From a Doctor Who list I'm on:
John Peel, legendary broadcaster and maverick DJ has died at the age of 65 whilst on holiday in Peru. As well as championing new music and breaking the mold of british [sic] broadcasting, he also wrote a score of Dalek books, including 'War of the Daleks' and novelisations of 'Evil' and 'Power of the Daleks.'

The John Peel who is a Doctor Who fanwriter and author is not the same as the DJ.

I first thought our great obituarist may have been an overseas 'Who' fan who'd never heard of Peel, but his Yahoo Profile says he's 39 and from Southampton. Ought to know better, I'd say.

Yes. More politely than I would have done it.
