Symptoms: no dinging alarm bell when you have the driver's side (left side) door open and the headlights (or running lights) on; no dash lights (no dashboard illumination); no clock light (backlight - the light behind the clock); no passenger side (right side) running lights, including no righthand tail light.
The cause turned out to be a broken piece of plastic on the glove compartment light. Opening the glove compartment door immediately blew the fuse. If Land Rover had spent 10 seconds thinking about this, they would have foreseen it. Oh well.
Here's a short video clip of the bad glove box light (glove compartment light) that resulted in the blown fuse at F8 in the fascia fuse box:

Check out this post from somebody who likely had the same problem:
1997 Land Rover Discovery, Fuse #8 keeps blowing. When it blows the passenger side exterior side and rear lights go out and also the instrument cluster.
What causes the fuse to keep blowing every time I put in a new one?
Optional Information:
1997 Land Rover Discover 4L V6
