Fun Kids Silly is getting even sillier this weekend and rebranding to play non-stop sea shanties.
Fun Kids Silly has been helped by Nathan Evans, the 26-year-old postman who quit his job when he became a star with his rendition of The Wellerman in January. His song hit the top spot in the charts with a number 1 on the UK Big Top 40 and number 3 Official Charts.
Fun Kids breakfast show presenter Sean Thorne explained: “We received a call from some pirates on Monday complaining that we weren’t playing any sea shanties. I’m not one for messing with pirates as they threatened to make me walk the plank, so I got Nathan Evans on board with the idea of taking over our sister station Fun Kids Silly for the weekend and filling it with sea shanties. I think we might be the first legal pirate radio station in the country!”
