In 1986 The Intrepid Birdman was getting creatively frustrated. It was 3 years since the demise of Thameside, and he was overflowing with programme ideas. He met a group who claimed to have a working transmitter, and The Clockwork Wireless Broadcasting Company was born. A test broadcast took place on Boxing Day.
Early in 1987 a few members of the Thameside team met to discuss a special broadcast to commemorate Thameside's tenth birthday. It soon became apparent that several old Thamesiders wanted more than just a one-off broadcast, and it was quickly decided to start a new station. The Clockwork Wireless Broadcasting Company lived again.
The team consisted of Dave Birdman, Terry Anderson, Aleks Wright, Hilly Downes, Buzby Berkley,and Ian the engineer who was to appear on-air occasionally as Lance Boyle.
