Comments
  • Peel mistakenly plays Sink's Baby instead of Chocolate Love near the beginning of the show.
  • Peel plays a snippet of Kiri Te Kanawa's fake cockney accent of "Wouldn't It Be Loverly" from My Fair Lady to show listeners how bad it is.
  • Peel believes the word 'moist' is probably the most erotic word in the English language.
  • Peel plays an old track from Hermine covering Roy Orbison's Blue Angel, and a 1967 Motown hit by Gladys Knight and the Pips.
  • The singer Georgia Brown played here is not the Georgia Brown known for her appearances in West End and Broadway musicals (and for her authentic cockney accent), but a less well-known country singer..
