  3. I saw this last night too. Couldn't believe my ears! Its a great show!

    In an episode a couple of weeks ago there was a scene in a teenagers bedroom. The boy was sat on his bed with a picture of the Cure (later than 1982 when it is set) on one side and a Banshees poster on the other!

  4. Tim Pope is involved in the show(not sure at what level), so he may have a bit to do with this?!...apart from the fact that it is a show set in the 80s and The Cure SHOULD feature...

  5. I watch Ashes to Ashes EVERY week hoping for some Cure in there somewhere... And the one time I miss it, All Cats Are Grey shows up. Will have to watch on iPlayer today! I'll re-watch the one with the kid in it too and look out for the poster; dunno how I managed to miss the Cure picture. I did notice the Banshees one though.

  7. I bloody love Ashes to Ashes and this was the icing on the cake...

    I was certain our dear band would be ignored as usual but no! And it was something nice and miserable too...

    Great episode...nice and dark.

    Time Pope's involved? It gets better!
