To be honest, we don't know these guys personally, but judging from what we know about them, I'm sure James wouldn't hate to be associated to either ethnicity and would probably spontaneously laugh it off in his own manner. ♡

Yeah I think he's said he doesn't mind or doesn't mind the band being referred to as British. I don't want my comment to descend into a row about regional nationality. There's enough of that on Twitter! I'm a dual national and see myself as both. I like being both. There'll be others like me.

Similar here. Multi ethnic as well and I perfectly agree. The Manics are the true patriots, in my view. The ones who genuinely love their homeland and that's it, and they know it. No insecurities driving them into the need to prove how patriotic they're expected to be.
Besides that, you can totally see they're people of culture, and they couldn't be bothered with these nitpicky trivialities.

How long has Seano been doing that "wistfully looking at the camera" thing like he does in TSHHM?

Bloc Party, Babyshambles
Way before Doctor Who revival
Pete Townshend credit card cautioned
And Saddam Hussein was still breathing
Her friends think's she's different
Not taking offence at everything
But she's in deep so in deep
With two thousand
Two thousand
Two thousand and three

In old Cambridge town tonight, we have Therapy? and Sunflower Bean both playing the same venue (different rooms, irritatingly)…

The boys played in Birmingham last night, so they are (were) only 100 miles / couple of hours away...

When the TUVL tour passed through town last year, JDB mentioned Andy Therapy? was in the audience that night...

What are the chances of the boys stopping off here on their way home to catch up with Andy and Julia...?

No idea... I'm off to see Sunflower Bean tomorrow night in Leeds. Which is just up the road from Huddersfield where Sean supposedly lives now. I'll let you know if I spot him...

Well, didn't spot anyone in the T? room. They must've been watching Sunflower Bean instead.

June and Jennifer Gibbons are mentioned in Jimmy Savile: A British Horror Story . Marjorie Wallace talks about her concerns about Savile. The Gibbons sisters featured in HTV news when I was younger and are the subjects of Tsunami. We never talk about "that" remix any more

Funko is okay, but Nendoroid is much cuter. Although more expensive ^^". Posket would be cool too.
Would prefer a more semi-realistic style though.
