*This was the seventh program hosted John Peel in 1984, although on this occasion he is not partnered by regular sidekick David Jensen, but by Janice Long, with a brief appearance by Bruno Brookes. This was the week's singles chart.
*Session artists and other Peel-related acts now very thin on the ground in the charts world. Queen are going down, Frankie Goes to Hollywood no longer at no.1 although still with two singles in the top 30. Rod Stewart just inside the top 20 and The Smiths are at no.17 with "William it were really nowt".
*Peel reads the chart rundown voiceover from nos. 25 - 11, "At 12 Master & Servant, both by Depeche-ay Mode and at no.11 here in the studio Alphaville - big in Germany, big in Britain, big in Japan.", and alternates the voiceover with Long from nos. 10-1: "At no.3 still, Agadoo - Black Lace, what a gem!"
