The Complete & Independent Guide to the Eurovision Song Contest 2015

By Simon Barclay

Book Overview

M ns Zelmerl w won a thrilling 2015 Eurovision Song Contest for Sweden. "Heroes" gained 14 12 points in the semi-final. Runners-up Russia were the first to score over 300 points and not win. Without the juries though, Italy would have won the Contest, Sweden would have finished 3rd. Hosts Austria suffered the dreaded "nul points" but Germany also scored 0 & thanks to the tie-breaker rules, Austria avoided last place. Cyprus startled everyone by not giving Greece 12 points. The 2015 Edition of the Complete & Independent Guide is the 8th edition of the book & as usual it's packed with details of every Contest since 1956. We've expanded the Guide again this year to include extra facts, statistics & records, including the full jury & public vote split rankings for the Final, analysis of how countries have voted for the eventual winners, how debutant countries have fared following Australia's success & how the final table would look if it was based on average points received. 286 pp of analysis
