“Shaw herself was discovered by Adam Faith after she took part in a talent contest, and became the first British artist to win the Eurovision song contest, with ‘Puppet on a String.’ ... Shaw, whose real name is Sandra Goodrich, was working at the Ford car plant in Dagenham and as a part time model when she took part in a talent contest at the age of 17. Coming second, she got to take part in a charity concert and was seen by Adam Faith, the singer, whose manager won her a contract and gave her the stage name and topped the charts that year - 1964 - with (There’s) Always Something There To Remind Me” (Josie Ensor, The Telegraph, 27 March 2013).
