The first Belgian record to make an impression on Peel was Plastic Bertrand's 1978 single "Ça plane pour moi", which was played on the shows of 07 April 1978 and 11 April 1978 and became an international hit. It made #5 in that year's Ripped and Torn Top 13, claimed to be "Britain's most accurate alternative chart" and played in its entirety on the show of 17 August 1978.
