Listen "1040: BBC Radio Brighton's early on-air debute - 1967"
Episode Synopsis
Snow's great news for local radio. Whatever the usual station allegiances, you can bank on the fact that you might attract at least some level of 'curiosity cume' from an audience hungry for information or just seeking to wallow in a great English drama.
The timing of such conditions were a little awry for BBC Radio Brighton, coming some weeks before its official launch in February 1968. Little wonder then that the station chose to launch, in a limited way, prematurely.
On 8th December 1967, with local residents trapped in offices and schools, the BBC's Frank Gillard asked the Post Office (which controlled transmissions and related matters back then) for an early start. The Light Programme even gave the fledgling service an excited mention and the Pavilion studio went live.
