A girlfriend of mine years ago used to be a dancer at the BBC. She used to recount stories about DLT testing his strength at parties by physically picking up two attractive girls with each hand and in so doing ensuring his hands were placed in sexually strategic places on their bodies. My girlfriend one of those girls.

I love John Peel - the DJ but the more interviews you hear, the more words you read on-line, the more I'm persuaded he didn't really like any of the Radio 1 DJs, some possibly rivalled him with new music firsts. DLT was maybe disco/MOR but his shows were immensely popular and his background, like John's, in Pirate Radio playing new music. Anyway, as a person , sad to say, I wonder if he was a bit of a snob, which is fine related to music, but not to fellow man (and woman).

I think I listened to Peel more than any other DJ in the 80s - and consciously avoided DLT. That's because Peel played brilliant - sometimes awful - new music. DLT was genuinely annoying. But yeah, dissing a colleague on air is disgusting. Perhaps a bit of the minor public school boy coming out?

Peel had a strange relationship with the BBC establishment. They hated him but he was too popular to get rid of. I think he felt embarrassed about having to use it as his platform for fear of being associated with the likes of Noel Edmonds and chums. I think he saw mainstream British radio as a necessary evil in reaching the widest possible audience and promoting the bands he loved that otherwise would never have got played. You could consider his occasional comments snobbish or hypocritical but the BBC was absolutely toxic in terms of its politics and attitude and needed far more criticism than it got.

@@shirleymental4189 Methinks thou misseth the raison d’être of the BBC… It has an obligation to both educate and entertain. Peel managed both for the vast majority of his career while DLT was very firmly entrenched in the second option. I’m sorry you don’t like reggae. For my part, I probably liked about 35% of what Peel played, but the fact was that while the rest - to me - was unlistenable drivel, that 35% was magical. And new. And, yes, ‘radical’. That was the point, for those of us whose minds were open enough…

John Peel is a Legend , I listened to him when he had a slot right before midnight as a child. I’m 55 now and he basically educated me and shaped my musical preferences. The fact that people like the OP think the music he played was crap actually pleases me. They know so little .
