Tony Blackburn owes his whole career in broadcasting to the pirate stations. He will tell you that himself. Still on Radio 2 all these years later. Very sadly Johnnie Waker is now terminally ill. Steve Wright passed away much too early.
Some poor memories on display here (must be their old age!):1. Radio Caroline actually started at noon on Saturday 28.3.1964. (Not 15.3.1964.)2. Johnnie Walker first went on air on Radio England on Tuesday 3.5.1966, the day the station opened. (Not October 1965.)3. At the maximum there were about a dozen offshore stations dotted around the UK coast. (Not 30.)
