BBC digital radio station 6Music is planning a special show to celebrate the twentieth anniversary of The Smith’s debut single 'Hand In Glove'. Among the programmes planned are an interview with drummer Mie Joyce, a search for the most obsessive Smiths fan and a show where current indie acts will perform their favourite Smiths track. Confirmed to participate in the latter are The Thrills, who have covered 'Last Night I Dreamt Somebody Loved Me', Ed Harcourt who will perform 'Please Please Please Let Me Get What I Want' and Nada Surf who are recording a version of 'There Is A Light That Never Goes Out'.
