A new national radio station was launched on 30 September 1967 with the start of Radio 1. Radio 1 offered a diet of pop music, and was intended to replace the pirate radio stations recently outlawed by the Marine and Broadcasting (Offences) Act. "The swinging new radio service" - according to the Radio Times - took much of its style from the pirates and employed several ex-pirate disc jockeys. One was Tony Blackburn, who launched the station with the song Flowers in the Rain, by The Move.
