## Programme notes

* *Stuff the turkey, hang the stockings: it's the Janice Long Show Christmas Survey Special -crikey!*
* John Peel mentions on his show the same night he had listened to most of Janice's show, "*which obviously, because I'm working myself, I don't always get the chance to do, and I was most pleased to hear that I'd placed second in the Record Mirror Poll, I hadn't noticed this, in the 'Least Objectionable DJ' category: Janice came top of that*." The category was actually named "LEAST WORST DJ" and Janice had indeed finished first and Peel second (see image).
* Peel also mentioned he had heard Janice speaking to Billy Bragg on her show.
* In his own shown he featured nos 40-31 in this year's Festive 50. Earlier in the day Gary Davies had revealed Jackie Wilson's Reet Petite as the Christmas no.1 (knocking The Housemartins' Caravan of Love off the top.)

## Programme notes

* *Featuring a live session from singer/musician John Foxx , who fronted Ultravox until 1979. Including at 1.30am Pause for Thought with Andrew Graystone*.
* Janice remarks that it's twenty-two years since she last met with Foxx, at the Leadmill in Sheffield (she mentions Comsat Angels and Heaven 17). This would have been 1984, by their calculations, although Foxx had recorded his last session for Janice in 1985.
* Foxx has now teamed up with Louis Gordon.
* The track Slow Motion was originally recorded by Ultravox, when Foxx was lead singer, while Plaza is a Foxx solo track which first appeared on his debut album Metamatic (1980).

## Programme notes

* This week's guest presenter, live from the Oxford Road studios, is Tony Blackburn. Timmy Mallett hosts the Megaquiz and Janice Long's band to watch is Getting The Fear. Live music from Armoury Show, The Associates and UB40. Plus the phone-in quiz, film features, horoscopes and special guests dropping in. That's the menu for edition three of BBC2's electronic magazine. Janice's band to watch are Getting The Fear.

from compulsiononline.com

> *I never saw Getting The Fear, I was too young. I did however catch them on the Oxford Road Show where they were interviewed and performed 'Yurune', a song about teenage Berlin junkie, prostitute and Bowie fanatic Christiane F., where Bee stripped off his top to reveal his pierced nipples and navel to a BBC2 teatime audience. For a short time at least Getting The Fear were everywhere. "85 is going to be a good year; the year for Getting The Fear" Aky optimistically stated to Janice Long. He wasn't far wrong...[..] Bee's influences were, as he told Janice Long on the Oxford Road Show, Patti Smith lyrically and Throbbing Gristle musically..[..] 'Yurune' due to its appearance on a Janice Long BBC session soundtracked the group's sole TV performance on the Oxford Road Show resulting in one of Getting The Fear's most accessible songs filled with punk-funk guitars and a rhythm section of booming bass tones and powerful rhythms as Bee extrapolated on the torrid life of teenage Berlin junkie prostitute Christiane F. in a track revelling in the sleazy and sensual...[..] Fame, which Buzz told Janice Long on the Oxford Road Show they all wanted, ultimately eluded them.*
