Who was Ian Fishwick? (Wigan Casino)

[Northernjordan12]

Hello everyone,

Who was Ian Fishwick?.

What his role was during the first all-nighter at Wigan Casino in 1973. It appears that his name is mentioned in various write ups, blogs, and articles, but there doesn't seem to be a clear memory of him. Did he only DJ at the first all-nighter?

Is he still around today? If so, it would be interesting to hear his perspective on those early days.

I tried asking this question in the Wigan Casino 50th Anniversary group, but unfortunately, I didn't receive any responses, so I thought I'd bring it up here. I apologise if this topic has already been discussed elsewhere.

I appreciate any information or insights!

Thank you!

Philip Fred Adedeji would know. He is on Facebook.

A site search for the surname, throws up some info

think the Steve J post/reply has most background from a local wigan view
