I am most pleased to learn that Jonathan King - currently flying high as the nation's 'vile pervert' - has returned to pop picking form and made himself a nice profit from Eurovision 2012.
The man once known in the UK as 'Mr Eurovision' - he produced A Song for Europe for the Beeb in the 90s, amongst other things - tells me that not only did he predict Sweden would win but won £700 on it at 7-1.
He tells me he backed the winning song Euphoria when it 'was just a demo entry in the Swedish contest; I knew it would win; but nothing to do with stars or literary techniques - just me knowing a hit when I hear it!'
Unlike anyone at the BBC these days.
