From the Felixstowe and Offshore Radio Facebook page:
More sad news to report, with news of the passing of Radio Caroline Flashback presenter Bill Rollins at the beginning of October 2014.
Beginning his offshore radio career on Tower Radio & TV on Sunk Head Fort in 1965, he later worked for East Anglian Productions, and was a Radio Caroline ‘link man’ on shore during the 1980’s, supplying the ‘Lotto 649’ results to the Ross Revenge, while his voice could often be heard on tape in between the ‘Viewpoint 963’ programmes.
Bill kindly came and supported some of our events since 2014, and was always willing to share his knowledge and any items that he thought would be of interest to us.
His health had been poor for sometime, and we appreciated the effort he made to join us in 2022 at Martello ‘P’ Tower. He will be sadly missed by many people in the offshore radio world.
