| - I want to slag off all the people in charge of radio stations. Firstly, Radio One. They outlawed the pirates and then didn't, as they promised, cater for the market the pirates created. Radio One and Two, most afternoons, run concurrently and the whole thing has slid right back to where it was before the pirates happened. They've totally fucked it. There's no radio station for young people any more. It's all down to housewives and trendies in Islington. They're killing the country by having that play list monopoly.

- After the Navy spanked all the pirates’ bottoms, and sent them home without any supper, most of the DJ's were given cushy jobs by the BBC (which just goes to prove that breaking the law can be highly productive).

Others from the pirate ships tempted to the Beeb included Kenny Everett, Simon Dee and Johnnie SkyWalker. Tony Blackburn took to his new job with rather too much relish (mainly Highly Passionate, HP Sauce type relish), presenting the station's first show only hours after being dragged from the sea, in drag, suffering from hypothermia and clutching a cuttlefish. His famous opening line on Radio 1 was "Yurlistenintothefantasticnewsoundovradiowoniymtonyblackburnaaaandthisizthumoove!" Nobody knows what he was on about but he played "Flowers In The Rain" by The Move just afterwards. The rest is history. The station was taking off and it started to attract a hip crowd of listeners after somebody played a Velvet Underground record before 6pm on a weekday! John Peel, who had previously been DJ-ing from a decommissioned navy submarine under the name of Bottom Feeder, was approached to do a hippy show called, The Stinky Garden. The show was a mixture of strange records and inane chat from Peel interspersed with chanting that would often run into the small hours. His listener-ship grew by 60% as he was the only person in the country that could play hip music on the radio. Tony Blackburn attempted to play 'Silver Machine' by Hawkwind during his show but lost his bottle by the end of the first verse, apologizing profusely to his audience. He was placed on suicide watch as a precaution by Radio One bosses. New DJ Alan Slag Anderson joined the station and struck up an audience with his new afternoon show 'Let's Have A Cup Of Tea And Cry'. It was mainly a mix of Alan recounting stories of his exploits in hotels with girls and the odd record. The Show hit controversy in 1971 when Alan swore repeatedly on air between songs and started talking about sex graphically. He was struck off and never worked in Radio again.
