danger mouse

inspector gadget

heathcliff reminds me slightly of the middle of the happy days theme tune

fraggle rock though I remember someone singing slightly different lyrics to this in the school playground -

"down at fraggle rock
grab a fraggle by his c*ck
swing him round and round
now he's dead"

etc.

I am a sucker for british crime series, and I love the theme music from Inspector Morse and from the crime series featuring the PD James character Adam Dalgliesh (don't quite remember the name of that one).

Ooh.. Almost forgot.. The theme music from GBH (old union activism drama from the nineties).

I don't know if they have kept the music from the old episodes (haven't seen the new episodes with Martin Shaw). The music I remember is from the early eighties (when Roy Marsden was playing Dalgliesh). I remember it as a very melancholic string piece.

It was an epic Barrington Pheloung number (same bloke who did the excellent Inspector Morse theme)... And yes, brill prog

Done by the same band that brought us songs like "Fight For Your Right To Masterbate" and "I've Got A Boner For X-Mas", no less.

Morricone's Chi Mai was used as the theme tune for a drama about David Lloyd George...I think.
Best sci fi has got be original theme to Space 1999 by Barry Gray. If anyone does a dance remix of this they'd make a fortune (But I'd claim 10% for suggesting the idea!)

TVshow music theme, favs?
