Now Playing Meat Loaf Two Out Of Three Ain't Bad

Suzy Richardson was 'much loved' in Island life

The girl with the bubbly personality and infectious giggle

One of the most-loved personalities and best-known voices in Manx Radio's history has died.

Suzy Richardson passed away at the Hospice on Friday evening.

She’s been described as a natural radio talent with a bubbly personality and ubiquitous giggle.

Suzy started out on the radio in 1972 and stayed in the industry for decades, building up a big fan base who loved her easy manner and warm demeanour.

For many she will be remembered for presenting ‘Swap Shop’ a show which had its own characters as she recalled in a conversation with Alex Brindley in 2014, during Manx Radio's 50th anniversary celebrations.
