; Comments
*John is in the middle of playing all of the tracks from the posthumous Joy Division album 'Still'.
*Peel mentions having watched Top Of The Pops last week and being fascinated by "the extraordinary costume that Mike Read was wearing... It really was most peculiar."
*Staying with Mike Read: "I ruffled his hair once you know, in a friendly sort of gesture and he got absolutely livid. Said, 'never do that again!' I'm sure he was just kidding."
*John has a read through the new UK Top 40 single chart that was unveiled that day: "The Tweets up to #2! There you are you see, not everything's bad."
*Peel admits to struggling with the pronounciation of the band Schlaflose Nächte - "When I was a boy bands were called things like, 'Randolph Basingstoke and his Spa Hotel Rhythm Dandies' and things were a lot easier then. I blame it all on the Common Market myself."
*Also mentioned at the start of the show but not on the tracklisting are A Popular History Of Signs

:JP: "Curiously enough, I've been drinking an immense quantity of orange juice lately. I don't know whether this something which comes to you in middle age - who can say? Perhaps it does. But if anybody's going to die of vitamin C poisoning in this country it could easily be me."
