From which film did the pop group Heaven 17 take their name?

Ignazia11, Study your grammar. It's not an error. Bands, teams etc can be referred to as singular or plural as they are a single entity but made up of individual components. In facts bands generally use the plural. U2 are great not U2 is great.

LaContessa, U2 arent great though!! although I take your point. I find them tedious , bombastic and overbearing. that's on s good day!!

Ignazia11, it's American vs British English grammar. In BE it's correct.
