For around a year from 18 February 1997, after moving to new weeknight 8.30 timeslot, Peel started most of his BBC Radio One shows with a vintage TV theme from the 'Television's Greatest Hits' CD series. In total, the DJ is known to have played tracks from at least six of the original seven numbered volumes.
