Nice work if you can get it.  Being paid money to complain about things
- why do I never get jobs like that?
 
On a more serious note - if you object to Peel doing the voice-over why
not write to whoever gave him the job in the first place?  And I don't
know the programme you're referring to - did Peel actually write the
commentary or is he mouthing someone else's words?
 
Incidentally, he played something by and was very complimentary to Pink
Floyd this week.  Maybe, just maybe, the criticisms of whatever prog
rock bands you feel so precious about were justified.....
 
> The Festive 50 how pretentious and over played is that
 
It's probably as pretentious as any other end of year poll
It's (over?) played once a year.
