Alan Partridge! lol

Is it one radio at john adrian, no, that doesn't sound right, that doesn't sound right, is it john radio or one adrian, no, that still isn't right, that still isn't right, it's so hard to think clear when your brain's not in gear, but whoever he is, he's alright. I know, it's radio one and it's adrian john, now that sounds alright.

Is this the same Pirate FM that was recently taken over by Greatest Hits Radio in 2024?

Looking at this Smooth Northeast launched with a radio broadcaster who committed suicide. Interesting about Magic and whether that would bother them. When Saga FM launched from Nottingham and broadcasted to the whole East Midlands the FM was very powerful got into most of South Yorkshire and parts of East Yorkshire where most of the area was covered by Magic AM in Sheffield. With the overlaps and powerful signal Saga had wonder if Magic AM South Yorkshire and Magic from Hull lost listeners for Saga. When Saga closed and changed to Smooth in the early days I could then pick Smooth up on 106.6 FM from Nottingham, then London Smooth on DAB but that changed to the dreaded Northeast version so I just relied on the better FM service.

i would have been 9 years old I remember the 102.6 Fox FM slogan so many times a day.

Lovely, they were capable of so much more X

I always remember when Eammon Andrews did This Is Your Life on the late, great Togfather. There had been claims that it was set up but, as Eammon explained in an interview before he passed away, this was not the case. They were both on a flight back to London from Ireland & were talking to each other about their individual shows. Eammon had noticed Terry was unshaven but, to avoid giving the game away, didn't mention it. Sure enough, when Eammon surprised him at the end of his Radio 2 breakfast show, the 1st thing Terry said to him was "You could've told me to get a shave". A really wonderful memory of them both

Smart fm

I met up with Roger a few months ago. Still going and is in good health.

I always wanted to work as a DJ at a radio station in particular Radio One when I was growing up in England, but I had no chance being a young Black kid in the early 70; s. Shame to say but I did enjoy and still enjoy listening to these guys from back in the day. These days thankfully things are different. I used to pretend that I was a radio broadcaster and ended up being a DJ for weddings and such, still to this day I love playing music and pretending I am an on-air personality.

Wicked radio station from back in the days. Big up crimewatch friday night. DJ smokey joe and B jam.

Terry wogan was a great broadcaster sadly missed by all we will never see his like again cheers tel⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

There was a fantastic commercial radio station in the West Midlands called Beacon Radio that did champion quality over crap and Splinter's "Costafine Town" was played a lot as an oldie as the station launched in April 1976. It really was the perfect antidote to Radio 1's ironic commercialism. Beacon Radio only lasted for three years as it broke so many IBA regulations and the American MD and Canadian PC were fired and the station had to adhere to a new format or lose its licence in 1979.

A must see visit but only if you need it 😂

SOUTH FLORIDA WEATHER

Went in there many a time from Westoe Boys school heading that direction now and again.

😍My kind of upload!! Love it!

I remember the North East Nightshift. The show used to start with Southside Johnny's version of "Oh the Air (Tonight)", originally by Pete Bardens, I believe.

I remember when that song was played on radio and loved it

So funny to see, my sister lives in the old studios now at uni.

Yes it does. For me it is Costa da Caparica Portugal. I just had to have this album.

Yes, 2-Ten used it till 99 (ish) then each station used their own local shire "berkshire and Northampshire's 2-Ten FM"

Did anybody recognise Kate Adie in the black and white archive footage at the start of this video ⭐👍🏼❓

Radio 1 247 awfull in most areas radio 2 1500 lw covers england perfect and stereo vhf

This is perfect! From what I've seen in the video, this is what I call a television-quality image campaign! Awesome job!

Wonderful. His TV chat show was live. No one is brave enough to do that now.

Love TB never takes his self too serious

What year was this?

Pure talent

Very under rated. He was ahead of his time.

What a fantastic song, I loved it at the time and it had the one and only George Harrison as producer! Love from a southerner! XXX

I love it when pop music is like classical music.

What's on the monitors⁉️🤔

So out of Synch.......😂

This is the same bed as New York City Weather that Z100 used!

This is the buffoon who is stopping us see classic shows. What a diva. Is he scared to show his hair cut again?

These moments captured of better times for many of us are priceless.

BBC Radio 1 Should Bring Back Jam Jingles

52 hours that mad, Don't think i could stay awake that long for charity.

This clip - in better fidelity - appears in "The Radio 1 Story" (Part 1) as does other KE footage.

Stu Allen

Music and laughter, BBC. =) One of my favorite jingles, but after 4 decades I still can't figure out where the music is borrowed from?

Instead of banning his Top of the Pop shows, he should have banned this 😂😂

What station is this? The date must be April 1987.

Ah, fast, slick radio without the posse/team format and never more than 30 seconds away from music. I wanna go back there again .... :-)

Radio DJs worked harder before the digital age. All of those racks of eight track cartridges for the jingles, up to three record decks where each record had to be queued up and ready to start as the fader is hit. Today's radio studios look so sterile, with just a few computer screens and no real skill or dexterity required to just touch the screen to play the next record or jingle. BTW: The news reader you briefly hear is Robin Boyle, broadcast on BBC radio for 50 years until 1998. He had presented programmes and read the news on the BBC Light Programme and the Home Service.
