Although purely fictional, the film does reference many of the actual events surrounding pirate radio. Namely, like the pirate radio ship the 'Ross Revenge', the Radio Rock ship is red with the station's name in white paint on the deck. Radio Caroline's ship the Mi Amiga sank, complete with fleeing DJs unable to save the ship's vast record collection and as in the film's finale, it's mighty high mast rose out of the sea where it stayed for many months. Also a DJ did marry on a pirate radio ship as Simon does in the film. Additionally the DJs are seemingly composites of popular radio personalities of the time such as Tony Blackburn (also unlucky in love in his early days ala Simon Swafford, when his rocky marriage become apparent in his radio show) and the wacky Kenny Everett has traits similar to Angus Nutsford. Dave Lee Travis, Whispering Bob Harris, American DJ Emperor Rosko and Johnnie Walker also are seemingly homaged in the film
