Descriere

14th November 2012 marks the 90th anniversary of the BBC''s first ever broadcast and the beginning of the British love affair with radio. This book takes as its starting point those early, tentative programmes broadcast from Marconi House on the Strand, and follows the story of those magical radio voices through the years of economic depression, war, and austerity, to the swinging sixties and up to the digital era. Above all, it celebrates the great, the forgotten, and the notorious voices of radio from the last nine decades, and the programmes they made famous.
