Timeline

1928

Douglas Muggeridge (2 December 1928 – 26 February 1985) was the controller of BBC Radio 1 and BBC Radio 2 from February 1969 until 1976.

Entitled Newsbeat, the programme still features on the network today.

1971

In 1971, he appointed Rodney Collins - known as a supporter of pirate radio through his weekly music newspaper columns - as Publicity Officer for the two networks in an attempt to gain more coverage for Radio 1 in music papers such as the NME, Melody Maker, Disc and Record Mirror.

1972

In 1972, Muggeridge signed up leading BBC broadcasters such as Tony Blackburn, Jimmy Young and Pete Murray to long-term contracts in the face of the challenge from the new local commercial radio stations.

1981

He was Malcolm Muggeridge's nephew.
