But aren't!
Is it just me that always imagines it is?

Sharon in The Snapper is the only one I can think of right now.

One foot in the grave- I used to think it was the neighbour.

How? It's Eric Idle - very distinctive voice!

@LyndaLaHughes I always thought it was Paul Robinson singing neighbours! 😀

The "Only Fools & Horses" theme always sounded to me as though Rodney was singing.

But it is Rodney isn't it!?!

@MargotMoon It's the writer, John Sullivan, singing.

I always imagined it was Brenda singing the theme tune to Watching.

And Adrian singing the theme tune to Bread.

And Jacks singing Brushstrokes, even though I knew it was Dexy’s.

I love all these theme tunes!!

Gilmore girls theme tune sounds like Lorelei and Rory singing.

YouLando · 30/07/2022 00:11

It was indeed Brenda (Emma Wray) singing the 'Watching' theme song.

@MargotMoon It's the writer, John Sullivan, singing.

Oh I kind of wish I hadn’t asked now! In my head it’ll still be Rodney…

It does sound as if Sara Cox is singing doesn't it and Rodney on only fools.

"Oh I kind of wish I hadn’t asked now! In my head it’ll still be Rodney…"

I've known for a while that it was John Sullivan singing, but every time I hear it I still think "Rodney"

I'm sure Linda Robson was singing on birds of a feather badly !

I've been watching Private Eyes on Sky and I always think it is Angie who is singing the theme tune to Jason Priestley's character 😂
