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.

  • Peel went to see Ipswich play Tranmere Rovers that day: Ipswich won 4-0.
  • John is doing the programme in a studio normally used for Radio 2 programmes, and misses the loudspeakers of his Radio 1 console: he describes the sound coming from the ones he is using as "a butterfly farting in a neighbouring county."
  • So impressed is he with the Pitch Shifter single that he calls the band to ask them if they'd like to do another session, but apparently receives a less than enthusiastic response. (They eventually acquiesced in 1993.)

(JP: 'Ah, I shall have the hang of this by 2 o'clock, you wait and see.')
(JP: 'Obviously I have no idea at all what the Vibes are all doing these days, but I hope that they're all well and happy and sleep well, because having made a record as wonderful as that is nothing to be sniffed at, I think.')
(JP: 'I have a favourite lay by myself, just off the A11, in fact I had about a twenty-minute snooze in it earlier on this evening. I think you'd be quite touched if you could have seen me there.')
(JP: 'Much misunderstood and in reality as cuddly as Care Bears)
