"the venue was first opened in 1951 and was originally conceived for use during the Festival of Britain": suggest "during that year's Festival of Britain".
"commentary between each act was provided by the respective broadcasters": "respective broadcasters" is not clear since we haven't said anything about broadcasting yet. How about "Boyle presided over the opening of the contest and the voting process, while the various national broadcasters that carried the show provided commentary between each act, with the United Kingdom's commentator David Jacobs also being heard by the assembled audience of over 2,500 people in the hall"?
Boyer's relationship to Pills is mentioned twice in the body.
Spotchecks:
FN 14 cites 'Fud Leclerc made his third appearance at the contest for Belgium, having previously represented the country in 1956 with "Messieurs les noyés de la Seine" (one of the two Belgian entries in that year's contest) and in 1958 with "Ma petite chatte".' Verified.
FN 16 cites "The winner was France represented by the song "Tom Pillibi", composed by André Popp, written by Pierre Cour and performed by Jacqueline Boyer". Looks like an editing error here -- the link goes to a page about a different participant.
@Mike Christie: Thanks again. I've now finished the tweaks and fixes described above, and replaced the auditorium image with an alternative until a full review of the original is conducted (I added a tag to the image page on commons to let admins know that this requires review).
