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.

  • The David McCallum track, originally a 1966 single, is indeed by the actor who played Russian secret agent Illya Kuryakin in the 1960s TV series The Man From U.N.C.L.E., as noted by Peel. He promises further tracks from the same newly released compilation in future programmes, as long as he remembers.
  • Peel says has received letters from two World Service listeners this week – both of them get dedications.
  • The 1968 Fleetwood Mac track is played to mark the comeback of the band’s former guitarist Peter Green. Peel admits that he wrote the original album’s “rather appalling” sleevenotes.[1]
