Gigliola Cinquetti's victory was the most clear-cut to
date, and remains arguably the most one-sided in history, given that it is
impossible to compare victories achieved under different scoring methods. The
songs performed on either side of Italy each ended up with nul points.
This is the only contest (with the exception of the very first
in 1956) which is unavailable on videotape. Regrettably, Danish TV lost their
only recording of the event. All that remains today are a few extracts
(including thankfully the winning performance).
The stage was invaded by a protester between the Swiss and
Belgian songs. An anti-fascist demonstrator ran on with a placard protesting
about Franco's regime in Spain. However he came on one song too early, and was
quickly bundled off without causing serious disruption to proceedings.
