pigeon in the studio
A racing pigeon has a rest in the Caroline studio. Tony says: “the pigeons were incredibly tame and you could pick them up. They would not leave - we think the high RF signal interfered with their navigation ability. The one in the photo was in the main studio, and took a ride on a turntable whilst on air - it knocked the record arm off - there is a recording somewhere of this happening, and Andy Bradgate just broke down with laughter. Later two of the pigeons had a fight and one died as a result. We found an old cardboard shoe box, stuffed it with diesel-soaked rags, put the pigeon in and gave it a Viking burial at sea. All the crew were on the aft deck. Chris Frisco played the last post on a kazoo and we all saluted as the burning coffin floated away - all live on air.”
