Yeh, plus I think I hear BoC on Top Gear, also DJ Shadow, Aphex Twin and Four Tet.

That's pretty much the only thing that lives up to the thread's title!
That's super weird and beautiful.

Youtube just recommended me this video:
I can't say I expected boc's music there at all. Especially not that tune.

I heard a BoC song on Top Gear once. As far as I can recall it was Dayvan Cowboy but I could be mis-remembering.

TG have used BoC in their pieces a few times. Most recent example
here - spot the tiny clip of Hey Saturday Sun during the campfire scene. Actually the whole video is worth watching just for James May getting down and dirty with rallying skills in Finland.

Yeah, you're right about Top Gear. I heard Clarkson got quite into BOC for a while. However, he just couldn't get the look right...

I hear boards quite often on adult swim, those little pauses they do when they just display [adult swim] either on the screen or in some kind of display/model i can't even explain. =)

Those are officially called bumpers or bumps.
BumpWorthy.com has a catalogue of different bumps, here's their BoC collection:

The only time I've heard BoC (I live in America so...not as many Warp fans) was on Adult Swim a long time ago.
I have heard of NPR playing Aphex before though but never witnessed it myself.
With their rising popularity (iirc they have more lastfm plays than other warp dudes) I'm just waiting to hear it in a store sometime.

I was just watching The Culture Show special review of the Liverpool City of Culture stuff on BBC2, and in one sequence they played a bit of Dawn Chorus
Quite faint but still recognisable
