The final live show of the extended long weekend was managed by Duke Anthony (left) with a few studio guests: Chris Cooper (centre, bottom), Tony’s O’Neil, Heather O’Neil & Keith Skues.
Duke’s final t-shirt of the anniversary weekend includes the words “back to the boozer”. This t-shirt was owned by the late Dave Cash, and gifted to Duke by Dave’s widow Sarah Cash on 14 August 2017 in Harwich (the day when Dave Cash’ ashes were spread in the River Stour next to the LV18 & Ha’Penny Pier by Sarah and Johnny Walker).

Many thanks to all the presenters and the support team who made this event a success.

The Pharos Trust also wishes to thank Ray Anderson (radiofab.com) and Chris & Mary Payne (radiolondon.co.uk) for their kind assistance and support – without whom this radio event wouldn’t have been possible.

And, many many thanks to everyone who contacted the station during the weekend – we have never had so many emails or messages!
