The Jolly Roger is pirate radio station on an old sea fort. A DJ is killed just as he sends a message saying that the station is sending coded messages to foreign submarines. Drake goes undercover as a DJ to find out what is happening.

The fort was either Shivering Sands or Red Sands. The aerial mast is a genuine pirate mast, possibly Radio City or Radio 390, but the internal shots are a set.
