It's not a comedy theme tune, but I always like to hear the HBO logo before a program, as I know I'm in for some good telly.

Hahaa totally agree!!

Recently I've been watching The League Of Gentlemen, and I found its theme tune very catching and fit for the show, so if I may have my own say, my vote goes to it.

CBA to look back but has anyone mentioned Hancock ?

The tuba suits his personality perfectly to me.

I also love the Tony Hancock (Toe-knee Hand-cock) theme tune and the incidental use of music during the show between scenes. Something that doesn't seem to happen anymore in modern radio shows.

Always quite liked the Black Books tune. Brilliantly dark and wonky

What a great description of that tune. It is a bit wonky!

I love the Garth Marenghi's Darkplace theme tune. So brilliantly bad.

Think mine has to be Father Ted though. Brings a big grin to my face everytime I hear it. I suppose my fav theme tunes are from all my fav shows because I hear them and think- "yay! it's..." and all is well with the world again.

Special mentions go to The IT Crowd and Not Going Out, both of which I have my own special dance for when they come on!

I've probably posted this already, but the theme from Up Pompeii! The Movie is brilliant. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jLc8oE22ABw

I am getting a live version of it as we speak.
Never mind that I'm trying to watch the telly... Unimpressed

:D

Oh it has to be the Men of the World theme tune

Only Series 1, mind. What the hell were they smoking during S2?!

Agreed. :)

Best theme tune by a mile has to be Brush Strokes. Kevin Rowland singing Because of You. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZdJ5Q7dtJuY

It's a shame the actual show was such a pile of horse manure.

Really, has no one said the Red Dwarf theme?
Gotta have a sing-a-long to that.

I've just come across this - the complete Dad's Army theme tune. It is an extra on one of the DVDs.
