Musicologist Professor Derek Scott explores the elements that make up a 'perfect' Eurovision Song Contest entry. Professor Scott has analysed over fifty years of Eurovision entries in a bid to investigate the secret to success in the competition. His song, 'Be Nice to Nice People' is based on the findings of his research and incorporates elements which he believes to be key to avoiding the dreaded 'nul-points' and taking the coveted top spot in the biggest music event of the year.\n\nInterview originally recorded in 2011.
