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.

  • There is a competition in the show to win a quantity of Cranebuilders merchandise. (the answer is Cranes Music).
  • After talking for quite a while at the end of the Cranebuilders set, Peel comments: "This is the longest link that I've ever done in my life, I think. It's like a Sara Cox link!.... Oh, I've said the wrong thing haven't I? Alright, Chris Moyles then, cos he does them as well."
  • Peel says he owes the band Franz Ferdinand an apology for not managing to talk to them amidst the chaos at the end of the live programme from Groningen last week ("they must have thought I was fantastically rude"). A copy of their debut album had arrived at Peel Acres that morning, but his plan to play a track in the show is scuppered by a sticker on the record stating, "not for broadcast until Monday 19th January".
  • Hermeet is admonished for wolf-whistling Mary Anne Hobbs.
  • In the news: mass murderer Harold Shipman commits suicide in his cell in Wakefield prison; former England goal keeper David Seaman retires from football.
