1981 Eurovision Winner, Cheryl Baker, looks back on ABBA's career as the supergroup celebrates 50 years since their Eurovision win.

Baker told GB News of the historic moment: "They they just changed the face of it, they changed the face of Eurovision. And if you look at what Eurovision is now, I think that all started with ABBA's performance.

"It made people think this is much more than just a song contest. It's all about the look. I mean, the clothes, they looked fantastic. And even the conductor, he was dressed as Napoleon.

"It made it fun. A fantastic song, obviously brilliant singing, but the whole look of it just changed the way that Eurovision is."
