[Markobfc]

No, no, no. Multi-coloured Swapshop followed by Grandstand.

Swapshop was for squares! Tiswas was for the kids and dads leching at Sally James...

 

[Markobfc]

always loved this of a Sunday Lunch time...

 

[ballysboots]

The Flashing Blade
Rockford Files
Alias Smith and Jones
High Chaparral
Robin of Sherwood
Miami Vice

Ha ha was on my way to post Miami Vice and The High Chaparral

I suppose better throw in something different.

Kojak. Great intro with super views of NYC helps to accentuate the song and the show.

 

[Archibald Knox]

Robinson Crusoe on Saturday mornings.

Kids even today should watch that. Even if it is B&W and atrociously dubbed from the original French production.

 

[Archibald Knox]

The Prisoner
(Number 6... not The Cell Block H ladies).

 

[Bottle]

Fireball XL5 and Stingray (Opening and Closing credits)

 

[Rotterdam+Sussex_Seasider]

Although The Sweeney main theme was obviously great, special mention must go to the closing theme. The Sweeney must have been one of the few that ever had regular case failures. When they did, the quieter / sad music came on with the closing credits.

 

[bfcpete]

I always thought thd theme to The World at War was perfect for the nature of the programme

 

[Rotterdam+Sussex_Seasider]

Roobarb and Custard

[TangerineSeasider]

No, no, no. Multi-coloured Swapshop followed by Grandstand.

Multi coloured swap shop was for girls.

 

[1966_and_all_that]

Multi coloured swap shop was for girls.

and boys of a more...ahem...intellectual upbringing.

 

[Ghosts of Electricity]

Had a quick skim but couldnt see it, apologies if mentioned already bit nothing beats sportsnight

 

[Boevets]

Someones already put UFO which is my fave Gerry Anderson theme tune - but how 60's is this one......

 

[Trammo]

The Rockford Files.Loved the harmonica playing on that upbeat bouncy theme. Very entertaining series as well James Garner was excellent as Rockford.

 

[TangerTonyGreen]

We have a winner.

 

[Mexboroseasider]

Come Green Donkeys Let us Ride Away!!!

 

[Mexboroseasider]

Lots of god stuff and happy memories there. (Even if I did mix up Space 1999 and UFO).

But The Persuaders and Randall and Hopkirk (deceased) pip the post for me.

 

[Lala]

[electric_eel]

There's a funked up Power Themes 90 CD of a lot of these including the Prisoner, UFO, Captain Scarlet and others - got a copy somewhere.

'Power Themes 90'

 

[CleveleysPete]

I've got the Joe 90 theme on a 45. The B side is a Sylvia Anderson ditty called "Parker, Well Done". Very funny.

My favourite lines
"I've lubricated all the cannon
And I've polished up the gun,"
Oh Parker, Well done
