- Mentions that he heard Half Man Half Biscuit on a Radio 5 show and during it Peel (if he was listening) was requested to give the band another session. Says he is always happy to do that.
- Peel plays a track from the Wedding Present covering Elton John's Stepping Into Christmas.
- Refers to seeing Shonen Knife live that week (see Gigography 1990s) and complains of a Melody Maker article on the band that didn't mention he'd been playing them since 1984.

- (JP: 'It's the time of the year in which you get curious printed Christmas cards from people that you've never heard of, and you can see no reason why they've written to you. I mean, here's one from Louise, Kieran, Joanne, Malcolm, Vladimir, Nicholas, Debbie: they've all signed this card and it says, "Happy Christmas and a prosperous New Year from all at Bulgarian Vintners." It's nice of them to think of me at this time of the year, but next time just a skipload of your products, I think. Skip the card.') 2
