Hei Elei, Kuck Elei 
Hei Elei, Kuck Elei was a news programme broadcast on Sunday afternoons since 21st September 1969. It is known for being the first ever programme to be broadcast in the Luxembourgish Language. On the 10 January 1971 episode, there was a segment dedicated to the selection of Luxembourg's Eurovision entry. This wouldn't be the last time the programme would be used to host one of Luxembourg's national finals, as it would later host the 1989 and 1992 (after 1991 the show had changed its name to 'RTL-Hei Elei') Luxembourgish national finals. The national final featured three singers and three songs. The three singers were Monique Melsen, Marie-Christine, and Fausti, but the titles of the two non-winning songs are unknown. After the show, the public was able to send in postcard votes for their favourite of the three songs, and on 13 January 1971, after the winning song had been decided, an internal jury decided which of the three singers should perform the song in Dublin. Details about the format of the national final are also unclear, it is unknown if all three artists performed all three songs for a total of nine entries, or if each song was only performed by one of the artists. At Eurovision 
On the night of the final Monique melsen performed 8th in the running order, following France and preceding the United Kingdom. At the close of voting "Pomme, pomme, pomme" had received 70 points, placing Luxembourg 13th of the 18 entries. The Luxembourgish conductor at the contest was Jean Claudric. Each country nominated two jury members, one below the age of 25 and the other above, who voted for their respective country by giving between one and five points to each song, except that representing their own country. All jury members were colocated at the venue in Dublin, and were brought on stage during the voting sequence to present their points. The Luxembourgish jury members were Mady Heinen, a teacher from Differdange, and Michel Klein, a coadjutor from Diekirch. References
