Dark intruder in the BBC....

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...
) 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

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

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

They played "Close To Me" by the Cure on a Cbeebies advert once
