It's not everyday that you hear Franco and Cliff Richard referred to in the same sentence, but here you have it.

It was claimed last night by Spanish TV director Fernandez Vila that Franco used his weight in the 1968 Eurovision Song Contest to push his country's entry 'La La La' to victory.

Vila announced that Spain's success was secured by Spanish TV execs bribing other countries in exchange for buying TV series from them. Franco is framed in this in wanting to "enhance Spain's international reputation", and Cliff lost to Spain by one point.

However, the last laugh is with Cliff as he continues to bask in the international success of 'Congratulations', as 'La La La' no longer features anywhere. It seems not even evil dictator Franco can keep down the might of Cliff. Nicely done Cliff.
