The early hours of Saturday 30 September 1967 and the final BBC Light Programme closedown, recorded from VHF. From 5.30am that same morning it would become BBC Radio 2. At 2.00am, announcer Roger Moffat reads the news summary and weather forecast. Then at 2.03am he closes down the Light Programme for the final time.

And so it's Roger Moffat who earns a place in broadcasting history as the last voice to be heard on the BBC Light Programme.
