...and the crushing disappointment
when you realised it was Tales of The Water Margin and not Monkey that was on.

I never fell into that trap
because I could read and would consult the TV listings in a bid to avoid being terribly upset that Monkey wasn't on.

But you would have got to watch Crackerjack
And there was still one of

The Sweeney
The Gentle Touch
CATS Eyes

or Dempsey and Makepeace to look forward to.

Man I love The Sweeney,
A mate of mine got hold of the incidental music on vinyl, the record is called 'Gotcha!' and is sho'nuff fonky.

The closing theme to The Sweeney is one of the most depressing bits of music ever.

That mournful oboe.
More distressing than than the closing theme to The Incredible Hulk, even.

You can add the closing theme to
Prisoner Cell Block H to the list as well.

It was fucking brilliant.
As were The Persuaders and The Saint.

Nothing is more distressing than 'The Lonely Man' (as the closing theme to the Hulk was called).
Apart from James Blunt shoehorning it into the introductory bars of his seminal pop hit 'You're Beautiful'.

One of my father's finest hours
was when he denounced Stu Francis to be 'a simpering berk'.

Oooh. I could rip a tissue.
You're right though. The bloke was (and probably remains) a cock.
