Edward Cole's Radio 390 photo album - part five
“Not So Jolly Roger”
In 1966 some scenes for an episode of the television series Danger Man were filmed on board
Radio 390's fort. The story involved John Drake, played by Patrick McGoohan, joining a pirate station called
“Radio Jolly Roger” to investigate a spy ring. These are publicity stills released by the production company ITC
at the time of the programme's screening.

ITC released a video of Not So Jolly Roger in 1992 but it has since been deleted from the
catalogue.
It is now available on DVD as part of a Danger Man box-set.
