The UK's 10 best Eurovision entries

  • March 12, 2010
  • Popjustice

The act who'll be peforming the UK's Stock & Waterman-penned 2010 Eurovision entry will be decided tonight on BBC1. We were asked elsewhere to write a piece about the UK's worst-ever Eurovision entries and, in the comments box under­neath, someone has asked why we didn't focus on the best bits, too. So here are our ten favourite UK Eurovision entries. In keeping with what has turned out to be 'YouTube Friday' on Popjustice there's no com­ment­ary just clips.

1982: Bardo    — 'One Step Further'
