The mv.Laissez-Faire housed two radio stations. Initially these were Swinging Radio England
and Britain Radio but in November 1966 Radio England was replaced by a Dutch language station, Radio Dolfijn. The
following year that too was replaced - by Radio 227 - and Britain Radio became Radio 355. Look Boden worked
occasionally for the two Dutch stations and took many photos of his colleagues on both the Dutch and English services.
This page shows Look and some of the English language broadcasters.
Before joining Radio Dolfijn, Look had freelanced for Holland's first offshore station Radio
Veronica. He stayed with Radio 227 until July 1967. He then did his National Service in the airforce. This was
followed by two years working in a record shop. For a year he was with TROS Radio, one of the main Dutch national
networks, as a DJ and a producer. After leaving TROS, Look started his own business which has now grown to a network of
fifteen shops as well as a distribution company. He still broadcasts and has been heard on Radio Rijnmond, Radio 192
and various other Dutch stations. He now operates a revived
Radio
227.
