What's your all-time favourite TV theme tune?

[fishdishwish]

Inspired by the passing of James Garner, as The Rockford Files had a pretty cool theme tune composed by Mike Post (who also wrote the Hill Street Blues and A-Team themes, amongst others).

For me, it has be a tie between The Littlest Hobo & (despite it's rather dodgy lyrics) The Fall Guy. Oh, and the lovely sweeping orchestral piece that Granada used to play at closedown (remember those?!) in the 1980s.

Flambards, Black Beauty, inspector Morse, The Thorn Birds

Agree ai

Agree with Danish version of "The Bridge" - Hollow Talk, I think it's called.

Jonathan Creek is danse macabre by Saint SAens.

best theme tune ever is definitely Minder though. Or maybe Grandstand.

Postman Pat

Writer of the best feem toon though must be WH Snuffy Walden who wrote the West Wing music.

Massively good call for the Pink Panther

I didn't watch it often as a kid but to me and I rather love it now

I sometimes play to myself on a Sunday night as part of getting psyched up for Monday morning

Love all the above classic telly tunes, but a recent corker was The Wire, which had different artists doing the same song on easy season. 'Gotta keep the devil, way down in the hole.'
