Here are some photo released for the launch of BBC Radio Shropshire in 1985. Diane Kemp was a launch presenter of the Breakfast show and went on to present Midlands Today. She is now a Professor at Birmingham City University (BCU). David Holdsworth was a reporter on Radio Shropshire and went on to become Controller of the English Regions. Bob Calver was the news editor of the launch of BBC Shropshire, he went on to become Home Duty Editor for the corporation’s national radio networks, and later a Senior Lecturer of Broadcast Journalism at BCU. They all look so young in these photos.
