He recently turned-up involved with a new daytime service of 'Big L' radio, which transmitted from Holland on 1395AM aimed at the UK and on the former Radio Caroline Spain transmitter, using the studios of TotalStar radio in Cheltenham, together with former Radio One DJ Mike Read, who himself had previously been involved with ‘Big L’ back in 2008, before he was declared bankrupt.
