1944 - 1995
Kenny Everett made his broadcasting debut on the offshore station Radio London. His surreal sense of humour rapidly established him as an outstanding pirate radio personality. He was one of the original BBC Radio 1 presenters, but fell out of favour after a misguided on-air comment. Although he returned to the station, he moved to London's Capital Radio shortly after it launched. At the time of his death, he had a successful career in television and divided his energies between both media.
