Tribute to Colin Berry: The Eurovision Community received the sad news that on 16 Apr 2025 Colin Berry has passed away. Colin was a very familiar voice on the Eurovision Song Contest from 1977 - 2002 as being the Jury Spokesperson for the United Kingdom Jury. Further, Colin was also a radio presenter and newsreader on BBC Radio 2 and later on BBC Three Counties until 2016. He hosted various radio shows which very often also included songs from the Eurovision Song Contest. A very pleasant voice has been silenced. BBC Three Countries Radio rebroadcast Colin's last show which you will be able to listen to again - click here. Rest in Peace Colin Berry (29 Jan 1946 - 16 Apr 2025).
Tribute to Clodagh Rodgers (United Kingdom 1971): The Eurovision Community lost another of its members - Clodagh Rodgers who represented the United Kingdom at the Eurovision Song Contest 1971 which was won by Monaco's Severine with "Un banc, un arbre, une rue". The United Kingdom came fourth in that contest with the song "Jack in the Box". Clodagh passed away on 18 Apr 2025 at the age of 78. On the show this week, Radio International will broadcast a tribute to the singer and look back over her life and career. Rest in Peace Clodagh Rogers (05 Mar 1947 - 18 Apr 2025).
The Eurovision Spotlight - The Eurovision 2025 Land in Regions: All countries have now selected their entry to the Eurovision Song Contest 2025 and with this marking the end of the National Final Season 2025 and the start of the Pre-Party Season where the artists promote their entries to the fans at e.g. Eurovision in Concert in Amsterdam, Madrid Pre-Party, London's Preview Event, MancHagen, The Nordic Eurovision PreParty and Eurovision Party SKG in Greece.
Also Radio International's Salman went to MancHagen and the London Eurovision Party 2025 to conduct interviews with Eurovision artists old and new. Listen out the the interviews on the shows in the weeks to come.
Interview with Laura Thorn (Luxembourg 2025): Luxembourg returned to the Eurovision Song Contest in 2024 with Tali and in the footsteps of Tali is Laura Thorn who will represent Luxembourg at the Eurovision Song Contest 2025 with the song "La Poupee monte le son" which will be in Semi Final 2 at Number 13. Radio International met Laura at Eurovision in Concert in Amsterdam but also at the Madrid PreParty 2025. Get to know the young singer in two interview clips on the show this week.

Interview with Gabry Ponte (Luxembourg 2025): Also on the show this week listen to an interview Radio International's Salman did with San Marino's Musical Ambassador to the Eurovision Song Contest 2025 - Gabry Ponte. The interview clip was done at the recent edition of the London Eurovision Party 2025. Gabry is responsible for this huge hit of 1999 by Eiffel 65 called "Blue". At the Eurovision Song Contest Gabry, being Italian, will represent the tiny state of San Marino at the Eurovision Song Contest 2025 with the song "Tutta L'Italia" which in fact is the theme tune to Italy's San Remo Song Festival this year.
Interview with Go-Jo (Australia 2025): Salman also met and interviewed Australia's tenth Eurovision entrant Go-Jo alias Marty Zambotto at the London Eurovision PreParty 2025. Go-Jo follows in the footsteps of Electric Fields who performed "One Milkali (One Blood)" at the Eurovision Song Contest 2024.
