    COMPOSER Martin Isherwood says Eurovision Song Contest entrants Jemini were unlucky to score a duck in Latvia. The Liverpudlian duo became the first Brits ever to register the dreaded 'nul points' but Mr Isherwood from Salford says the voting was political and a backlash against the war in Iraq. The 38-year-old said: "Jemini did really, really well under the circumstances. It was a really lovely performance and it was very well received, one of the best received in the arena. Last night and this morning will be remembered as the Gulf War backlash."
