    Late!

    The show started late   the first we hear from the Paul James show is at 7:20 which is where this recording starts. Mark tells us about the South Side Dynamos who he saw at a gig at the Kings Head in Fulham. They sent a demo tape which was played the following week. There's a re-recorded version of the Thameside theme about 40 minutes in. Still catchy and memorable - who did record it? Paul tells us about a Thameside benefit disco at the Shepherd's Bush village Hall next Friday - entrance £1. Some of the Thameside crew had split off to form Hilltop Radio which started at 6pm and finished at 8pm. This left the Hilltop listeners a chance to retune and catch to the Intrepid Birdman Show! Technical stuff: Thameside were under pressure. The previous week they had had two transmitters confiscated by the authorities in a major sweep of London pirates which also resulted in Radio Invicta, JFM and Radio Zodiac going off air. In addition Bob and Dave had been caught. This was the first time that any members of the Thameside crew had been caught in almost 4 years of broadcasting. Hence the benefit show in the following week! The team were late setting off and changed where they were going to set up their equipment from Trellick Tower to the South Acton estate. There were also gale force winds which made putting the aerial up more difficult. The first and last hour was broadcast from cassette, the middle two from 1/4" reel to reel. Mentions for SR Frejec of Lettice Street and Dave Booth

    Radio Centraal and Busted

    The end of the Paul James show. The Intrepid Birdman takes over. Dave plays a demo tape from a band called Kite. Sent in on reel to reel! He also plays a tape from Radio Centraal - a Dutch pirate - saying "hello" to Thameside. More about them on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_Centraal . Soem technical info: There is another transmitter change. The beginning of his show came from the blocks by Edgware Road (overlooking Paddington police station), the second part from the blocks in Bentford (as featured in People Just Do Nothing - a BBC TV mockumentary sitcom 2014 - 2018, the film is now in production). The broadcast ends when there there should be is another tape and transmitter change but instead it goes off air when it should have switched to a Petts Hill. While Thameside were monitoring the Home Office radio channel there was a battery fault with one of the handheld radios that Thameside were using to relay information. As a result Bob Edwards and Dave Birdman were caught and subsequently taken to court.

    Thameside 25May82 1900 Paul the Pope and a Thameside Radio transmitter change.

    Paul James takes the show. Sarah is back from Devon specially for us. Dave complains that Paul is talking down his nose rather than using his normal voice. Paul ignore him and carries on using his DJ voice and sticking close to the mic for extra extra warmth and bass. We hear from BT's "Pope Line" because the Pope is visiting the UK but he doesn't answer. Fortunately after a second go we finally hear to Pope talking to us. There is a bit of a pause while The engineers change transmitter. The DTI were hot on the heels of Thameside Radio - by changing transmitter the team made it harder for the DTI team run by Eric Gotts and Brian Holder to locate and confiscate it. Mentions for Bernard, Jellyfish, Chris, Denise and all intrepid Birdman Appreciation Society members, John Simmonds, Les Keely, Mazzie, John Henry

    Paul James should use Interpol

    The last of 15 hours of Thameside Radio's 1982 Easter Bank Holiday 1982 broadcast. After a mammoth broadcast The Intrepid Birdman hands over Bob Edwards. Bob won't tell us where he was. Mark, Ian and Dave are still at the studio so we hear from them too. The transmitter turns itself off duding quiet patches of songs - an eternal problem with the Thameside transmitter chain! It also says something about Bob's music taste, he liked songs that have quiet patches. The "bits of a Thameside DJ" prize turns out to be some of Paul's hair! Paul likes the surname Garfunkel and Bob tells Paul that he could change his name by Interpol. I think he meant "deed poll" though. Mentions for Mark Lynden; Laurence from Carshalton ; Trev Holmes from Ruislip ; CD breaker "Chelsea Girl" from Pinner ;

    Thameside Radio 12Apr82 20:28

    In this part of the Easter Monday extended show the Intrepid Birdman asks where Bob Edwards has gone, and with whom? He plays a lot of sketches including a classical spot featuring unfinished symphonies. We hear from  the telephone ladies who turn out to be Paul James, Mark and  Ian the Engineer. There's a Duracell advert too demonstrating how much longer they last on OAPs hearing aids before they get run over crossing the A40. Dave offers one of his lapel badges as a prize. 30 minutes in there's one of the long Thameside Radio 90.2 themes sent in by a (very talented) listener. Who are you? What are you doing now? Do write to al@fmthen.com People mentioned include The Cran, A Curlyman; John Pico from Pinner; Margarey Murphy of Tennison Road NW6; Steve Scribbler; Mick in Carshalton; Funkmeter aka Ian Wright from Garrard Cross; Ben Nakoneczny from Kew Road who found the bit of Thameside D Jin Hammersmith, he says "get off my sister" to Paul Starkey; Mr & Mrs Rogers in Ealing; Richard from St Albans; Mothball for Alison and Paul; Dave of Eltham;

    Thameside 12Apr82 19:42 Dave is At It

    Dave is in the studio in Harrow. He has an "interview with ELO" on a broken phone box (only Dave could do this... ) and then inevitably credits the next track wrongly. You may have to explain to your kids what a "phone box" is, what those beeps mean when calling from one, and what "Button A" and "Button B" are. There's a Duracell Battery advert - involving miners losing power in their lanterns in the poorest possible taste of course. There is also a quiz about finding a bit of a Thameside Radio DJ which is hidden by the Hammersmith Odeon in the grounds of St Pauls church. (Sorry, let the answer slip out there). The engineers have locked Dave in the studio so he can't nip out to the loo! There's a Birdman advert for "At It" magazine. At the time a magazine about being "At It" was quite outrageous, but soon they were available. Life imitating art again. Music includes Kraftwerk, Patti Smith, The Who and The Kinks.

    More from the Hill with Sarah

    More from Sarah who is playing the top 3 from David Bowie, Supertramp and The Human League, she is only presenting for an hour as she  is about to go to the Hammersmith Palais to see The Thompson Twins, The Sound and China Crisis. She she hopes that someone is ready to take over. What a busy life! We're also promised a Thameside listeners top 15 later on in the day. Fortunately Sarah is followed by the Intrepid Birdman so it doesn't end here. Sweatshirts are £6.50 and T Shirts £3.50. I wonder if we should do some more! Not sure we can keep the price at 1982 levels though. Lots of dedications - some on the phone line, others collected from the picnic on the hill. They include - Mike of Chalfont who says "Hi" to Bernard, Andrew and Brian of Amersham, The Intrepid Birdman Appreciation Society, Chris, Denise and Alex; The Ealing Headbangers and Eric the Fruitbat; Gerard from Hanwell says Hi to John Jill and Barry of Chingford; Bunny and Alan in Hanwell; Paul Shackleton and Heston; John Carr for his Mum and Dad; Robin for Kurt ; Gerry in Ward 8 in Harrow Hospital for all the nurses; Pete, Dave, PAul and Sean in Grenwich; Dave and Moira in Wimbledon; Dave, Benedict and Beatrice who is a Rubber Duck! (I'm guessing that's a CB thing)
