NationMaster - Encyclopedia: Eurovision Song Contest 1972

The Eurovision Song Contest 1972 was the seventeenth Eurovision. Monaco was unable to host this year's Eurovision as they were unable to provide a venue, so the United Kingdom stepped in to host it again. For the first time, however, the BBC chose a venue outside London. Severine made the trip to Edinburgh to pass on the 'Grand Prix' to Vicky Leandros. Image File history File links ESC1972. ...

Voting structure

Each country had two jury members, one under 25 and one over 25. They each awarded 1 to 5 points for each song. The jury was stationed in the safety of the Great Hall of Edinburgh Castle. Meanwhile the interval act also came from the castle, this time the vast esplanade outside.

The voting procedure itself turned out to be a rather dull affair, there was no real challenge to Vicky Leandros. Interestingly the winning score of 128 was exactly the same as Monaco's the year before.
