I doubt if the designers of this poster intended to make “new town” Milton Keynes look like some post-apocalyptic dystopia populated by creepy zombie families living in concrete bunkers, but that’s what they ended up with.
No, I’m not going to post that Style Council record because I don’t like it much. This 1987 club classic (that they covered), however, is brilliant.

The Joe Smooth track you posted is good, but I like the Style Council version much more. Probably it’s just me, but I find that poster quite creepy, it almost looks like they’re willing to put down not only their roots, but their offspring as well..

I wonder what became of Mr & Mrs Fenton and their kids – did they actually put down roots in MK?

They moved there and were never seen again
