The pointy bloke singing would be Terry Bradford, who wrote the song. This was the third SfE finals appearance for CoCo/ Main Event (bit of a cheek, going back on it two years after winning the final!), and Cheryl would have a fourth crack with Bucks Fizz the following year!
Cheryl is wonderful, but this song is very lame. Coco's song "The Bad Old Days" was much better. Nevertheless, thanks for posting this video it is always great to see Cheryl.
Minxbadge, the poster and the presenter (Terry Wogan on the video) both say that the group is called, 'The Main Event'. You say it isn't and give no alternative or explanation for your strong (!!) disagreement. Can you expand. I notice that Cheryl had 3 attempts at the ESC, 2 succesful, Coco and one as winner with Bucks Fizz. I don't like this much but loved, 'The bad old days' by 'Coco' (1978?). Does Cheryl sing (much/at all) as I don't tend to hear her in these bands.
Any chance of somebody sharing a studio mp3 of this? <3

For all you QVC UK fans. The girl on the far left (in the green jumpsuit) is Julia Roberts, a presenter on QVC nowadays.
