- Comments
- John had been to see the Police in Holland and enjoyed it more than he thought he would so they were booked for a sesssion despite having "broken through".
- Peel mentions that he's sitting in for Annie Nightingale on her Sunday night request show during the month of August, and expresses his disappointment with the small amounts of mail he's received for the programme so far.
- Peel reads out the list of 'records of the week' chosen for that week by his colleagues. "Andy Peebles has chosen 'Reasons To Be Cheerful Pt 3', Ian Dury & The Blockheads, which has already registered itself as one of my least favourite records of the year. Peter Powell, who's dep'ing for Simon Bates, has chosen 'Is She Really Going Out With Him?", Joe Jackson. Paul Burnett has chosen 'Love Will Make You Fail In School' by Rocky Sharpe & the Replays. Tony [Blackburn] has chosen 'Reggae for it now' by Bill Lovelady and Kid Jerkin has picked Patti Smith's latest."
- File a ends with a mention for his brother Frank and his wife, who are celebrating the birth of another child.

- Psychedelic Furs: Imitation Of Christ (session) @
- JP: "The last of a very fine debut session from the Psychedelic Furs and that's called 'Imitation of Christ'. And whilst we're on matters of theology, I must confess to being terribly disappointed that Liverpool are going to allow advertising on their shirts this season. It is important I think, and I'm really not going to feel right about going up to Anfield and seeing Kenny Dalglish playing the best football on earth and advertising radios and things while he does it. I suppose the next move is for them to all have to change their names to things like 'Kenny Music Centre' and so forth. I feel about it as some churchgoers might feel if the choir turned up with ads for garden equipment or patent cures for flatulence on their surplices. I was very choked when they allowed advertising around the ground. Too late now though I suppose. Probably the end of civilisation as we know it..."
("Kenny Music Centre" above is presumably a reference to Sanyo Music Centre, a horse regularly featured on the BBC's copious show jumping coverage at the time despite its then strict anti-advertising rules.)
- JP: "I don't know about being the end of civilisation but it's the end of tonight's programme. The end of another John Trubshaw's Patent Shoe Renovator show.... [Would] Anybody like to take advertising on the broad acres of my stomach? I'm sure somebody would like to."
