As we all know, Glasgow taxi drivers can talk for Scotland, but back in the 1980s, we actually had one who sang for Britain.
"We've got a Euro winner here!" declared BBC commentator the late Terry Wogan on April 10, 1987, as telly judges selected Rikki Peebles' Only The Light to represent the UK at that year's Eurovision Song Contest.
Written and sung by Glasgow's own Richard "Rikki" Peebles, the tune was considered joint favourite to win the entire competition, with Rikki tipped to be offered a bumper £250,000 recording contract with CBS.
