John is recovering from the Phoenix Festival held from the 14 to the 17th July.
The news programme which follows refers to the Buenos Aires bombing on the 18th July as being "last week".
Dating this show was more difficult as the tracks played correspond to those of the immediately preceding UK show, rather than one previous, which in most previous weeks they were. Presumably a show was not recorded during the Phoenix Festival weekend and therefore the World Service caught up by a week on the pre-records. On some previous WS shows judging by the records played, John has recorded two shows at once.
