My miserable score will remain private! If you still get a point for shouting at the screen "Oh, that's errr, oh it's, can't think of it's name" then I got them all🤣🤣as it is I shall have to reflect on my poor performance and do better next time. That was great, a real trip down memory lane there so thank you very much👏👏👍
@@stuviewtv I kicked myself by getting my sweeny mixed up with my professionals🤣 but pleased I remembered mind your language straight away and although I've yet to get a 'full house' your quizzes are so entertaining that I don't get too upset about the score, it's great fun✌️🍻
I still think that the theme to Black Beauty stands up as a genuine piece of classical music. Absolutely beautiful. I'd add also add the Lightening Tree theme from Follyfoot. This can be confirmed because I also know, just how much fudge is required to give a kid a treat and the preferred destination for anybody having a bath in a private jet with a bar of Coussins Imperial Leather soap. Fantastic vid as always Stu, even though I was thwarted by 'The High Road' and at least three others where shouting "Robin's Nest" proved fruitless.
Yes!! The Black Beauty theme tune was a classic, along with Follyfoot...🐴🐴 l nearly put “Robin’s Nest” instead of “Sorry” and I always mix up the theme tunes of Yes Minister” and “ To the Manor Born.” Happy Memories 📺
Love it so much I made it my phone ring tone. Whenever an annoying tune gets stuck in my head, I only have to play Galloping Home to drive it out again.
Black Beauty was a truly 10:38 superb theme tune.With Dennis Watered Down man nowhere to be seen.The Sweeney...I can't say enough bad things about it.Completely overrated.The show that preceded it Special Branch was far superior.
23 not bad.. I, m now 57 1970 i was only 3 still very young for rest of em but remembered most we had better programmes then than we do now and we never had repeats either bring back the good old days thats what I say
That was good😊 enjoyed that quiz...some of those programms were on late it brought back memories of me thinking oh its bed time = school in the morning...oh no😮. Loved black beauty❤. Got about 6 wrong..yes including manor born..Not!. Thankyou,👍
Lots of memories there thank you :) hammer house of horror .. Used to watch those late at night after parents went to bed. Stand out episode was " The house that bled to death" with blood coming out of the pipes .. Still remember it now
Glad you enjoyed the memories! The House That Bled to Death seems to be the one that most people remember. Not surprising considering that scene with the blood in the pipes!
A walk in the park for me, this one. Got every single one right. But then, it is a bit of a hobby of mine collecting theme tunes, so I wasn't likely to miss any of these.
It was all going so well until 19 and 20. Also missed 25, so 22/25 declared. 17 one of the best themes ever. Fond memories of 4pm Saturday afternoons watching the wrestling. Happier, simpler times. Good quiz.👍
Ouch! 8 wrong! And yeah you got me good on the Yes Minister thought it was To The Manor Born! Lulled into a false sense of security by the first ten and then there was much groaning!🤣
Really well put together ! Totally honest 17 for me, mostly due to age! Would love to go through more torture like this, especially as a first-time viewer and brand-new subscriber! Keep em comin’! JCHK
I achieved a score of around 9. I was amazed that Mind your language pulled in around 18 million viewers. We only had around 3 or 4 channels which was generally light hearted entertainment, unlike the dross we have nowadays with over a hundred channels. Good work Stu. 👍🎵🎼
The scariest 'Hammer House Of Horror' was one with a man driving down a country road at night in the rain. A shadowy figure in a yellow Souwester appears as if from out of nowhere. The driver stops to pick him up and later gets stabbed in the throat if I remember rightly by a withered hand but with a very long sharp nail attached to it.
Good video, and a nice trip down memory lane. I do feel, though, that the tunes should continue through the countdowns, and actually even through the reveal...
How cool was that video 👍…got a pretty solid 22 out of 25….As for Hammer there were two episodes for me that stood out, one with Peter Cushing and Brian Cox and the other one with Diana Dors!
Amazing video thanks so much for uploading! Got a lot of these but not all. I recognised the themes, but couldn’t match them to the show. I loved Minder me, my dad and me used to watch it when i was 10/11 years old. It was rubbish after Dennis Waterman left though. Thanks again pal, all the best
You only remember the good, your mind blocks out the bad. No-one even back then considered Crossroads to be good. Or Take the high road. Or Albion Market (remember that abortion?) There's some good stuff on modern TV/streaming. Fringe was a masterpiece, fir example.
Great stuff, love these, and happy to say I did actually get a couple wrong, but only because I thought they were something else! I got Hammer House of Horror straight away though - I was very lucky to meet Peter Cushing, when he took a Sunday off filming his episode, "The Silent Scream". Not the series scariest (that was probably The House That Bled To Death) but definitely a chiller. He was staying at a hotel run by my best friend's parents, and my mates mum came up and said "Peter is in the lounge if you want to go and say hello". 1980. Three years after he played Moff Tarkin in Star Wars. I was 13!! Are you kidding? My mate and I spent two very chatty hours talking to this sweet, gentle, charming and friendly gentleman. He even bought us a coke each!! A memory I cherish every day.
Oh wow, that is fantastic. What a fabulous memory to cherish. Peter Cushing was one of my acting heroes, as was Christopher Lee. Wonderful that you got to chat with him for so long and it's nice to hear how nice he was. I never got to meet Peter but I did get to meet Christopher Lee about twenty years ago. That was a bucket list moment for me and he was a true gent too,
@delbydoo, Hi there! I love watching the Hammer Horror films and my favourite actor from those movies was the late, great Peter Cushing and I had a crush on Christopher Lee when he was young in the Hammer Horror movies. What you wrote about Peter, that was great and very sweet of him, he brought you and your friend a coke and chatted to you both. It shows that he was a gentleman, kindhearted and a lovely man 🥰.
I got some of the tv themes right like Crossroads (heard it was famous for its wobbly sets) lol 😂, Blockbusters. No-one was a better host than the late, Bob Holness. (RIP Bob!), Black Beauty, Hi-De-Hi, The Sweeney, Minder, The Professionals, forgot about, Tales of the Unexpected (loved that song and series), Parkinson (RIP Parky) but I don’t remember the other tv themes as I was born in 1980 but a few of the programmes like, The Professionals, The Sweeney and Minder are still repeated on tv.
I got 4. But to be fair, I live in Australia. Most of our TV shows came from UK then, but we didn't get all of those. I also would have got one more if I hadn't thought "Yes Minister" was "To the Manor Born" :-)
I love these quizzes! I got 23 Growing up in the 70s and 80s all my attention was funneled into those three channels and then four, with a concentration on comedy The ones I got wrong was the second one that was too scary to watch as a child and the one you said could be confused for another tune which I did. I hope that's abiguous and far enough down the comment to avoid spoilers! Keep it up! 😊
Dunno whether I'm a bit ashamed to say I got 24 out of 25. ("Hammer house of horror" being the one I missed). I always felt I was outside playing in the street & park as a kid... but seeing my score on this quiz makes me feel I spent more time in the house than I remember !!! One I thought you might have included was "Just good friends" another Ronnie Hazelhurst ditty... I absolutely love the the final credit trumpet solo version more than I should for some reason... I think I must've subliminally heard it during a particularly happy event in my youth. Other potentials... "The Adventures of Robinson Crusoe" and "the flashing blade" Great work as ever Stu. Thank you once again. P.S "Superstars" always makes me think of Brian Jacks, Geoff Capes AND Ron Pickering.
Network released The Adventures Of Robinson Crusoe on DVD a few years ago, my wife had never seen it, so began her crush on Robert Hoffmann. The soundtrack CD is brilliant (Robert Mellin & Gian-Piero Reverberi) which I still play regularly.
@@KarlMB64 Its weird when you see someone from 60+ years ago and find them VERY attractive.... It's like feeling attracted to a ghost from the past, that no longer exists. It happens quite often when I watch old films / TV. Current ideas of "beauty" don't really work for me. I might search out that OST CD as if the main theme is anything to go by, then it should have plenty of beautiful tracks. All the best.
Whhooaaa!! Hammer House of Horror!! I thought I was free of that nightmare!! All I remember is witches and blood in a bowl of custard! I was menatlly scarred by this programme!!!

Yes Minister did catch me out. Such a smart TV show. I wonder what Sir Humphrey Appleby would make of this lot. The Z Cars theme was called Night Patrol I think.
20 correct god takes you right back ❤ I was only watching Hammer House of Horror the other week 😆 the theme that scared me was Armchair Thriller think it was more the shadow when it sits and grips the arms 😳🙈🙈🙈🤪
Got them all, but the Yes Minister theme was confused with To the Manor Born. Regarding the hammer House of Horror, the theme was just brilliant and with it, you did not feel anything sinister until the face at the window of the house/castle!
Angels, Take The High Road, Superstarts and World of Sport are the only ones I missed.

Dick Turpin was my favourite ever thing when I was 9. I had the BBC endorsed book, by Richard Caprenter and read it dozens of times. I probably still have it - it was bought from one of those mail order things they did in primary schools. Never saw the later series(es) after the first two: amazing how you can shift so much at that age, I think after that I (and my mates) were obsessed with Bodie and Doyle, so pretended to be them instead. Swiftnick (Michael Deeks?) was in a Hammer Horror episode with the great (and greatly underrated) Angela Bruce, IIRC it was called "Charlie Boy". Re-watching Hammer House of Horror, you can see how nearly everything was filmed in one location - something I didn;t notice as a child, and with a lo-res TV standard, compounded by sometimes watching them on a black and white portable, which I would occasionally be allowed in my bedroom. Between this techonolgy and also age, some programmes stand up better than others, but I still really enjoy them all!
I love your quizzes, this one was frustrating… I sat there saying “oh, god, what was that… oh, of course!” Brilliant. You asked about Hammer House of Horror, I remember one episode that featured a dinner reunion for a group of air crash survivors and I think a reporter gate crashed to get a story. Turned out the survivors only survived because they resorted to cannibalism and the journalist ended up staying for dinner, I believe he was delicious.
Hammer House of Horror. Most frightening. Maybe The Two Faces of Evil, the hitchhiker episode. Then the Peter Cushing one where he kept Brian Cox trapped with a tiger.
I started off really well and then after halfway through I couldn’t remember any of them. 😆 However, the second one I know by heart, I’m a Sweeney girl through and through; and the theme is my ringtone!
just done the quiz with my mum (i was born in 74, she was born in 52) didnt go too well lol. knew most of the themes, just couldnt connect them, i still have the Minder theme tune on vinyl single, i'm guessing my Dad must have bought it, fancied himself as a bit of a Terry Mccann in those days, Capri included. went a bit Arthur Daley later on, Jag included.
A poor 12. I recognised a lot more but couldn't put a name to them. Used to watch Hammer house of horror with my grandad - that certainly made me the horror fan that I am today - The house that bled to death is the one that is the most memorable and I've seen that one a fire few times since then. Great video.
Same, as said to another commenter who said he recognised all😀 I said of course we all heard them all.. I got 11 wrong,.was.confident I'd do better 😂😂😂
I would like to see a “Goodies” series about the U.K. as the country is at present. I’m sure it would be hilarious. There is so much material they could use.
Oh my god,theme 3 and 4 2 of my favourites Black Beauty and Blockbusters loved them both,haha remember getting told off by my mum for saying "can I have a p Bob" haha love it ❤❤😂😂😂😅😊
I only got 2: Tales Of The Unexpected & Dave Allen At Large. Saw both shows on American TV. Also, they lifted the original U.S. Monday Night Football theme for Superstars. 🤨
Truly enjoyed that Stu... All of them right, but one! As 'yes minister ' I truly did get mixed up with ' to the manor born' ha ha 😂..what a good prediction you had , that some of us might get it wrong 😂
I scored badly on this one but to comment on the hammer house of horror (one theme that I got straight away) I was 10 when they aired and the top three that disturbed me for life in this order was... the house that bled to death, the doppelganger one and Charlie boy, closely followed by the werewolf kids one. That short series was brilliant.
23/25🤩🎊 A great score from me.... but then I am from an age when my childhood was spent watching only three channels on television 📺 I was doing brilliantly until “Angels.” I recognised the tune, but forgot the programme!! The only series I had never heard of was “Hammer House of Horror.”🧛🏼♂️ Great Quiz🤔 With so many wonderful television 📺 theme tunes 🎶 You could do another Quiz🧐
Only two, Black Beauty solely because I have watched Alan Partridge several times (it’s played at the end of the last episode of series 1 and Lynn shares this fact), it’s also the theme tune used for a Finnish comedy series in the late 90s. And Generation Game I knew only because I’ve binged that on TH-cam.
11 not heard that since the mid nineties and 20 mins ago one hit wonders on bbc four was on and number 12 FTW - was actually no 1 on the day i was born (september)
I still remember how the entire country stayed in to watch the final episode of Z-Cars. Didn't it end with the cast standing behind the police station shutters as they went down for the final time?
11 over 14. Due to my dislike of costume dramas and soaps! Someone commented on the Sweeney being good. Most junior ranking coppers thought it was THE BEST, and packed squadrooms all over london to see it. Then John Thaw started doing highbrow CRAP like Morse & Stanley & The Women! - Ah! well, can't win 'em all! Excellent channel Stu - keep it up!!!! OH¬ & the BBC even did a documentary in the 80S about how much those junior coppers enjoyed it - not the DCSs and such those (too much truth, Met Police???)
As a 15yo in 1980, I was allowed to watch Hammer House of Horror on a Saturday night. I don't remember being particularly scared by any episode though. Still watch the DVD box set occasionally.
I was 11 and I remember watching it, the one that always sticks in my mind I think was called the House that dripped blood or something the blood pouring out of the pipes onto the kids birthday party will stay with me forever haha.
I got 18 , didn't get : Van der Valk Z cars World of sport Take the high road Angels Superststars Dick Turpin Great work again Stu, enjoyed that ! Cheers
The Hammer house of horror episode that terrified me as a child was 'The two faces of Evil', with the hitchhiker... but my favourite will always be 'Charlie Boy' with the evil Nkisi Doll.
My miserable score will remain private! If you still get a point for shouting at the screen "Oh, that's errr, oh it's, can't think of it's name" then I got them all🤣🤣as it is I shall have to reflect on my poor performance and do better next time. That was great, a real trip down memory lane there so thank you very much👏👏👍

Sounds like a full house then Martin!😀

Almost the same as you.
I said Follyfoot for Black Beauty.
I still think that the theme to Black Beauty stands up as a genuine piece of classical music. Absolutely beautiful.
I'd add also add the Lightening Tree theme from Follyfoot.
This can be confirmed because I also know, just how much fudge is required to give a kid a treat and the preferred destination for anybody having a bath in a private jet with a bar of Coussins Imperial Leather soap.
Fantastic vid as always Stu, even though I was thwarted by 'The High Road' and at least three others where shouting "Robin's Nest" proved fruitless.
I often find shouting the same answer repeatedly eventually pays dividends...sadly, not this time though it seems!
Yes!! The Black Beauty theme tune was a classic, along with Follyfoot...🐴🐴 l nearly put “Robin’s Nest” instead of “Sorry” and I always mix up the theme tunes of Yes Minister” and “ To the Manor Born.” Happy Memories 📺
But was this fudge full of peppery goodness?
@@Matelot123 Not only was it full of Cadbury goodness, but it was very small and neat. :)
Now, "Do you want the fish"?
The theme to the Czech dubbed in English programme 'White Horses' was also very pleasant.
“Get your trousers on, you’re nicked!” Another great selection and great commentary, Stu. Thanks.
We're the Sweeney son, and we haven't had any dinner.
Oh, thank you for this! Some of those themes took me back! The Black Beauty theme, however brief, actually brought tears to my eyes.
My pleasure! That Black Beauty theme often gets me too, such a beautiful and stirring tune.
Love it so much I made it my phone ring tone. Whenever an annoying tune gets stuck in my head, I only have to play Galloping Home to drive it out again.
@@socratesrocks1513 I agree with you. It's one of the most beautiful and evocative tunes ever to be played.
Black Beauty was a truly 10:38 superb theme tune.With Dennis Watered Down man nowhere to be seen.The Sweeney...I can't say enough bad things about it.Completely overrated.The show that preceded it Special Branch was far superior.
Ooooh we had some good telly, better than some of today's rubbish 😂😂😊
23 not bad.. I, m now 57 1970 i was only 3 still very young for rest of em but remembered most we had better programmes then than we do now and we never had repeats either bring back the good old days thats what I say
That was good😊 enjoyed that quiz...some of those programms were on late it brought back memories of me thinking oh its bed time = school in the morning...oh no😮. Loved black beauty❤. Got about 6 wrong..yes including manor born..Not!. Thankyou,👍
Brilliant ! So glad we found this channel 😊
That's great to hear - thanks!
Great Quiz! I didn't get everything right..... , BUT it was good to hear Old UK TV Themes. Some Wonderful Themes existed many years ago.....
Some great memories for me. The Dick Emery Show was a family favourite! Oh you are awful…. So many great characters that would never be revived today.
Brilliant way to spend a friday night, i really enjoyed this :D
Fantastic, thank you!
Thank you so much for taking me back to the best years
My pleasure!
Great quiz and yes I thought number 22 was To The Manor Born!
Ha, that was one of the few I got right.
Damn you, Ronnie Hazelhurst. Thought Yes Minister was To The Manor Born...
You're not alone there Dan!
@@stuviewtvyeah the beginnings are so similar, another 10 secs and the difference is far easier to spot though 👍
Another great quiz stu. These really bring back some great memories. Thanks
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks!
Didn't do badly. It was a fun trip down memory lane. Thanks👍
Glad you enjoyed it Sharon. Thanks!
Absolutely great. So many memories. A tear came to my eye at number 3. I got 22. Clearly watched too much telly. Thanks, Stu. 😊
You're very welcome!
Well I came a cropper on 'Take the high road',which i suspect many will!
And, I'm ashamed to say 'Hi De Hi' also.
Your graphics are brilliant Stu! 👍🙂
Thanks!
I got that one, then talked myself out of it.
Absolutely loved this nostalgia, I knew most of them, what's more we used to watch most of them, which is shocking to think about
Glad you enjoyed the memories!
wow happy memories! Thank you!
Lots of memories there thank you :) hammer house of horror .. Used to watch those late at night after parents went to bed. Stand out episode was " The house that bled to death" with blood coming out of the pipes .. Still remember it now
Glad you enjoyed the memories! The House That Bled to Death seems to be the one that most people remember. Not surprising considering that scene with the blood in the pipes!
@@stuviewtv'Charlie Boy' with the Nkisi doll was always my favourite.
Good quiz. Remembered quite a few of them.
I enjoyed that. Remembering all but 1, it was great to hear them all once again.
Brilliant Stu , I got about eight wrong and although I remembered the theme songs matching them to the shows was a bit tougher.
Don't think I did "too" badly given I'm Australian. A lot of the themes were familiar but I couldn't name all the shows.
Great to hear them again.
Fab! Was hoping to hear 'Blake 7', that theme was epic!
And - Fab Lab Too!!!
Manor Born...definitely! And then you explained why it wasn't. Good fun. Thanks. 😊
21 - To Manor Born & Yes Minister are almost identical pieces of music!!! I loved Mind Your Language - could never be shown on British TV now!
A walk in the park for me, this one. Got every single one right. But then, it is a bit of a hobby of mine collecting theme tunes, so I wasn't likely to miss any of these.
Top stuff!
ahhhh.... nothing like a good dose of nostalgia :) I may only have got 9 right but damn I enjoyed the whole lot! Thanks 👏👏👏
Glad you enjoyed the memories! Many thanks.
Its surprising how just a few notes can jog great memories, thank you for the smiles. 17 correct
You're welcome 😊
Hi Stu great memories of classic tv.
Got 20/25👍
Nice score!
Great quiz thanks again Stu I had 13/25👍👍😁
Thanks Ken!
Thanks for sharing, took me back....
It was all going so well until 19 and 20. Also missed 25, so 22/25 declared. 17 one of the best themes ever. Fond memories of 4pm Saturday afternoons watching the wrestling. Happier, simpler times. Good quiz.👍
I used to love watching the wrestling on a Saturday afternoon. Just a shame there was about two hours of horse racing to get through first!
Ouch! 8 wrong! And yeah you got me good on the Yes Minister thought it was To The Manor Born! Lulled into a false sense of security by the first ten and then there was much groaning!🤣
Same here...lol. 😅
Thanks Stu. Another great quiz. 22/25.
Great score!
Great work Stu. Another wonderful trip down Memory Lane. My wife and I got quite a few. We too thought it was 'to the manor born....' 😂😂😂❤
Glad you enjoyed it! Amazing how often those two series are mixed up when it comes to their theme tunes.
Yes that one tripped me up as well.
I missed out on 8. Thought it was to the Manor born. 17.
Fab Lab!!! That Was Doodleriffic!!!
That was brilliant fun! 🤣🤣🤣😂
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks.
nice one, ah the memories i got 19/25 and yes i did think of Brian Jacks can still feel the pain of those squat thrusts 😮
So proud of myself for getting Take the high road goodness knows how !
Really well put together !
Totally honest 17 for me, mostly due to age!
Would love to go through more torture like this, especially as a first-time viewer and brand-new subscriber!
Keep em comin’!
JCHK
Glad you enjoyed the video, despite the torture! Thanks so much for subscribing.
20/25. Yes Minister tripped me up. I guessed To the Manor Born.
Same manor born 😂 11 wrong for me.

The scariest 'Hammer House Of Horror' was one with a man driving down a country road at night in the rain.
A shadowy figure in a yellow Souwester appears as if from out of nowhere. The driver stops to pick him up and later gets stabbed in the throat if I remember rightly by a withered hand but with a very long sharp nail attached to it.
The Two Faces of Evil- definitely one of the scariest of all the episodes.
Great selection. I managed to get about two-thirds of them right.
The Black Beauty Theme tune I have as my ring tone I loved that. Show plus the horse.
As a child that grew up in the late 70s and ealry 80s this was right down my street. However still got 7 wrong!
Good video, and a nice trip down memory lane. I do feel, though, that the tunes should continue through the countdowns, and actually even through the reveal...

Only got about half right.Theme tune for Black Beauty being one of my favourite TV series as a young teenager.🙂
6 misses.
And the episode where Denholm Elliott keeps waking up in a nightmare was the best Hammer ep
Why were the shows back then. So much better than the shows of today .
You only remember the good, your mind blocks out the bad. No-one even back then considered Crossroads to be good. Or Take the high road. Or Albion Market (remember that abortion?)
There's some good stuff on modern TV/streaming. Fringe was a masterpiece, fir example.

Started off really well and then it got tough
Really good quiz Stu
Thanks!
Yes Minister did catch me out. Such a smart TV show. I wonder what Sir Humphrey Appleby would make of this lot.
The Z Cars theme was called Night Patrol I think.
20 correct god takes you right back ❤ I was only watching Hammer House of Horror the other week 😆 the theme that scared me was Armchair Thriller think it was more the shadow when it sits and grips the arms 😳🙈🙈🙈🤪
Very enjoyable. Got about 70%.
Got them all, but the Yes Minister theme was confused with To the Manor Born. Regarding the hammer House of Horror, the theme was just brilliant and with it, you did not feel anything sinister until the face at the window of the house/castle!
Good video throughly enjoyed it. Have you thought of doing an American tv music quiz for the 80’s-90’s on UK tv?
Good themes
Angels, Take The High Road, Superstarts and World of Sport are the only ones I missed.
Dick Turpin was my favourite ever thing when I was 9. I had the BBC endorsed book, by Richard Caprenter and read it dozens of times. I probably still have it - it was bought from one of those mail order things they did in primary schools. Never saw the later series(es) after the first two: amazing how you can shift so much at that age, I think after that I (and my mates) were obsessed with Bodie and Doyle, so pretended to be them instead. Swiftnick (Michael Deeks?) was in a Hammer Horror episode with the great (and greatly underrated) Angela Bruce, IIRC it was called "Charlie Boy". Re-watching Hammer House of Horror, you can see how nearly everything was filmed in one location - something I didn;t notice as a child, and with a lo-res TV standard, compounded by sometimes watching them on a black and white portable, which I would occasionally be allowed in my bedroom. Between this techonolgy and also age, some programmes stand up better than others, but I still really enjoy them all!
I remember Charlie Boy being one of my favourite episodes of Hammer House of Horror at the time.
I love your quizzes, this one was frustrating… I sat there saying “oh, god, what was that… oh, of course!” Brilliant. You asked about Hammer House of Horror, I remember one episode that featured a dinner reunion for a group of air crash survivors and I think a reporter gate crashed to get a story. Turned out the survivors only survived because they resorted to cannibalism and the journalist ended up staying for dinner, I believe he was delicious.
Glad you enjoy the quizzes. Many thanks! Oh yes, I remember that episode of Hammer House of Horror too. The Thirteenth Reunion I think it was called.
Superstars will always be, for me, Kevin Keegan coming off his bike.
Hammer House of Horror.
Most frightening. Maybe The Two Faces of Evil, the hitchhiker episode.
Then the Peter Cushing one where he kept Brian Cox trapped with a tiger.
Think I'd agree with you there. Good choices.
12/25! And yes, I confused the theme tune with To the Manor Born! Aww...😮
I started off really well and then after halfway through I couldn’t remember any of them. 😆
However, the second one I know by heart, I’m a Sweeney girl through and through; and the theme is my ringtone!
just done the quiz with my mum (i was born in 74, she was born in 52) didnt go too well lol. knew most of the themes, just couldnt connect them, i still have the Minder theme tune on vinyl single, i'm guessing my Dad must have bought it, fancied himself as a bit of a Terry Mccann in those days, Capri included. went a bit Arthur Daley later on, Jag included.
14 scored I could hum along to most of the but couldn't remember the shows.
A poor 12. I recognised a lot more but couldn't put a name to them. Used to watch Hammer house of horror with my grandad - that certainly made me the horror fan that I am today - The house that bled to death is the one that is the most memorable and I've seen that one a fire few times since then. Great video.
Thanks!
Same, as said to another commenter who said he recognised all😀 I said of course we all heard them all.. I got 11 wrong,.was.confident I'd do better 😂😂😂
One of my favourite shows Z, cars and van der valk .
I would like to see a “Goodies” series about the U.K. as the country is at present. I’m sure it would be hilarious. There is so much material they could use.
Oh yes, definitively a rich vein of material!
Ha that was fantastic 😁👍
Oh my god,theme 3 and 4 2 of my favourites Black Beauty and Blockbusters loved them both,haha remember getting told off by my mum for saying "can I have a p Bob" haha love it ❤❤😂😂😂😅😊
I only got 2: Tales Of The Unexpected & Dave Allen At Large. Saw both shows on American TV.
Also, they lifted the original U.S. Monday Night Football theme for Superstars. 🤨
Truly enjoyed that Stu...
All of them right, but one! As 'yes minister ' I truly did get mixed up with ' to the manor born' ha ha 😂..what a good prediction you had , that some of us might get it wrong 😂
Glad you enjoyed it! Amazing how those two shows get mixed up. Mind you, the theme tunes are so similar.
Small correction - the Van der Valk theme was released as a single in Nov 72, but it didn't top the charts until almost a year later in Sept 73.
Thanks for the info - much appreciated
I scored badly on this one but to comment on the hammer house of horror (one theme that I got straight away) I was 10 when they aired and the top three that disturbed me for life in this order was... the house that bled to death, the doppelganger one and Charlie boy, closely followed by the werewolf kids one. That short series was brilliant.
Best hammer House of horror that i remember was " the house that bled to death " such a twist in the last 2 minutes 😱
23/25🤩🎊 A great score from me.... but then I am from an age when my childhood was spent watching only three channels on television 📺 I was doing brilliantly until “Angels.” I recognised the tune, but forgot the programme!! The only series I had never heard of was “Hammer House of Horror.”🧛🏼♂️ Great Quiz🤔 With so many wonderful television 📺 theme tunes 🎶 You could do another Quiz🧐
Nice score! Yes, there's definitely more than enough great themes for another quiz.
Yeah, the Yes Minister and TTMB threw a spanner in the works!
Me too I said to the manor bourne
Born even 😂
superb, around 85 percent
Many thanks. Nice score too!
Only two, Black Beauty solely because I have watched Alan Partridge several times (it’s played at the end of the last episode of series 1 and Lynn shares this fact), it’s also the theme tune used for a Finnish comedy series in the late 90s. And Generation Game I knew only because I’ve binged that on TH-cam.
11 not heard that since the mid nineties and 20 mins ago one hit wonders on bbc four was on and number 12 FTW - was actually no 1 on the day i was born (september)
I still remember how the entire country stayed in to watch the final episode of Z-Cars. Didn't it end with the cast standing behind the police station shutters as they went down for the final time?
11 over 14. Due to my dislike of costume dramas and soaps! Someone commented on the Sweeney being good. Most junior ranking coppers thought it was THE BEST, and packed squadrooms all over london to see it. Then John Thaw started doing highbrow CRAP like Morse & Stanley & The Women! - Ah! well, can't win 'em all! Excellent channel Stu - keep it up!!!! OH¬ & the BBC even did a documentary in the 80S about how much those junior coppers enjoyed it - not the DCSs and such those (too much truth, Met Police???)
Many thanks!
As a 15yo in 1980, I was allowed to watch Hammer House of Horror on a Saturday night. I don't remember being particularly scared by any episode though. Still watch the DVD box set occasionally.
I was 11 and I remember watching it, the one that always sticks in my mind I think was called the House that dripped blood or something the blood pouring out of the pipes onto the kids birthday party will stay with me forever haha.
I got 18 , didn't get :
Van der Valk
Z cars
World of sport
Take the high road
Angels
Superststars
Dick Turpin
Great work again Stu, enjoyed that ! Cheers
Many thanks!
The Hammer house of horror episode that terrified me as a child was 'The two faces of Evil', with the hitchhiker... but my favourite will always be 'Charlie Boy' with the evil Nkisi Doll.
