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.

Tracklisting[]

(JP: 'Since I spoke to you last, I've been to the Isle Of Man for the TT Races, and I noticed a lot of licence plates from Austria while I was there, and it occurred to me that there might be people who listen to these programmes who were at the Isle Of man, and if they were, I hope they had an excellent time. It was a very very good week's racing. Next time, if you're going, let me know, and perhaps we'll have a beer or something. I'm not after your bodies, you know.')
(JP: 'I quite like it when records arrive out of the blue without any information at all because it means you can have no preconceptions about them, but I like that a lot.')
(JP: 'This is Nachtexpress, and I'm fat.')
(JP: 'Well, as you may have gathered from that, that was a story about the sinking of the Titanic, and legend has it that the last person to escape alive from the sinking ship was a man called Father Brown.')
