Welcome back Jugula!

Adam Adamant! Ooh that takes me back. I remember him from when I was a kid. He used to have a sword stick. (I think )

Danke, nice to be back! He vas a Victorian gentleman, frozen in ice for 100 years and unthawed vhen a new block of flats vas built. A sword stick, und a cloak und 2 side kicks vone of whom vas a smashing bird, so my friends vould say! Gerald Harper played him.

I remember it was Gerald Harper, but I don't remember the "smashing bird".

I will youtube it this instant.

I will youtube it this instant.

You weren't old enough to be into birds back then - smashing or otherwise

 

[poohcarrot]

True Jan. But as birds go, she's certainly smashing!

 

[Tonyblack]

I remember Adam Adamant as well. HERE'S the theme music.

 

[poohcarrot]

I just watched that.
I love the final lyric when she sings,

"If you want love
And your years filled with laughter
And content ever after
Leave this man alone."

(But if you want a quick shag, well that's OK!)

PS Tony, I bet after watching that you went straight for the U.N.C.L.E. theme. I did!

 

[Tonyblack]

Nah - I went to The Protectors. I don't remember the baldy bloke at 0:27 in the video though.

Then I went to Randall and Hopkirk. Whatever happened to Mike Pratt?

 

[poohcarrot]

I voted for Randall and Hopkirk as one of my fave detectives in Pinflod's thread.

I used to love the Champions - damn good theme music!

The baldy bloke was just in that one episode, same with the scientist woman.

 

[Jugula]

I will add Dinotopia, which has just surfaced over here on German TV. And does anyone remember 'Shadow of the Noose', with Jonathan Hyde as Sir Edward Marshall Hall?

 

[BatrickPatrick]

I like the Reeves and Mortimer version of Randall and Hopkirk...

 

[Bouncy Castle]

I've just been persuaded by a rabid fan of Battlestar Galactica (the new one) to watch them, so I've just ordered the 3 episode prequel discs.




Oh and for fans (UK based) of the Gilmore Girls, it's starting up from S1 on 5* (I think) very soon.

Re:

Thanks for that!
Loved the Irish wolfhound in the clip,on thursdays like today,i've got this litlle fellow with me...

Eagan can always count on turning some heads.
But turning to TV-themes,probably my favourite is this :

Somehow although it shouldn't work/fit it just does...

Music iMO is usually very underrated as part of the succes/failure of a film/series etc..
As an example my eye was caught while surfing channels by 'The Edge of Darkness' and when i excitedly turned the TV to that channel,i was quite disappointed to find it to be the Mel Gibson/Hollywood-version.
Not only because the BBC-series couldn't be much improved anyway,but more still because i was expecting/hoping for bits of this haunting piece of beautiful musicscore :

Ah well,such is life,now i've got it on a youtube list anyway,thanks again!

Ps Joan Whalley. :romance-admire: could have been the reason,that as an atheist(/agnost at best) i still sometimes pray to(commune with? )Gaia...
Who am i kidding,she is!
