The Official 'Oh My God I heard the Manics on the TV/Radio' Thread II

I presume the old one got deleted, as I can't find it anywhere...so here's a new one!

I just heard Show Me The Wonder on James Martin: Home Comforts on BBC1. Random

Walk Me To The Bridge on the snooker tonight. We were actually there for it and they played it on the monitors above the table - WMTTB in the background of waffle from JV and Nugget.

A few days ago in a café I heard Anthem. That surprised me pretty much, never expected to hear anything of them in a such a random situation here in Korea. The Manics aren't too obscure here either, but it is certainly not the music you'd expect to hear randomly at a random shop.

Heard them the other day at work in the shopping centre, it was Tolerate. It faded out towards the end of the "aaaaahhh" part. Was cool to hear them.

Was surprised to hear Emigre on the radio the other day at work (a week on Tuesday I think), but as I was in a meeting I never got to ask what station. Probably Radio 2 or 6.

And again on a different episode on BBC2 at the moment, someone at the BBC must really like it.

OK, this is a bit tenuous, but every time this ad is on TV right now:

I can't help replying to the TV, 'No, It's not war...!'
