"It's like Britpop, except it's a car!"

Sorry, an in joke for those who have seen the old punk rock car commercial...

Though having looked at some o' BMW's marketing materials, that's not too far off.

I bet he doesn't say no!

According to Peel "he does it to fund his Kids through Uni" as mentioned on his show.

With "New Labour" introducing tuition fees and the Tories for starting the process of phasing out grants for loans in 1990-91 and then New Labour carrying on this Tory policy in 1997.

As each year goes by, being a student in Britain becomes progressively more expensive.

True...but please, not another Peel voiceover!

TV Go Home did a funny spoof TV listing for a show called 'John Peel Narrates... The Story Of Coathangers: Britain's most popular DJ lends his distinctive voice to another low-key documentary...'

Ha ! The ads page that is there now is hilarious. Are Enlgish people funnier than Americans? Shit!

Thank you for pointing me towards "TV Go Home", it is indeed hilarious. British version of " The Onion", if not better.

TVGH is indeed great.

Peel's ubiquity is indeed excessive these days - he even did the voice for an ad I heard on TalkSPORT earlier this evening! However, his reason is excellent (and I agree totally - the Lib Dems supporting the abolition of tuition fees was one of the main reasons I voted for them).

I seem to remember the old boy doing plenty of ads before the introduction of tuition fees.

Strange... I would have thought finding ILM was more difficult than finding Peel at the BBC website.
