DJ,s of old.
 
Jack Jackson, Kent Walton, Kieth Fordice, Brian Mathews, Alan Freeman, Baby Bob Walker, Jimmy Young. Tell me is Jimmy Saville, Dave lee travis, Tony blackburn, David Simonds, still with us today?. There must be many more but cant think of any. Does Emon Andrews Quallify Remember his show, had some interesting guests on, was it a Sunday night, that was Bernard Braden I think.

I used to love listening to Radio Lux & Radio Caroline.
When I was a teeny bopper my best mate and I used to sit on the door step for hours listening to some of the best music ever.

Aaah, Alan Freeman and Dave Lee Travis, I used to love listening to them on the radio. Tony Blackburn has quite a lucrative career since being on I'm a Celebrity-Get me out of here. He appears on the telly quite a lot.:D

Kenny Everett had a radio DJ show.

Anyone remember George Elrick who used to do Housewife's Choice in the 40s and 50s? In the 60s they had a different presenter on that show every week, one of which was Ken Dodd.

Ahh but for me it was Ed "Stewpot Stewart" with Junior Choice on weekend mornings. I liked the comedy records and Disney sing along stuff especially but hated it it when the scots guy came in at 10 o clock on A Saturday a.m. (Stuart Henry??)

BTW does anyone else remember the cartoon videos for "4 Wheels on My Wagon" and "The Banana Boat Song"?? I do but some people round here are telling me that it's the onset of dementia.

It's a bad sign when I'm answering my own posts but I thought I would share this with any other telly addicts from the Golden Age of TV (ie when you could get up close and personal with the little white dot). Here is a strange version of Stan Freberg's rip off of The Banana Boat Song
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3qFRN_0qtmc
Now does anyone remember it??
