Shaun Tilley

Shaun presents the Retro Chart Countdown, an energetic show that plays each song in it's exact chart position from this week in the past. You can find this great show right here on 80s And More.

Shaun began his broadcasting career on board the legendary offshore pirate Radio Caroline when he was just 16 years old. This led to his big break when he became the youngest DJ since Kid Jensen to work for the world's most famous station, Radio Luxembourg.

During his long spell on "The Great 208" he presented all of the flagship shows including the Sunday evening Top 20 programme which had millions of loyal listeners across the UK and Europe.

Since then, Shaun has worked for stations in Coventry, Glasgow, Liverpool and South Wales. When he does get a day off, Shaun loves nothing more than to spend some quality time with his three children.

If you weren't doing this, what would you be doing?
