JUNE 1967
The Fab Forty is from 14th May. The Bee Gees, Tremeloes and the Herd (the strange picture above making them look like zombie movie rejects!) had all left the chart by the June publication date.
The feature on the right concerns 'Nonsense about DJs and More' and the names of Norm St John and Mike Ahern crop up!


AUGUST 1967
From the 'Radio London Fab 40' heading, we have to assume that a chart was published on another page of this edition. From the artists in the accompanying photo-feature it appears to be either from July 2nd or July 9th. Chris Farlowe, Jackie Trent and John Walker were all in the Fab Forties for both of these dates. The Who's Who of the Big L DJs prior to the station's imminent demise, carries an ad for the Philip 'Branch' Agency. A most unfortunate typo, as Radlon's MD Philip Birch had undoubtedly paid good rates for it, probably for the entire promotional feature.

Pirate stories on the righthand 'Piraten' column concern Caroline and 390.



SEPTEMBER 1967
'De Dood van een Piraat' - 'The Death of a Pirate' pays tribute to Radio London and other stations that were forced to close on August 14th and talks about the launch of Radio One. 'Jukebox' like most of Caroline's listeners, had great hopes of the two remaining stations surviving on international advertising revenue. The feature ends, "We shall overcome".

On the right, the top story concerns Veronica, the bottom one the end of the 'Isle of Man Rebellion' against the Westminster's Marine Offences Bill. Caroline North would be outlawed after all.


1969 (month thought to be OCTOBER)
'Gelezen in der Krant' - a round-up of stories from the newspapers, includes, 'The Days of Radio Veronica are Numbered' and 'New Pirate Soon on the North Sea!" – RNI was on its way!
