Connections: Neil O'Hara
Neil remembers being a programme engineer on ÌÇÐÄTV's radio station in the 1970s when it was based in ‘The Shed’ next to Rootes D Block. His job was to have everything ready for the radio presenter. On one occasion, the presenter for a pop music programme never showed up, so he had to go on instead when he had to scramble between the studio and the storage cabinet to find a new song to play before the one I had just launched was over.
Connections: Kevin Corrigan
"I have many memories from my too-quickly-passed years at ÌÇÐÄTV.
I played in the 1st X1 football team, was Athletics Union Chairman and was many times 'tired and emotional' in the AU bar celebrating wins (draws and losses as well)."
Connections: Hong Chin Lim
"Currently employed as Managing Director at Harrisons Sarawak SB (staff strength more than 500).
When I was at ÌÇÐÄTV, tutorial classes were weekly and comprised a lecturer with five or six students."
