ULTRAVOX will be making an appearance in the second episode of Electric Dreams, a BBC4 social experiment where a family and their home are stripped of all their modern technology to live a life of decades past. According to our TV mag and the link above, when they hit the 80s, Ultravox demonstrate the synth technology from that era. We're not sure if this means one, two or all of the band members (if it was filmed in April it could feasibly be all of them), so you'll just have to watch to find out. The first episode aired on Tuesday 29th September and will be repeated multiple times. The second episode, featuring Ultravox, airs on Tuesday 6th October at 9pm on BBC4.

One Off 99p EBay Auctions
We are having some one-off Ultravox auctions starting at 99p this week, ending Sunday night, 4th October - most notably three fully signed Return to Eden items: a SIGNED TOUR PROGRAMME, A2 SCREEN PRINT and A5 LEAFLET. They feature the iconic 'Rage in Eden' face and are fully signed in black, permanent marker by the band: Midge Ure, Warren Cann, Billy Currie and Chris Cross. All three items were signed on the second date of the tour, at the Glasgow SECC.
We purchased some A2 screen prints (£20 apiece unsigned) and a couple of tour programmes, along with a small handful of promotional leaflets to get signed, mostly for giveaways and competition prizes. Two screen prints, items from the band, CDs, signed postcards etc were given away at a free Voxgate event we ran in London during the tour; another screen print and one tour programme were given away in a subsequent draw; a further screen print is currently being given away in a draw for those submitting scans of tour press clippings, ticket stubs, photos etc to the site; and several more screen prints will be given away, one a year, for our annual Ultravox Covers Competition.
Only ONE signed screen print, ONE signed tour programme and ONE signed leaflet are being auctioned, starting at 99p, to give everyone else - who can't take part in our draws or competitions for whatever reason - a chance to own one. The photos you see here are of the actual items.
Cerise is also having a bit of a clearout - see the eBay Store for more Ultravox auctions, which include an extremely rare Monument tie pin / badge, sheet music books, 2 signed CDs and 4 signed tour programmes, plus a John Foxx leaflet signed by Gary Numan, a Peter Gabriel autographed photo and other unrelated autographs such as Clint Eastwood, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Ralph Fiennes and Alan Rickman.
