Boxing legend puts vocal skills down to his Eurovision star dad
TOM BRYANT

BARRY McGuigan's impressive vocals prove he has music in his genes thanks to his dad who came fourth in Eurovision.

The former world boxing champion hit all the right notes as he joined Danny Jones for a rendition of the McFly song Shine A Light.

Afterwards, campmate Rev Richard Coles remarked: "Revelation of the evening, Barry McGuigan can sing like a canary. It was lovely."

But to those who know Barry, it is no surprise at all that he takes after dad Pat, who competed at the 1968 song contest at the Royal Albert Hall in West London with the track Chance of a Lifetime.

Among his rivals that year was Cliff Richard, who came second with his smash hit Congratulations.
