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.

Comments

  • Peel mentions he bought his first suit in three and a half years.
  • Peel is puzzled by a letter from a listener last week who complained that he is playing too much Spanish music, which he responds as saying he hasn't played any. He then plays a Spanish track by Ketama from Madrid, Spain.
  • Peel says that his first interest before records was Motor Racing, where he collected photographs of the vehicles. He also reveals that in his house, his family are fans of Ayrton Senna and mentions that he would like to go to the European Grand Prix at Brands Hatch in a few weeks time.
