During April all the UK radio stations owned by the GMG group carried a two part documentary called When Pirates Ruled The Airwaves, presented by Bill Nighy, star of The Boat That Rocked and included contributions from Tony Prince, Tony Blackburn, Charlie Wolf, Johnnie Walker, Dick Palmer, Roger Day and Paul Burnett among others.
Part 1 concentrates on the birth of the offshore stations up until about 1966 while part 2 talks about '67, into the '70s, '80s and beyond.
The two parts are available to listen again or download via this link:
