* The roundel, especially the RAF's, has been associated with British pop art of the 1960s, appearing in paintings by Jasper Johns. It became part of the pop consciousness after British rock group The Who started to wear RAF roundels (and Union Flags) as part of their stage apparel at the start of their career. Subsequently it came to symbolise Mods and the Mod Revival.
* Some of Paul Weller's material involves the use of a roundel in psychedelic colours.
* Ben Harper's album Fight For Your Mind uses roundels from several nation's air forces as graphics in the liner notes.
* In the British television series Dr. Who, roundels litter the walls of the Doctor's TARDIS.
