Here is the news about power cuts. Radio newsreader Alan Rogers tells listeners about

Here is the news about power cuts. Radio newsreader Alan Rogers tells listeners about the power crisis - with candles lighting his studio. An electricity cut blacked out Radio Londons headquarters as Alan was about to go on the air on Thursday night (10-2-72). But programmes continued, with candles and car batteries providing emergency lighting. The radio station was one of thousands of buildings hit by surprise power cuts - the first since the start of the five-week-old miners strike. The cold snap forced electricity chiefs to make cuts throughout Britain a day earlier than expected. February 1972 P018764
