Lyn Paul had previously been a member of The New Seekers when they represented the UK at the "Eurovision Song Contest 1972", finishing in 2nd place. The band 'Beano' would return to the competition in "A Song for Europe 1980" with a change in name to 'Scramble'. Nichola Martin and Ann Shirley were the two female members of the trio 'Rags'. Both women became instrumental in the success of the "Eurovision Song Contest 1981" winners Bucks Fizz. Martin herself returned in "A Song for Europe 1981" with the group 'Gem' (aka Paris); ironically going up against Bucks Fizz in the competition.
