That's as maybe, but Peel doesn't actually pick the chart himself -
it's voted for (by postcard and, this year, through the BBC web-site)
by his adoring band of listeners.  Occasionally, in fits of seasonal
pique most becoming to a chap of his advanced maturity, he axes the
chart altogether and there is much wailing and gnashing of teeth
amongst the brethren.

A selection of Festive 50s stretching back to before most of you were
bleedin' well born can be found at:

You can hum all those old Fall favourites as you scan the lists...

Mike.
