Good effort. So far (in Euro terms) we've had some Germans (Alphaville), Italians (Baltimora), Swedes (Europe), Norwegians (A-Ha), an Austrian (Falco), and a Frenchwoman (Paradis).

Can we make it a full European Union before the night is out? Needs to have been an 80s hit to some degree, in this country. No cheating. And Joe Dolce doesn't count

More Italians (well, the producers were, even if the vocalist wasn't).

I love the original, Yazoo version, but as the lead singer of the Flying Pickets died this week, it seems somehow appropriate.

I can't help feeling the Top of the Pops audience look rather bemused at references to Bodyline, Johnners and Douglas Jardine
