I dont know organs technically but i loved reading all the documentation as a glympse to another world.

The one and only Radio Victory radio like it used to be and proud to be Portsmouth

Chris what ever happened to Nikki Cragg I know Kim Robson went to eagle radio and rob persanni was at rutland radio

here's a brain teaser who was victorys vicar Fratton road days he was also the vicar at St George's church Portsea down by the dockyard.

the audio track is by a Catholic Musician who sadly lost his life but his songs are so led by the Holy Spirit he touched the lives of so many through his music. A truly charismatic and gifted singer. His name is Mike Stanley you can check out more at the following links below and links to the songs. www.cjmmusic.com/ ruclips.net/channel/UC5w3nTtTlnklqNnIP-ytfqQ (Link for Fishermans Music ) there are two versions of this song its called we will remember (armistice) and the other version is callled we will remember (Eucharist) his other songs worth mentioning the Prodigals return and the centurions song and Hail Mary these can be found on you tube if you wish to listen to them links below. ruclips.net/video/NOqw0JEnaaI/видео.htmlsi=3VDVSkKrC2ZDjH21 (Hail Mary Mike Stanley) ruclips.net/video/8eggpsbPLhY/видео.htmlsi=ZmV9DkMLMCKp_I84 (The Prodigals Return Mike Stanley) ruclips.net/video/cjJUSqd1MUA/видео.htmlsi=1pAYxcHTfscF0D20 (The Centurions song Mike Stanley) ruclips.net/video/bXVpHc9JUVY/видео.htmlsi=Vo5mJWI6ya1S97_U ( we will remember (Eucharist) Mike Stanley)

Interesting. During the portions when full organ is utilized, you can clearly hear a 16' reed in the pedal. However, no such stop appears in the specification.

please be aware there may be a few swear words

How about this then for public safety bus I was on just now smoke coming out the back and burning smell depot told the driver carry on until it blows up. So they are putting people's lives at risk no excuses I will take this further

Where is the largest UK organ?

I have double checked and the voice on its a goal is definetely Mark Samways if in doubt look at the Mark Samways tribute video on my channel which is a phone interview with Mark Samways and he states this on the call. the link is below for the Mark Samways tribute video ruclips.net/video/pvsXE2RHM1c/видео.htmlsi=MjPdsXsfLnJJXNaY

Thank you Natalie. It is so good to see these great organs well maintained. Sad that so many organs are unloved and cared for. 🎹

Thank you Natalie. I'm glad that I found and subscribed your channel on RUclips this morning. If you enjoy history of English churches and organs, you might like Ben Maton. www.youtube.com/@SalisburyOrganist

Good old Sambars!

Russ was Engineer at Express before he died. Quiet guy but knew his stuff

I wonder what the piece is called at the beginning .. a tuba tune of some kind, from 2.51 there seems to be a variant of it. David Johnson wrote a number of trumpet tunes, but I have not found this on You tube elsewhere yet.

Also mentioned in this interview The late Russ Tollerfield Chief engineer at radio victory

Has anyone got any old radio victory photos of the studios would be appreciated for archive purposes.

The studios were Fratton Road, Civic Offices, Kimgston Crescent, Tangier Rd and Media House at Tipner....

Fabulous memories...this from the last show i still have on tape cassette lol

I'm of the opinion that things are getting worse. Not exclusively the fault of drivers but largely the people who use it. Examples include not having their passes ready to show the driver when boarding, general rudeness and in some cases staff reaching their breaking point.

Name 5 locations where victory had studios

Just seen Anton in cosham and met him such a gent.

For its size ie number of stops and pipes it has a beautiful tonal quality 🤩🤩🤩🤩

Never knew Rippon had a cathedral, the organ sounds really good

Meridian moved from Forun One at Whiteley to Fusion One ...across the road at Whiteley...this was in 2012

How many times have people been refused travel because thier pass didn't work or been sarcastically told you should have put your hand out for the bus to stop. or drivers driving straight past without stopping or even missing your stop even though you pressed the bell.

This is an observation and everyone is entitled to thier opinion, the information in the description is fact and also Law

Quite a spec for a two manual!

Zo mooi!

I'm in the mood for dancing is one of the Nolans biggest hits and probabally the most well known

the Piece played is by Reginald Porter Brown Tuba tune

This is no doubt the work of Harrison & Harrison as the black boards on which the drawstops are mounted is an instant giveaway & this must be the largest of the cambridge college chapel organs of which there are several.

The Architecture is so Amazing Thank you 🙏🏼🤗💯

Such an Awesome Instrument that was built to last with class+Grace Thanks for Sharing 💯🙏🏻🤗

What is the piece called? I love it! 😊

Prachtig! Heel mooi geregistreerd!

Prachtig!!

Fabulous instrument. Better for the overhaul. My father was ordained a priest here many years ago. So a special memory. Thankyou for posting the spec. too.

I read that Sir Christopher Wren, the architect of King's, referred to the organ on the screen as "that infernal box of whistles". Can anyone confirm?

Love Winchester ,the acoustics are divine ❤️

Who started victory's receptionist of the year competition. He now lives in Spain.

Was the Astrologer Evelyn Gregory?

heres a brain teaser for any listeners back in the fratton road days. can you name victorys astrologer, here's a clue its a lady

I do know the where abouts of the 1975 sign that hung on the building and its still in Portsmouth

the opening shot is Cowes Railway Station

man of action by the les reed orchestra is used to remember Johnnies time with the pirate stations and this was RNI's theme as a pirate station

Amazing instrument!

This organ is of historic importance , just like the organ at Holy trinity Gosport once played by Handel.
