This is a secret episode! Over the course of this series, several folk have asked whether I’d (David Lloyd) ever be interviewed. Several luminaries kindly volunteered to interview me. Given the calibre of all the other subjects, I felt reticent. But – with lockdown and also passing 100 episodes - I thought I might succumb. I invited my oldest friend, Mark Runacus MBE to pose the questions. He and I met at hospital radio and he went on to accomplish a huge amount in the ad world. Radio missed his talents. He has been a wonderful friend. In this hour of Radio Moments Conversations, I talk about my journey from shy anorak to radio station manager and regulator. I open up about my childhood, the excitement of hospital radio and the glee of my first gig at Nottingham’s Radio Trent, before moving on to management at a troubled Leicester Sound. Then, walking out the door in tears to no job, I tell of the unexpected task of establishing Lincs FM. Equally unexpected, I was recruited to the then regulator, the Radio Authority where I helped both to licence and reprimand radio stations. Moving from there to run the music and speech regional Century brand for Border TV, before crossing to Chrysalis to seize the reins of a couple of the Galaxy stations, London then beckoned and a wonderful stint at the helm of LBC, before leaving as it became part of the foundation for Global Radio. Down the road in Golden Square, I moved to programme and market Virgin Radio and help manage the brand transition to Absolute. The most recent chapter saw me at Orion Media, where we bought and then sold a handful of major market commercial stations including BRMB, Gem 106 and Beacon. In my own words – this is my story. There’s a much better account of all this – and everything that surrounds it in our mad radio world in my book Radio Moments (https://www.amazon.co.uk/Radio-Moments-Years-Life-Inside/dp/1785902725/ref=sr_1_1?) : Fifty years of radio – Life on the Inside.

Siobhan Kenny from Radiocentre talks about the support from government and Ofcom for commercial radio during the Coronavirus pandemic, plus how radio’s responding during times of crisis. Sean Dunderdale tells us about his recent move from Lincs FM to BBC Radio Lincolnshire, where his arrival on the breakfast show has been met with a different kind of output to what he might have expected. And Liam Heffernan from the Hospital Broadcasting Association lets us know how hospital radio stations are coping during the virus outbreak. Plus David Lloyd has more from the archives this week in history in RadioMoments. Processing by Ian Deeley. Voiceover by Hannah Patterson. Original music by Mcasso.
After almost 30 years at Lincs FM - graduating from rookie journo to head honcho - Sean Dunderdale left commercial radio in February 2020. Having hosted all his ‘last programmes’ (sport and the legendary Farming Programme), he dropped in for a farewell newscast. The bulletin was accommodated in a programme hosted by Eddie Shaw and just before another VO by Ed Bretten, both names who were also on air in the station’s very earliest days. It was thus a nod to the wise and a fond echo of 1992 just as the station prepares for its new owners to take the reins. Sean leaves the commercial industry having made a broad contribution which stretches far beyond his home station – and has remembered his roots through an ongoing ready support of hospital radio. Sean was one of the voices who created the reputation which Lincs FM enjoyed – as one of the last stations of its kind.

In the eighties, he progressed from Ipswich’s Radio Orwell to become one of commercial radio’s youngest programme directors as Ocean Sound was born. Against the odds, he then won the Lincolnshire licence and, at some personal risk, established that stand-alone major station in the teeth of bitter recession. Lincs FM was to be the foundation for a growing network. When a competitive licence bid didn’t go his way, his became the only radio group to challenge the regulator in court, rather than just threaten to. After almost 25 years, he was now one of the industry’s longest serving CEOs. This is the story of a quietly determined man with huge conviction who admits he never minds being in a minority of one. This is the Michael Betton story, in his own words. See the whole Conversations series here (https://www.davidlloydradio.com/conversations) . Music by Larry Bryant (http://www.larrybryant.com/) .
