hours of the audacious 3rd birthday party from 7th December 1980. The
authorities were obviously humiliated by this broadcast and they raided
Thameside the following week. This raid marked the end of the infamous

Thameside
was hit heavily by Eric Gotts & co. towards the end of 1981. They had
lost several transmitters in the raids, and were consequently dangerously
low on equipment. As a result they curtailed this broadcast prematurely
(rather unconvincingly). From October 1981, originally broadcast in mono |

James and The Intrepid Birdman from November 21st 1982. Interestingly Paul
refers to a news item about Radio 1 planning to broadcast past 7pm on
Sundays. That had a devastating effect on Thameside's audience figures,

closely |

the
decline of Thameside was a sorry affair with many missed broadcasts due to
constant raids. But when they did make it on air the programmes still
sounded fresh and entertaining. Starting at 10 am this broadcast was
raided mid afternoon and Thameside Radio was never heard again. 15th May
1983 |
