There are no great TV themes anymore

Sunderland AFC run out music…

Remember when Tony Christie performed that at Charlton?

Yes I think I do. One of those surreal moments in life.

 

[Capybara]

Why was it played midweek?

Yes I think I do. One of those surreal moments in life.

I was there that day. It was very surreal. Was that the day we went on the boat down the river? Always enjoyed Charlton.

 

[Lemmy_kilmister]

Another great theme with an iconic title sequence.

This might prove an interesting documentary

That list has just given me another cracking theme

Loved that theme tune

For me the best theme tunes over the last 50 years or so have been:

The Professionals
The New Avengers
Return of the Saint
Dempsey & Makepeace
Minder

Honourable mentions for:
The Streets of San Francisco
Vega$
And this often forgotten gem (similar to the likely lads in it's ambience!)
The Paper lads


Modern day stuff....quite liked Life on Mars/Ashes to Ashes, so I wonder what the new one "Lazarus" will be like?
