It was Fulham. Simon made reference to it on Facebook.
They seem to get a lot of TV work! I am still jealous about them being in the tardis on never mind the Buzzcocks and seeing David Tennant up close *faints*

I saw an Eb and a Monette trumpet in there... I hope they don't get disqualified for fielding illegal instruments.

They were also on the Paul O'Grady show a few weeks back...Am I right in thinking they've been on Eastenders too? I wouldn't know!

Not Eastenders. Buzzcocks, the One Show, 5 O'clock show with yer woman off Eastenders (possibly what you're thinking of), Tonight, and now Big Brother. That's all in the last year at least...

Was a fun day out- even though there was alot of waiting around, with housemates leaving and then treading on bees. Was strange playing a contest march whilst marching, then all being in a single file line... Never gonna be best standard that way- but very enjoyable!...

Yes, the strangest part was marching in single file. Marching through an unrehearsed obstacle course on live TV was normal by comparison
Who were you, BTW?

Yeah well, as always when the setup isn't specifically for recording music, it sounded much better live. And the environment was not the easiest to play in: I kept tripping over the steps, and half the time the band was split between rooms.
Oh yeah, we had a lot of deps in to
