Thread: Peter Powell stunt kites

  1. #1

    Peter Powell stunt kites

    At half time in the football the boys put BBC4 on for some music and it was Top Of The Pops from the 80's.

    1. Legs and Co, or Pans People (whatever they were called at the time) were in full on lingerie and I'm sure not suitable for early evening viewing

    and

    2. It was hosted by Peter Powell the DJ. I told my lad he also had another career making stunt kites.

    Only now, 40 years later I find out it wasn't him but another fella called Peter Powell. Dream shattered.

    I would've had it nailed on that you would have said Enoch.

    Saw Peter Powell in the Radio 1 roadshow in Porthcawl around 1981, the crowd was enormous. Strange looking back, how those DJs were almost treated like rock stars.

    I wonder how many kites were sold because of the name?
    I just hope there's not a second Magnus Magnusson who made a living out of the classic Mastermind game.

    The title of this thread is akin to Partridge television show idea.
