The guitar legend sent a £3,000 cheque to repair Angel Radio's transmitter, knocked out by the strike in July. The station broadcasts pre-1969 music on the Isle of Wight. Director Bev Webster said: "We thought the cheque was a joke. But accountants confirmed it was the real Keith Richards. "I've written to say thanks. It is so exciting to think he might be a fan." A spokesman for Keith, 67, confirmed he made the donation but would not comment further.
