Gilles Peterson’s Final BBC Radio 1 Show
Tuesday night saw the end of an era, with Gilles’ final show on Radio 1 after 13 years on the station. There were wicked vibes down at the studio with the extended crew coming to celebrate into the night!
You can still listen back to the show via iPlayer for another couple days.

To top it off, earlier this week the show was the most listened to program across the entire BBC network, knocking The Archers off top spot for about a day. Big!
The new show kicks off Saturday, April 7th, 3-6pm on BBC 6Music.
Also, check Lefto’s video from the night…
