Out now, apparently.

Yeah I saw it, but not in the bar you were in! Thought it was strange why they didn't play Neat Little Rows in the advert. Unless I missed it. I can't even remember the chanel, something like Sky Living. Ohh, have you seen Bridalplasty! lol

Last night and advert for Sky TV was on with 'Open Arms' instrumental as the background music.

Does anyone think Open Arms could replace One Day?????

Probably the same one that was shown dozens of times on Sky during the cricket I watched on Saturday. Incessant!

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but ITV are using ODLT in the advert for their impending coverage of *that* wedding.

Well, that's hardly surprising...

Better choice than Grounds For Divorce, I suppose

I think the lyrics of 'that' song are a bit too rude to use for a Royal Couple on their Wedding Day.

Thanks for the heads-up, NickF. Just to add to that, it's billed as 'Rocket Science: Profile of the anthemic Manchester band Elbow and the making of their latest album 'Build a Rocket Boys!'. Only 15 minutes, and on quite late, but I'll be setting the timer.

Just watched it back. It's been produced by Soup Collective so no surprise it has some beautiful sequences plus great archive stuff (Very early gig footage! Squee!!) and a very relaxed interview.

It's on 4od if you missed it:

It was great. I'd missed the lyrical link between scattered black and whites and lippy kids.

Lovely production from the Soup Collective.

Now on you tube full version really interesting prog.

What a lovely film.

Enjoyed very much. Thank you. x

The BBC Formula One coverage are using an instrumental version of open arms on their live show... a la how one day took off during the Olympics and Euro Finals...

I overheard a familiar voice on the TV last night. It looks like Grey's Anatomy has the barb! bug and decided to play The Night Will Always Win during the episode.

ODLT (of course) at the end of the Heineken Cup Final.
(Yay! Go Leinster!!!! )

Bloody hell, it's second week running on Grey's Anatomy: Lippy Kids on NOW!

Elbow 2, Snow Patrol 1...

Heard 'The Night will always win' on Greys Anatomy last Thursday!

Yes! I heard it too! x

Yup, someone at ABC must adore BARB. And what's not to love?

Lippy Kids on Greys Anatomy on Wednesday night!
