Skiffling.....

Couple of wiki-related things on TV, skiffle, etc...

Made a rough wiki listing a little while back to try and pull together info on TV stuff (this is part of the Reference section on the left menu of every page):
http://peel.wikia.com/wiki/Peel_On_TV

Still have to add a lot of references/pages for individual shows. There is a brief page for OGWT, which used to had the skiffle clip on a youtube link of OGWT stuff - which now seems to have been pulled. 

(The clip is itself was released as part of the OGWT vol 2 DVD compilation:

Will sub in the new Terry & Gerry youtube link on the OGWT wiki page.

On the TOTP front, have to mention the mighty efforts of Adam to provide full listings:

> For all those interested in skiffle - John Peel tells about its importance in his own musical journey here that Stuart uploaded not long ago. On the reverse side of Tape 411 was a 46 minute section of Walter's Weekly, which includes a contribution from Peel on skiffle.

A wiki page on skiffle would be great if anyone fancies doing it - just the kind of thing the wiki is there for.

As well as the Walters show interview mentioned by Mark, the pair also discuss skiffle/Lonnie Donegan on show one of Peeling Back The Years. Recently did a transcript of this for the wiki:
