Enjoy the early moments of Severn Sound, &#39;holding a mirror&#39; to Gloucestershire on 23 October 1980. Great Alfasound jingles too; and always nice to hear a new ILR launch marked in the IRN bulletin.

The early days were, sadly to be beset by tragedy, with the suicide of the station&#39;s first MD, Graham Moon; and in 1983, the death of two engineers on an outside broadcast.

In radio, they are called PI. &#39;Per item&#39; ads. Those lengthy ads which get increasingly persuasive, not least because the more product sold, the more cash the station earns.

Here&#39;s a lovely example from the 80s. A rock &#39;n&#39; roll compilation LP under the &#39;TellyDisc&#39; brand. It&#39;s not available in the shops. The VO is the legendary Alan Freeman.

These were before the days of rolling TV news channels, and before even BBC 5 live on radio, so the only &#39;rolling news channel&#39; we had was a young LBC. Despite its own troubles as a struggling new business, it was certainly learning early lessons on...

New studios were installed at Alexandra Road by 1937, then described as &#39;the best in Europe outside London&#39;.

BBC Local Radio has enjoyed a number of differing approaches in London. Here, in its sex and soul phase, enjoy Tony Blackburn.  In slapstick non-politically correct mode, he&#39;s on-air in the 1980s on BBC Radio London, with the smile turned up to daring record levels.

As is well-documented, its music policy shifted; and staff joined and moved on. A typical case of a station finding its feet, amplified by the challenges of being ...
