Love Will Tear Us Apart was featured on an episode of Coronation Street. It played in the background as Sally Webster accused her husband Kevin of cheating in the middle of her birthday party. It was kinda cool. It reminded me of the climactic party scene at the end of Donnie Darko!

Minor note--Electronic's "Getting Away With It" played later on a few hours later. Made my day.

Saw the bumper, didn't watch the program. Thought is was Twist Of Fate though.
On Radio 4 Afternoon play at the moment...snippets of various 80's groups. They just played Blue Monday intro and Temptation! apart from hearing that I've kinda tuned out from what its about!
The royal wedding 80s telly drama tonight,, Ceremony,, the only thing that ruined it was Thatchers voice over it ,, we got virtually the whole version,, awsome....and the time it started 18.10.. spooky..
tried to make it all fit
In the magazine Crossbeat, for this month's edition, they had a big feature about the 1980s. They had a list of their top 100 albums from the 1980s.
Closer came in at no 30, and PCL was at no 12.
In their year by year articles about the 1980s, there was a picture of a very young Barney circa 1981 in the 1981 section, plus some stuff on JD/NO.
Various Warsaw numbers, the whole of Unknown Pleasures, Transmission and Love Will Tear Us Apart at the Factory Club, last night.
Both Norder and Joydiv on a BBC3 documentary about the English Defence League (what else has Luton given us?).
Obvious choice as a backdrop to fascist thugs on the rampage.
Just watching BBC drama 'Money' 2 parts back to back. In part 1 there was a scene with the main character dancing in a New York club circa 1980/1981 to Joy Division's Digital.
Realistic ? or just a 30 year late history rewrite ?
Actually the soundtrack is superb: Gang of Four, Banshees, PIL, but it's a bit of an odd one. I would have thought NY was in the throes of disco at the time.
Went to the library yesterday and the librarian who checked out my book was wearing a Joy Division Unknown Pleasures t-shirt
I hope this counts---just a tiny spotting of Freebass in the music magazine Rockin' On.
There was a picture of them amongst other pictures of other artists scheduled to appear at Summer Sonic Festival, and a short description below, stating that 'Hooky's new band Freebass' was to appear.

Watched that it was funny as f*ck!
Good spotting, the one with Frank Worthington, John Fashanu, Razor Ruddock and Carlton Palmer.
WiM at #29 in BBC3's "World Cup's Most Shocking Moments".
It's included as the exception to the rule that all England's World Cup songs are shite. Barnesey recreates his rap:

"World in Motion" was playing this morning as I was gettin' ready for work!
"We're singin' for England, EN-GER-LAND..."

It's also being used by the BBC for their daily look at the World Cup oddities in World Cup Match of the Day, in a piece originally titled "World in Motion".

"1963" was on the radio a while ago. And "World in Motion" was on my favorite Sunday night radio program this past Sunday night. ![]()
Small pic of Hooky in this month's Crossbeat mag. (It was in a feature about men in jackets.)
Plus, a bit of info about Freebass in there too.
Wolfgang Tillmans cites Peter Savilles' sleeve designs as an early influence in this article from the Graduian:
