- A visual history of the UK's offshore radio stations told primarily through logos, jingles and broadcast extracts.
In celebration of the sixtieth anniversary of the launch of regular programming from Radio Caroline on 28th March 1964, this video presents an overview of offshore “pirate” radio stations, the target audience of which was - or included - the United Kingdom. - บันเทิง
I had a nickel everytime a pirate radio station was called Radio Caroline, it would be a millonare!
Top job 📻 I'm fascinated by the history of radio stations and the different bands and frequencies.
Thanks for the kind words!
Happy birthday to Radio Caroline!🎉
Fantastic overview of a fascinating area of UK Radio broadcasting.
Thank you - that's very kind.
You are my favourite channel, thanks so much for uploading this great and informative video!

@@thentertaineronyoutube Thanks for the suggestion. I will add it to the (growing) list
Thank you so much for putting this together..... It means a lot
Thank you - it is good to know you like it!
Fantastic job once again! This is my favourite TH-cam channel.
I bought “We love the pirates”
Great to see Radio Sutch get a mention 👍
...even if it doesn't sound the most, er, "professional"....! LOL!
Wonderful collection 👍👍 Greetings from the Netherlands 📻🇳🇱
Bedankt voor je lieve woorden. Ze worden enorm gewaardeerd!
Dank je, het was een geweldige tijd, popradio vanaf internationale wateren 📻
so, £100 in 1966 was around £1,500 in today's money. (calculation taken from bank of england)
keep that in mind - because that's quite a bit of money..
Brilliant! That must have taken a lot of work…
...which is why it took forever to appear! Happy coincidence that it coincides with the launch of Radio Caroline!

Though you aren’t really able to cover land-based pirate stations, I think you might be able to do a timeline of the Irish pirate radio closedowns of 1988, with all the stations that closed, the Broadcasting and Wireless Telegraphy Act of 1988 becoming law, and the few stations that stayed on after the act became law.
I'll give it some thought but - as I have said elsewhere - my main area of interest is the UK as putting the videos together really does bring back a LOT of personal memories for me.

"Please don't take em' away!"
1990: I don't think so
Sad but true!
this went hard
Not sure I understand?
@@tvradiotimelines Im just saying this was a Good video
@@Insert-thing-here-Fan Really glad you like it!
@@tvradiotimelines youre welcome! Is there any way you could do other countries, maybe like the USA (or just states if thats too big) or Ireland maybe?
@@Insert-thing-here-Fan I get quite a lot of requests for other areas but I have to admit that - for my own interest - my main focus is the UK (mainly because that is where I live and the nostalgia that the timelines evoke for me personally). I WILL bear it in mind though!
8:20 what song is this
It was the theme tune for Radio Scotland and is called "The Black Bear". It was first used in the film "Tunes of Glory" in 1961(?)
@@tvradiotimelines ta I’ve been looking for this for awhile
Are you resuming TV Broadcast timeline?
Not quite sure where to go next on the UK's timeline for TV. Much more scope for radio.
You back?
Never been away! It just takes a LONG time to do the research and put everything together.
and also I like your content (: @@tvradiotimelines
6:47 why did this sound like NBC chimes?
Mo idea! They were "pirates" after all! ☺
And also, what is this song on 2:02 ?
@@THEACTUALLDL123 I am afraid I can't help here either - it was the theme tune used by Invicta Radio but I have not been able to identify the name of the artist or composition.
Ok then
Bonjour can you make the bbc local radio timeline please
Strangely enough, I have been thinking along those lines myself. Might take a while though!
@@tvradiotimelines OK
19:37 can anyone figuring out what does the code about the annoucer say the message to seek help?
Edit: So, He said "Number 19, Number 40 times 2 (which is 80, depends the math ahh operations), Number 41, Delete the first two words (what's the words???)"
I am guessing that they had a numbered list of potential emergency situations and the codes told those on land what was going on without alerting the audience or authorities. Pure guesswork on my part, though!
@@tvradiotimelinesbut what's the answer of the code does he say as a result????
@@whatzyouruser10 I have no idea - I suppose the idea of using codes is that only some people will know what they mean.
hi guys
BBMS a few months after closure: You know what, lets become a country instead.
And thus, Sealand was born
You could not make it up! 😅
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principality_of_Sealand
it exists
Yes - and I gather you can buy a peerage there too!
@@tvradiotimelines you can
