Anyone got a transcript of how he announced leaving? I was listening to that astro girl but missed how he said it/ what exactly happened?

On the last Thursday before he left he announced he was leaving LBC and that his Monday morning show was supposed to be his last, however he was telling people early because the weather forcasts predicted heavy snow in Kent, where he lives, so he may not have been able to get to London on Monday, missing his last show. So he kind of half said goodbye on Thursday morning but did indeed return on Monday, mentioning thoughout the show that it was his last. At the end of the show he played My Way by Frank Sinatra (one of his favourite singers) and that was that. Peter Deeley has left the building.

Thanks a lot.

[edit] LBC the first commercial radio station

"Peter is currently writing a book about the history of LBC - the first commercial radio station." Surely not. What about Radio Luxembourg, Radio Caroline, etc. Kittybrewster 09:48, 30 April 2006 (UTC)

Wow I am amazed on that updated picture of Peter at the desk there! He looks younger in that pic dont you agree? He has spme muscles too!

LBS was, as I recall, the first LICENCED commercial radio station in the UK. Radio Caroline and etc where unlicenced stations broadcasting outside the territorial limits of the UK, directing their transmissions to the UK.

However, as far as authorised, licenced commercial stations are concerned, LBC was the UK's first.
