Farewell, FAB 208 (1992)
An affectionate look at Radio Luxembourg, launched in 1933 and for decades the only commercial pop music station broadcasting in the UK - and then only at night. Generations grew up listening to it under the bedclothes. But last year 208 went off the airwaves and now it can only be reached by satellite. This nostalgic portrait of "the station of the stars" talks to some of its former DJs including Jimmy Savile ,Noel Edmonds , Pete Murray , David "Kid" Jensen and Tony "Your Royal Ruler" Prince, about their days in the Duchy. And listeners, such as Cliff Richard and Tim Rice , describe how they heard their first rock 'n' roll on Radio Luxembourg.
