Optical and radio behaviours of OJ 287 in the recent outburst are presented. The light curve is similar to that in the previous outburst in 1970–1971, although the maximum brightness is about 1 mag fainter. The intraday variations are found in both optical and radio regions. We find no periodicity of time scales less than 0.2 days.
