And I fully agree with Alan Partridge on the merits of this one...

My best mate at A Level collage was called Bod, and we teased him rotten.

And this I still miss, kids tv these days seem to miss out on the classics...

Not sure if this link is gonna work or not, but does anyone else remember this bonkers programme, Neat and Tidy?

And the Big Bang Theory must be one of the best current themes I reckon.

Spaced actually used both the ATeam and Grange Hill tunes at various points.

Even though I don’t like cricket, this was a memorable tune from my yoof.

All my other memories are already here, with perhaps only the second one below missing.

I don’t even need to post a link to Ski Sunday. Just reading that last sentence will give you the ear worm

I was going to post the Hong Kong Phooey theme tune but someone (with great taste) has already posted that so

From the same show for the fans of old skool rap

Tune was decent, but the very opening sequence was superb.

I'm guessing you also have a small child. Lost count how many times I've heard that one.

If we are allowed to come away from our “yoof”, then this is more than a classic..it’s become iconic.

And this become an important part of my life, just like that above.. crafted in the days when quality mattered and the TV schedules were starting to explore the darker side of life..

Sopranos is a great call, but Due South? I liked the program, watched it regularly but having just listened to that then tune I couldn’t have told you what it was from, totally unmemorable, whereas I don’t recall ever watching Cagney and Lacey yet 2 notes in I knew exactly what it was. Weird uh?

Great post - like scrolling through my childhood. Just when I think ‘oh yeah that one’ another magic one appears. Well done all.

LOL - I don't remember the programme at all, just the theme - heard it for the first time in ages a few years ago, and it took me back to being 3 again and one of my earliest memories!

Yes Soul Limbo (Test Match) is arguably the greatest theme music ever, but does it really count? Ditto for Kraftwerk's Tour de France.
