As the first female presenter on BBC Radio 1 and a true icon of music broadcasting, Annie's influence spans decades and genres. This unique collection offers a rare glimpse into her extraordinary career, featuring personally curated vinyl, signed items, radio ephemera, and music memorabilia that reflect her passion, taste, and legacy.

Check out this BBC programme, Punk & New Wave Years with Annie Nightingale to find out more about how Annie Nightingale led the way as Radio 1's first female DJ and introduced a generation to exciting new sounds as the face of the Old Grey Whistle Test from 1978. Back then, punk was hard to find on mainstream television and Annie sought to build a platform for young people to have their say.
