Inspired by this thread, what TV theme tune(s) make you cringe, weep, scream, leap off tall buildings etc?

I'll start with Heartbeat.
And raise a My Family.
And just for good measure, throw a Neighbours into the pot, doubled with a Home and Away for added nausea.

I'll raise the stakes with a Grandstand and a Match Of The Day.

Big Brother. Thankfully (now that the advertisers have realised it's dead) it's the only place you're forced to hear tarnce nowadays.

That's dire.

But I must be the only geek in the world who actually likes the BB theme tune.

And you know what? I don't care!

Is it the same music globally? Or does it differ country to country? Just curious. Does everybody have that Paul Oaky thing?

It is fairly bad, isn't it?

Possibly...

Anyway, definitely not my cup of tea, bit too 'nu tarnce' for my liking... Far from Oakie's finest hour. But I've heard worse - Cash In The Attic and You've Been Framed spring to mind for some reason...
