BBC1 West Midlands carries programme about radio pirates this evening
| Credit: http://www.blogs.rnw.nl/medianetwork October 3rd, 2007 - 9:14 UTC by Andy Readers able to receive the BBC’s regional TV services on satellite may be interested to know that the theme of this evening’s Inside Out programme from Birmingham (1830-1900 UTC) on BBC1 West Midlands is pirate radio. Reporter Satnam Rana follows Ofcom officer Mike Bothma as he tours Birmingham’s streets, tracking down the illegal broadcasts that he says can interfere with emergency calls and put lives at risk unnecessarily. Satnam catches up with two pirate broadcasters to find out how they get their illegal broadcasts onto the airwaves and what drives them to do so.
