John Peel Wiki

Changes to the look of John Peel Wiki will take place in the near future due to a new skin being rolled out over Oct/Nov across Wikia. Please see the Wikia Staff Blog for further details. On this site, the changes will affect the navigation from the left menu, as well as introduce a fixed page width with narrower content space. Please be patient while adjustments are made for the switch to the new system.

UPDATE: As the change is now in force for some users, I have switched the navigation to the simplified one for the new system. Please check Navigation in the Help section if you can't find things. I also initially made small adjustments to the front page layout, but have now reverted to the old look until all users are on the new system.

COUNTDOWN: Just a reminder for people still using Monaco that the final switch to the new skin is due on Nov. 3. After that, it will no longer be offered as an option. Sorry. Nothing to do with me.

(JP: 'Rather a noisy programme so far, and I think it's going to continue that way.')
(JP: 'They can run their tiny fingers up and down my spine any time they like....actually, I was wearing their T-shirt earlier on today, until I had a shower: a little tight-fitting, but it showed my breasts off to good advantage.')
(JP: 'Occasionally, if you have a job like mine, you get drawn into debates about sort of censorship and so forth, frequently actually these days, people saying some records are kind of too sexual, or too erotic in some way or another, and I say, yeah but most music is ultimately about sex (this is one of these kind of indefensible things that you say with a great deal of confidence, and everybody just goes "Mmm, mmm, yes yes, it's a good point," and you usually get away with it). I've even maintained in the past that instrumentals could be very sort of sexy records, and a case in point is....')
