  • Do any of you know who the reporter was and for what programme?!?

  • This was taken from the BBC programme 'Pebble Mill' and the reporter was Simon Potter.

  • .... to be slightly more accurate

    The programme was 'Daytime Live'

    a lunchtime show from Pebble Mill.

  • at 45 secs: LIE! radio caroline was originally aboard the fredericia, not the Mi Amigo.

  • Caroline and Radio North Sea International inspired our own pirate radio station in school around 1969... Radio Samantha!

  • @Bliksemdamian - the name of the song at 4:30 is "Dock of the Bay" by Otis Reading.

  • In Northern Canada, In 1967 I had a big areal and an old Telafunkin radio and I could listen to this, bounced off the Ionisphere. I also listened to Wolf man jack from Mexico.

  • Quote me if im Wrong Caroline Is now on SKY Radio, Is caroline then Still broadcasting from that old Ship and are they still Pirate ?

  • was zeer mooi dan hoor jamer

  • Broadcast from Llandovery (Wales)!

  • I miss seeing the "old girl" leaping like a gazelle in a Force 12, anchored a mile away from our ship in the Knock Deep, between Long Sand Head and the Kentish Knock...her original radio tower stood tall and danced in the mist of hurricane strength winds! Man, I miss those days and the lads!

  • I wasn't there, but feel the fun and excitement! The closest I came to hearing a pirate station was when I was in New Zealand in the early 70s. Everyone reminisced about Radio Hiraki, which was legal by the time I arrived. I can vouch for the high "lame factor" of government run radio! 3ZC in Timaru, although a private station, stank! They were notorious for playing only parts of pop songs. New Zealand in the early 70s was another world. Thanks for sharing these!

  • i used to go down to frinton,and flashed my head lights to get my records played,it worked,love it then,bring them back.
