SYNTH BRITANNIA Oct 16 on BBC 4

Just got word of this from John Foxx's new blog,this'll definitely worth watching!!

BBC TV DOCUMENTARY Synth Britannia, the latest in BBC4's Britannia series, airs on October 16. John Foxx is interviewed along with Daniel Miller, Gary Numan, Neil Tennant, Phil Oakey, Martin Gore, BERNARD SUMNER, Cabaret Voltaire, Vince Clarke, Martyn Ware, Midge Ure, Soft Cell, Kraftwerk, Throbbing Gristle and Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark.

That should be interesting. Hopefully, someone'll post it on youtube for us that do not get the BBC.

I read once that one writer that influenced a couple of the synth-pop pioneers was the writer J.G.Ballard. I know Ian Curtis was influenced by him, as was Gary Numan & Ultravox.

I am SOOOO looking forward to this.
