John Randall started his career on Offshore Radio in 1988 before setting up Island FM on the island in 1992.
He joined BBC Guernsey in 1999 when the station started it’s first local afternoon show.

In recent years, he had the evening slot on Mondays and Fridays in addition to a Sunday afternoon show.
Executive producer of Radio Guernsey, Michelle Danielle, told BBC News that he was “one of a kind” and “a huge part of us will always be missing”.
While Isla Blatchford said John had helped raise £40,000 for a number of charities over the past 20 years.
She said: “I think one of the best things about John was his ability to get people on board to help raise money for all sorts of causes.”
“He could talk anyone into anything it seemed.”
