I agree. Peel was the only real outlet for hearing new music and he was written out of this very orthodox, dull and imagination-less series.

Two members of Wire mentioned in an contemporary interview that you couldn't hear "post-punk" music on the radio apart from on Peel's programme. This then cut to a short extract of Peel talking to the Slits.
