Deleted Content
editAn editor has deleted the following as unreferenced:
Doug Crawford originally a pirate radio DJ, and after a stint in presentation at Radio 1, became the presenter of BBC World Radio Club on World Service. Subsequently spent 35 years as a science interviewer for BBC, ABC (Australia "The Science Show"), Deutsche Welle in Koln and Radio Nederland. Voices many commercials, films and audio books
A search finds sources for most of this info, but the online sources I find are just blogs, or wiki references in other articles, etc. Though here is one for the ABC claim [1]. Additional info I found is that he also made important contributions to Start the Week, and BBC World Radio Club was also rather more important a program than the current bare content suggests. He appears to have been a significant enough figure in broadcasting at that time. I'm placing this here in the hope someone with access to printed sources can get more suitable sources.
