Radio golden oldies

To celebrate it's 50th anniversary BBC Radio 1 has announced the formation of a digital pop up channel. The channel will play archive material from down the years from such legends as John Peel, Alan Freeman and Kenny Everett. There will also be interviews with some of the other DJs who worked for the station. Whether any of those who fell victim to the early 90's famed cull of the old and (for the target audience) uncool by then controller Matthew Bannister who was taking the station in more youth oriented direction make their feelings known about their departenture is anyone guess.
