Hi ALL,

A little quiz to test our musical knowledge and our TV Knowledge, We all watch TV but just how much notice do we take of the theme tunes to our favorite TV shows
well this little bit of daftness in the form of a quiz will test that knowledge. I have posted a 30 sec. intro to a TV Program in the link below, listen to it and see if you
can remember which program its from Simple ?? I will give a clue after every incorrect answer or everyday that its not guessed until someone gets the correct answer

Yes it counts as an incorrect answer, OK I will give some clues as it hard I think, the last one of these I did it was guessed straight away :(

Clue 1, The series first aired on BBC in 1991 and there was a further two series and a one off special

Thats it for now, Have a guess its FREE

I'll have a go. Was it the Theme music for the BBC Darts Competition? That has a similar sort of beat. Hugh

Hi ALL,

Another clue, OK

The lead actor had a couple of chart hits with his vocal recordings ?

Not many people fit that bill and it's not the singing detective either :lol: :lol:

Brian007 :D :D

We all know who the bricklayer was. He was the Irishman in this song. I have heard/read this story several times, but not as brilliantly done as in this clip.

Hi ll,

Well this one is I guess to hard so heres the answer, and please tell me if anyone else watched it or was it just me ?
The music was the opening credits to Spender , with Jimmy Nail which was the reference to a Bricklayer called OZ which he played in Auf Wiedersehen, Pet.




Better luck next time, Brian007

Hi Brian

Ahh right, do remember the name, but I never watched the series.

That was tough, but a good one!
