The Royle Family Theme | Piano Bash
Переглядів 7 тис.4 роки тому
The cage might be open, but the beast is asleep... it's The Royle Family! The Mancunian sitcom originally aired for three series on the BBC between 1998-2000, returning for some special episodes between 2006-2012. The theme is an edited excerpt from the classic Oasis b-side "Half The World Away".
The Demon Headmaster Theme (1996-98) | Piano Bash
Переглядів 8 тис.4 роки тому
You must be feeling tired and sleepy. Very, very sleepy... it's the Demon Headmaster! Based on the children's books by Gillian Cross, the original 3 series of The Demon Headmaster were broadcast between 1996 and 1998. It has recently returned to CBBC as a reboot, which continues the storyline. The show's music was composed by Richard Attree, who also worked on Horizon and Wildlife At One.
BBC Election 2019 ("Arthur" Theme) | Piano Bash
Переглядів 17 тис.4 роки тому
It's back for 2019! Rick Wakeman's classic "Arthur" opened BBC Election coverage from 1979 to 2005, and after a gap of 3 general elections, it returns this year. The BBC commissioned Rick to rearrange and re-record the track for each election - and according to rumour, the only reason it disappeared in 2010 was because he was fed up of reworking it. My cover is based on the version used in 1992.

Five Children And It (CBBC Series, 1991) | Piano Bash
Переглядів 3 тис.4 роки тому
Anyone remember this? Long before the 2004 movie, E Nesbit's classic childrens' book was adapted for television by the BBC, who ran it as a 6-part series in 1991. It was followed by 1993's The Return Of The Psammead, featuring a completely new cast, with only the eponymous sandfairy returning from series 1. Both series used the same theme music, but the outro music was a completely different tu...
Wizadora Theme Tune | Piano Bash
Переглядів 11 тис.4 роки тому
Time for a bit of Wizzification - it's Wizadora! Originally designed as an English-language learning tool for non-English speakers, Wizadora's first series went out in Germany in 1991, and was virtually unknown in the UK. However, two years later, ITV picked up the programme and adapted it for a British audience. It ran for 5 further series until 1997. The theme song was composed by Dave Hutton...
The Clothes Show Theme (1987-95) | Piano Bash
Переглядів 6 тис.4 роки тому
Not sure I'm doing this quite right but anyway: it's the Clothes Show! The BBC's flagship fashion programme ran from 1986 to 2000, and at its peak in the early 90s, it went out to 9m viewers every Sunday night. The famous theme, used from the second series onwards, is an excerpt from the Pet Shop Boys' song "In The Night". In 1995 the BBC commissioned the band to make a remix, marking a revamp ...
Yes (Prime) Minister Theme (1980-88) | Piano Bash
Переглядів 8 тис.4 роки тому
As requested by Sprout Wheel Switch Music back in March, it's Yes (Prime) Minister! The beautifully-written political satire ran for 3 series between 1980-1982 under the title Yes Minister, before returning for two more series in 1986-1988 as Yes Prime Minister, following the successful (fictional) election of the main character. The theme tune was written by Ronnie Hazlehurst, who also wrote t...

Blockbusters Theme Tune | Piano Bash
Переглядів 11 тис.4 роки тому
I'll have a theme tune please Bob... it's Blockbusters! Based on an original US show of the same name, the UK version of Blockbusters arrived on ITV in 1983. It ran for 10 series until 1993, outlasting its American cousin by several years, probably because its theme tune is SO MUCH BETTER, and the show has since returned on several occasions, including its most recent reincarnation on Comedy Ce...
Penny Crayon Theme Tune (1989-90) | Piano Bash
Переглядів 7 тис.4 роки тому
As requested by Jacob Duhig and Kel McGowan - several times :) - she's finally here... it's Penny Crayon! Made by the same team as Jimbo And The Jet-Set and The Family-Ness, Penny Crayon ran for twelve episodes between 1989-1990. The theme was written and performed by Roger and Gavin Greenaway, the father-and-son team who had already produced the Jimbo and Family-Ness themes.
Panorama Theme Tune | Piano Bash

We're doing some serious investigative journalism this week - it's Panorama! First broadcast in 1953, Panorama is the world's longest-running news television programme. It had a couple of different theme tunes in its early years, before settling on an adaptation of Francis Lai's "Aujourd'hui C'est Toi" from 1971 onwards. My cover is based on the original orchestral arrangement; in more recent y...

Desert Island Discs Theme ("Sleepy Lagoon") | Piano Bash
Bravo 👍
Good but doesn't quite match the proper GH theme. The key is too low for the first bit and also some of the notes are missed out
I know the song "Dedication's What You Need" by heart.
Fun Fact: the tune is actually called "Size Ten Shuffle".
Anywhere I can find the sheet music for this?
Which Nina Simone track is this from?
Love it, especially the snooker theme. Wish the BBC still had that
And we'll hear this again next week

Very nice! The 'like' button isn't working, at present. Have noticed it on the last several videos I've watched.
Are you cold? Hat? Scarf?
...is that the Tim traveller?
Lovely, sweet little theme - Goodall borrowing from Dave Grusin and Mike Post.
This is really top notch stuff
I remember watching chucklevision when I first started watching it back in 2002
What’s your favourite episode of The Simpsons?
Like you your song
Omg tim traveller
Where do i get the piano notes.
They really knew how to write a theme tune in the 80s.
Magnificent job mate
Ace!xxxxxxxx
Ernie Dunstall's amazing melody Tim. I was with him last month. He's 90 (something) and more than still with us. You should meet him...!
I never thought I’d see this! Check it out!
"And Bully's SPECIAL Priiiiiiiize..."
This theme definitely suited Grange Hill better than Chicken Man!!
Where can I get the sheet music?
A teddy bear who saves the day with help from a spotty man.
