Following the late 1970s reshuffle and expansion of the Radio One evening schedule that saw Peel's Friday night show dropped for The Friday Rock Show (hosted by Tommy Vance), Peebles presented a show 8-10pm Mon-Thur (commencing 13-11-1978 [1]), immediately before Peel's programme. This was a development much welcomed by JP: In 1984, Peebles interviewed Peel as his guest on the My Top Ten show.
