Win a Roberts DAB radio

To mark the release of The Boat That Rocked, out now

Richard Curtis’s new comedy The Boat That Rocked is in cinemas now, and to celebrate Chortle is giving away five limited edition Roberts DAB radios.

Our winners will also receive a copy of the soundtrack – inspired by the Sixties pirate radio stations the film revolves around – plus a poster signed by the director himself. The soundtrack includes an exclusive Duffy song, as well as tracks from The Who, The Kinks, Jimi Hendrix and David Bowie.

Starring Philip Seymour Hoffman, Bill Nighy, Nick Frost, Rhys Ifans and Gemma Arterton, The Boar That Rocked is an ensemble comedy about a band of DJs that played the music which defined a generationm, in defiance of the government. In 1966, British pop music's finest era, the BBC played just two hours of rock and roll every week. But pirate radio played it 2424 hours a day. And 25 million people, more than half the population of Britain, listened to the pirates every day. Here's a clip:
