Oldies

[Theblip]

This family is enjoying the new oldies radio station Boom, especially the lunchtime show hosted by Diddy David Hamilton who’s amazing for an 82-year old. Is there an older presenter on a British radio station you listen to or are aware of?

Tony Blackburn - 78 - does Sounds Of The Sixties.

Diddy David is a big softie!

David Hamilton might be the oldest DJ on air in the UK at the moment but Desmond Carrington was broadcasting on Radio 2 when he was 90.

Alan Keith presented 'Your Hundred Best Tunes' on Radio 2 at the age of 94.
