Radio One's first female DJ has died aged 83. One of the groundbreakers in what was very much a man's world back then. RIP Annie.

I was reading about her about 2 or 3 weeks ago. Am i right in thinking she was the brother of the late Keith Chegwin?

Loved her on the Old Grey Whistle test, following a hard act in Bob Harris.

Hard to imagine she was older than my Mother, she always seemed eternally young in her outlook.

RIP Annie

Genuinely gutted.
Got her autograph when we used to bunk off school & spend hours outside radio 1.
She was really lovely.
Loved listening to her.
RIP ♥️

RIP Annie - her Sunday afternoon show while writing essays as a student (sort of) is a long lasting memory of my youth - Lazy Hazy Sunday Afternoons!
