For me it is Ski Sunday.

I don’t ski, yet I loved this show and this tune.

Anyone else fancy a musical trio down memory lane?

Howard's Way!!!! Yes!!!

feb21 · 13/02/2022 17:46

I was also going to say Howard's Way. A classic. And Dallas

BuddhaForMary · 13/02/2022 17:47

Dallas and Dynasty, oh yes I'd forgotten them! My mum loved those too. I used to stay up and watch them with her.

DahliaMacNamara · 13/02/2022 17:48

Camberwick Green and Trumpton. Chigley, not so much.
A very young child, naturally.

NellyTimes · 13/02/2022 17:50

Came on to sat Howard's Way, absolutely loved that music!
Also the Tripods, Going Live, Saint and Greavsie and the Clothes Show.

Dobbyatemysocks · 13/02/2022 17:59

Rockcliffe's babies - the theme tune was so gritty.
Airwolf
The A-team
Knight rider
Fame!

Wasn't there an agreement that the A-team, airwolf etc could only show explosions but not people being killed?

And who can forget The Young One's - that program alone managed to put the whole school in detention for their Chad's 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

90s Grangehill theme tune, Dawson's creek and Party of Five but last two were teenage years.

Arthur Hailey’s Hotel
That’s Life!
Agony
M.A.S.H
The Littlest Hobo

@Dobbyatemysocks I LOVE the theme to Rockcliffe's Babies, nobody else ever seems to remember it, but it was so good.

Crossroads. In the 70s, if there was a sad ending, they played the Paul McCartney version at the end

Dobbyatemysocks · 13/02/2022 19:47

@NellyTimes it's on YouTube - I also have it on DVD and every so often it gets a showing on watch, alibi. They only made 2 series but it seemed to start so many actors
