Dark intruder in the BBC....

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Just heard the beginning of 'Reptile' by NIN on the Politics show on an item about refuse collection. The footage was of an incinerator so I'm guessing they wanted some "industrial" sounds to accompany it. It worked well, but I obviously got very excited.

What with that and Alice '93 used to advertise (sorry inform, this is the BBC after all... :wink: ) Robin Hood, what is going on there? They've probably got a black clad assassin in their midsts.

So, anyone else heard anything of a similar ilk?

There's something on UKTV History (I think, since that's pretty much the only channel I watch), which is using "A Forest" by The Cure on an advert.

Auntie used the choral intro to This Corrosion in a piece on astronomy years and years ago.

Not recent, but at last year's Snooker World Championship they had a sort of video-bio of Ronnie O'Sullivan before one of his games and the backing music was Dominion :notworthy:

No Time To Cry was played over some BBC snooker coverage a year or two back as well. 8)

Actually, yes - I'm sure I heard a Cure track (can't remember which one) on a CBBC trailer a few days ago.
