*More of the year's best sessions and the second part of the 1985 Festive Fifty.
*Peel had apparently been to the Radio One Christmas party that day, and ended up talking with Walters.
*Claims he might well have voted for The Vibes track himself.
*Says that ‘Gut Of The Quantifier’ is his own favorite from ‘This Nation’s Saving Grace’.
