Henry Morgen was voor 14 aug 1967 nieuwslezer onder de naam Gerry Burke,van hetzelfde nivo als de geroemde Paul Kay, hier wat info van de Pirate Radio Hall of Fame

Gerry Burke Just as the name Paul Kaye was synonymous with Radio London's news, so Gerry Burke will always be associated with the rival Radio Caroline South's Newsbeat. Born in Croydon, south London, in 1930, Gerry had previously been a journalist and worked in the theatre. The son-in-law of actor Bernard Miles, he had been in the Publicity Department at Lord Miles' Mermaid Theatre immediately before joining Caroline South in December 1966. Gerry was News Chief until August 1967 when he left the ship ahead of the introduction of the Marine Offences Act. However he returned the following year and broadcast under a new name, Henry Morgan, for a couple of weeks in February. As well as reading the news, this time he also presented some shows, using the theme tune Sucu Sucu by the Laurie Johnson Orchestra. During the seventies he made appearances on Johnnie Walker's Radio One shows as “Bill The Boilerman.†Under his real name of Gerald Frow, he wrote for a number of radio and television series including My Old Man, Young Sherlock and The Kids From 47a as well as for the comedy duo Hinge and Bracket. The Hinge and Bracket website reports that Gerry died in December 2005. (Photo by Richard Burn from “Radio Caroline†published by Landmark Press.

Voor de volledigheid nog info mbt Archer:

Andy Archer is the only DJ to have worked offshore in the sixties, seventies and eighties. Born on 22nd.January 1946 in Terrington St.Clement, Norfolk, he worked briefly on Radio City as “Terrible†Terry Dawson before signing up with the RAF. In late October 1967, having left the forces, he joined Caroline South, quickly establishing himself in the 9-noon slot. His theme tune was Herb Alpert's Flamingo. After Caroline's 1968 closure he worked in clubs but during the seventies was heard again on Radio Northsea International and the returning Caroline. (See The Pirate Radio Hall Of Fame ‘Seventies Supplement’.) Andy has been credited with inventing the term “anorak†to describe an enthusiastic, if slightly obsessive, fan. It dates from May 1974 when three boat loads of listeners went out on an excursion to visit the three radio ships then anchored off the Dutch coast. On Radio Caroline it was decided that they would mark the occasion by presenting a programme not from inside the studio as normal but from out on the deck to give the fans something to see. It was a chilly day and the visitors had sensibly wrapped up warm against the elements. The listeners heard Andy say that he was delighted that “so many anoraks†had come out to see the ship. From this one, off-the-cuff, remark, thousands of enthusiasts across Europe came to be known as anoraks and a new example of modern English usage was born. In 1974 Andy joined Tyne-Tees Television as a continuity announcer, later moving to Radio Orwell in Ipswich. In September 1975 he was one of the first people to be prosecuted under the Marine Offences Act and was fined for having worked on Caroline. As well as Orwell, he was heard on Devonair in Exeter, Dublin's Radio Nova and Leicester's Centre Radio. When Radio Caroline launched its new ship in 1983 Andy was there but, again, was caught coming ashore and fined (see The Pirate Radio Hall Of Fame ‘Eighties Supplement’). Since his offshore days he has worked on a number of stations including Invicta, Mellow 1557, CNFM, North Norfolk Radio and BBC Radio Norfolk. Andy has recently published his online diary of 1974, telling the fascinating story of Radio Caroline's return to the air from off the Dutch coast. You can find it at www.adroberts.net/andy/andyspages.htm. (The site contains video and audio, as well as numerous photographs. A broadband connection is recommended to appreciate it fully.) Now retired, he is also writing his memoirs. These are being published in instalments by offshore historian Hans Knot (see www.hansknot.com). There is a photo of Andy on board Radio Caroline South here

Openen lukt slechts met de VLC mediaplayer. 5 van de 6 files hebben dit. Alleen de laatste van Andy Archer net. Bij deze staat overigens als enige nog Caroline North.
