Ian Polmear at start, presented by Matthew Clarke. Voice of Lucy Fisher in there too. March 19th 2000. #radio #piratefm #cornwall #ianpolmear #lucyfisher

In 1998, Pirate FM ran short Cornish language bulletins every Saturday and Sunday after the 12 noon bulletin. These were pre-recorded by Matthew Clarke. Only one of these (to my knowledge) still exists - the first edition on 5th September 1998 - the day of the Cornish Gorsedh at St Just.

This was recorded at Lowender Peran October 1997. You can hear a Cornish poetry session in the Sunset Bar next door - very loud voice of Pol Hodge is evident in the background.

Seamus studied the sounds of late Cornish and gave a talk to the London Cornish class in 1991. I recorded him reading some of the traditional story after interpreting where the sounds sat on the tongue according to the work of Edward Llwyd.
