Bitter sweet tale for Irish Eurovision brothers 5 June 2013 Last updated at 06:45 Eurovision 2013 might have proved a "bitter sweet symphony" for Irish entry Ryan Dolan who came last in Malmo. He faced his Waterloo before a crowd who turned up their noses at bare-chested Irish bodhrán players. But brother Sacha had a song in his heart. Sacha was in Sweden cheering on his brother when he got a phone call from his wife to say he'd won the lottery. He scooped £76,918 in the National Lottery draw on 15 May 2013. Sacha bought £10 of Lucky Dips in the men's home town of Strabane and left them with his wife, Donna, before heading off for Eurovision. "We were enjoying a family meal at an Italian restaurant in Malmo on the Friday evening when Donna called me and told me that we'd won," he said. I didn't believe it and asked her to take a photo of the ticket and send it to me. When it finally sunk in that I really had won, well then we ordered up some champagne and had a bit of a party. "At a tenner for a vodka and coke, and £100 for a bottle of champagne, it's just as well that I won the lottery," he joked. For Ryan, the win was "a nice consolation prize." There are no losers in the Dolan family. "Things have turned out so well, there's no reason to get down," said Ryan. "Performing in Eurovision was all about getting my name out there and it's done the trick," he said.
