This must have been a great time for young listeners! Never really had the chance to listen to it, while I was too young :-)

It was a great time. A totally mega great time, in fact, because there were about 12 other pirates at sea, too. The two most popular were Radio London and Radio Caroline.

The jingles were generic and are duplicates of jingles on famous US & Canadian stations. That said they were more exclusive on the British side of the great Atlantic pond. Love the good work the pirates did.

I listened BL from the 1st hour(radioo veronica was 1st) but not till the end in 67. the reason was i was 5 months in the middle east. as i came back i had forgotten BL completely and i still feel sorry for that. Jingles and dj’s english pop music i won’t forget nevertheless.

Please, please do this again from the start. It should start with the "Smooth Sailing" jingle. Thanks !

"The mast was 212 feet tall, 23 feet higher than Nelson's Column..." Really? According to Wikipedia the Column was originally believed to be 183' 9" (though it's actually 169' 3"). 23 feet higher than that would only be 206' 9". It's more likely that the mast stood 180 feet above the deck, although several feet projected into the hold and was anchored with concrete ballast.

Exiting times for radio. I’ll never forget the exiting MW band with dozens of new offshore radio stations popping up every so often. My favourite’s were radio City and Swinging Radio England, but loved them all. Now look what we’ve got. 🥹

Radio Caroline carried on, on and off, until the early 1990s; and was joined in the North Sea by Laser 558 in the 1980s; not to forget Radio North Sea International.
