Harold ‘Peter’ Pickhover was a pioneering broadcaster in Newcastle, and long after he retired, he couldn’t resist the invitation to appear on radio late in his life.
Upon his death in 1991, he left 2NURFM a legacy to encourage new talent in radio. Each year, students benefit from various awards made from this fund.

This tribute to Peter features his colleagues and listeners. It was produced by Ray Hugo and Graham Wilson and gives an insight into radio from its early days in Newcastle, and Peter talks about his philosophy – ‘sanctified common sense’.
