Even though it seems Peel did not mention the show on air and did not appear in it, he was referenced on more than one occasion. In The Taming Of The Shrew (Series 8, Episode 1), the joke about fully frontal radio is extended to him (Drop Gear, with John Peel), and he is more extensively lampooned in Starrek (Series 9, Episode 3). The team at the fictional Radio Prune are forced to make an alternative to BBC Radio One, calling it Radio Mindless (Cleese: "You can't get away with just noise!". Oddie: "Why not? Radio One does!"). Impressions of Jimmy Savile and Terry Wogan lead into a Round Table parody:

  • Even though it seems Peel did not mention the show on air and did not appear in it, he was referenced on more than one occasion. In The Taming Of The Shrew (Series 8, Episode 1), the joke about fully frontal radio is extended to him (Drop Gear, with John Peel), and he is more extensively lampooned in Starrek (Series 9, Episode 3). The team at the fictional Radio Prune are forced to make an alternative to BBC Radio One, calling it Radio Mindless (Cleese: "You can't get away with just noise!". Oddie: "Why not? Radio One does!"). Impressions of Jimmy Savile and Terry Wogan lead into a Round Table parody: Oddie: "John Peel, you've been very quiet. Are you dead?" Garden (as JP): "Well, you know, I just like to talk about the music." Oddie: "That's the last time you come on this show!" The song D'ye Ken John Peel was used as a parody of the DJ on I'm Sorry I'll Read That Again which contained the words: D'ye ken John Peel with his voice so grey? He sounds as if he's far far away; He sends you to sleep at the end of the day; 'til you're woken up by Tony Blackburn in the morning. Two compilation LPs were made available in addition to numerous cassettes of full shows, and the recent John Peel Archive project revealed that he had these in his collection. * I'm Sorry, I'll Read That Again (One Up / EMI) (1967) (place on Peel's shelf) * I'm Sorry, I'll Read That Again 2 (BBC) (1978) (place on Peel's shelf)
