Like most then young people, I felt that Radio One was a somewhat pale imitation of 'Big L' doing the best it could with the restrictions placed on it at the time.

Yes...I sat up and listened on the same radiogram (probably the longest it had ever been continually used......well over 16 hours). Johnny Walker made the speech and it sounded like they were well and truly drunk........
Apart from the adverts during the day and the fact that they now had a Dutch address, they sounded pretty much the same.....at least until the money started running out and then they went silent in March 1968 not to be heard again until 1972...
