Gefeliciteerd! Celebrating The Netherlands’ 2019 Eurovision Win

It was a big win for The Netherlands this year, as piano-playing Duncan Laurence stole the show in Tel Aviv.

To celebrate, go back in time to re-live some of the past Dutch Eurovision winners, losers, bangers and bops in the annual winning country retrospective.

Michael, Liam and Io all have their favourites and shine a light on some of the songs that you may have forgotten.

There’s even the odd bit of trivia in there for you.
