Tony Blackburn

Thanks Tim for all the memories. We pioneered the first breakfast show together on the newly opened Radio 1 in 1967 and you made it easy for me coming into the BBC having been on the Pirate Ships. Our paths crossed so many times over some sixty or so years and you achieved so much in the radio world to be proud of. Recently you and I were honoured by the ARIAS awards I am sad that I couldn’t be there to see you for the final time, rest in peace old friend.
