Extracted from Leon Tippler's 'Irish Pirates' documentary series. 4) On air on the afternoon of 7th April 1987 on the popular superpirate, Energy 103.]

Includes live Christmas N-O-V-A voice overs, special Christmas 'interviews' with the Nova Bingo Bonanza promo characters, Bob Gallico's brekky bits & 'It's Good To Be a Queen'. Pure magic. John E.]
