; Comments
*Peel mentions that he went to see the Pretenders play at Wembley Area on Thursday the previous week (21st May), to review the gig for the Observer. His verdict was, "very raawwwk, that was, and rather disappointing."
*There is a competition in the show to win a copy of the Fall's Peel Session EP on Strange Fruit: listeners have to guess which other Radio One DJ Peel saw at the Pretenders gig last week. The answer is actually John Peel himself, who went to see the band play for the Observer newspaper.
*Peel plugs his Eurovision Song Contest documentary, to be broadcast on Sunday afternoon (31st May).
*Peel also mentions in passing the friendly match between Scotland and Brazil that had been played that afternoon at Hampden Park in Glasgow. The visitors won 2-0, but Peel comments, "One of these days you know, the Scottish team's going to get it absolutely right and tear some team limb from limb, and I look forward to that a lot I must say."
