Tony Currie of Radio Six International passes away

Tony Currie of Radio Six International passes away 

Tony Currie, who, for the last 63 years has owned and operated Radio Six International sadly passed away on the 26th of September at his home on the Isle of Lismore. His family are very grateful to the support they have received from his many friends and colleagues in the broadcasting industry and beyond. Radio Six International will continue but for the present with a slightly reduced service. 

The RANDOM PLAY playlist will not be refreshed regularly in the forseeable future. THE LIVELY LOUNGE has come to the end of its run, although there may be some repeats in September. MIDNIGHT RENDEZVOUS will continue but with a variety of presenters and occasionally a repeated programme. This week John Cavanagh will be at the helm. 

 Our programme guide RADIO NEWS published since 1967 will cease publication immediately. Programme schedules will vary from day to day but details will be given wherever possible on the Schedules page. Our sincere apologies for these unavoidable changes.
