Kid Jensen made freeman of London
By CMU Editorial | Published on Tuesday 20 July 2010
David ‘Kid’ Jensen, you know, “It’s the Network Chart with Nescafe” right? Yes, him. Morning show DJ on Global’s Gold network and co-host of the Rick Wakeman Saturday show on Planet Rock. Well, he’s become a Freeman of the City Of London.
He was granted the honour in recognition of his charity projects and all his work flogging instant coffee to pop music fans back in the day at a ceremony at The Guildhall in London. I think it means he can now drive his sheep across London Bridge without asking first. How he’s managed thus far without that right isn’t clear.
The Kid, aged 60, told reporters: “I have always been fascinated by all aspects of the rich and colourful history of the City of London and so this honour is very special and will be treasured by me”.
