in 1981 for the UK – and she says she had a blast performing in Ireland’s capital city.
