In the main, the offshore stations went off air each day between 7 and 8pm in order to not compete with Radio Luxembourg and to let the DJs watch a bit of Rediffusion/ATV or Anglia. But for holidays, they often stayed on air much later - although without adverts, again for Luxembourg's sake. Here Paul Kaye closes down Big L with a run down of tomorrows programmes and a reminder that they're on until midnight.
