Transmissions: The Definitive Story of World in Motion

Transmissions: The Definitive Story of World in Motion - Four years on from a fabulous podcast documentary series looking at the history of the bands Joy Division and New Order, Transmissions is coming back with a new series next month. 

To tease the new series, and to coincide with the Euros, there’s a new four minute mini episode looking at the surreal history of World in Motion, the football that New Order released with the England team. The song, which was co-written by Keith Allen, notably featured a rap by former England footballer John Barnes.
