 * Comments
 * This was the first program hosted by David Jensen and John Peel during 1983, the pair cementing their partnership by making regular, once-monthly appearances during the year. This was the week's singles chart.

Peel : This has meant a lot to me, I must admit. This is a very important moment of my life really. Keith Harris & Orville. Peel : That’s one of the very best things since Napoleon’s retreat from Moscow. Keith Harris & Orville. Orville was the one in the woolly hat incidentally.''
 * ''Jensen : John, I think I’ll let you introduce this next act ‘cause I know they’re important to you, you play them a lot on your show.
