  • "Making Plans for Nigel" é uma música escrita pelo baixista , da banda de rock inglesa XTC, lançada junto ao álbum Drums and Wires, de 1979. A letra descreve o ponto de vista dos pais de Nigel, certos de que seu filho está "feliz em seu mundo" e que seu futuro na British Steel é "garantido", evocando mais um futuro enclausurante do que uma promessa de segurança. Em resposta à música, a British Steel reuniu empregados chamados Nigel para falar sobre satisfação no trabalho para uma revista especializada. (pt)
