That the Crystal Maze theme should be on the list is a pretty short debate. A longer debate is whether Richard O'Brien was a better host than the under-rated Ed Tudor Pole. Will you START THE FANS PLEASE?!
www.youtube.com/watch?v=KLQS... I thought long & hard about including either The Muppet Show or Sesame Street, before remembering that Fraggle Rock's theme blows them both out of the water. Fun fact: the UK inserts were filmed just down the road from me.
All together now: dance your cares away...
I'd never considered that before - quite the dichotomy.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Gdv... Another sport - one which I've never enjoyed - but where the theme tune works perfectly. Soul Limbo by Booker T & the MGs was used by the Beeb as their cricket theme for ages. Might still be for all I know, but I won't be tuning in to find out.

www.instagram.com/reels/DAs9uy... Waking up at 3:30am tomorrow for the #AustralianGP, and for me #F1 will never have a theme song that just works as well as Fleetwood Mac's The Chain. I can almost hear Murray Walker! Sky have just switched to some awful racket from the F1 Movie, and it's terrible.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=6aqP... One that's very dear to my heart: there have been many Top of the Pops themes over the decades but for me The Wizard was THE #TOTP theme, many a Thursday evening wasted watching everything from ABC to ZZ Top mime badly. Now a Friday evening ritual!

www.youtube.com/watch?v=VyZi... This might be a bit of a cheat, as I'm not sure if this was ever used for the cartoon - as opposed to t he film - but Henry Mancini's Pink Panther theme stands on its own two feet as a fantastic track in its own right.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=lTjR... Long before Chris Evans borrowed it for TFI Friday, Ron Grainer's amazing body of work included the theme to thriller Man In a Suitcase, as well as masterpieces for Dr Who and The Prisoner.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=TkgF... Grandstand had a fantastic tune which works perfectly as a sports theme, with the added bonus that the VT editors often timed the big bass drum with some accident or other: an athlete falling, a rally car crashing, or in this case a camera getting knocked over.

youtu.be/AO3lkmll3Ss I never got into The Professionals (nor the Sweeney or all the other myriad cop shows of the time) but the theme tune is just wonderful.

Whooaa! I've seen Omid Djalili's standup live, and been at several TV show recordings with him. Always thought he was a decent chap. His self-serving attempt at justifying playing the bonesaw festival was bad enough, but this conspiracy nonsense is something else.

So America's a massive great mess
But the thing I must now confess
Is I saw JD Vance
Pull down his big pants
And get banned from Chepstow DFS
Tell me about it.
Thirty-odd years since I left, and never once have I had to solve a quadratic equation.
