Midweek Sports Special titles - Granada in-vision continuity - Charles Foster - 1985

A change of programme to bring us the FA Cup Semi-Final replay between Man Utd and Liverpool. From 17th April 1985 if my research is correct!
Ref:XT3/93/01:30

That was a great theme. Used to watch it just to hear it.

This tune was like an oasis in the middle of the dreaded school week….a brief glimpse of Saturday joy

I remember being a 9 year old in 1985, playing footy in the the school playground, and running around the pitch humming this tune to myself, as we played. Always loved it!

That;s the stuff childhood dreams are made of!

[@lh1469]

Same here, 9 years old

[@vinnysamways63]

The days when boxing, football and well, any sport was free to watch.

Steve Rider… still a legend… and a massive part of BTCC on ITV4

[@sarahroberts8965]

Best theme tune ever

[@speakertreatz]

Charles Foster looks so like my GrandDa as I remember him, the same hair, tan and tinted glasses, it's uncanny. Same vibe. Thanks for uploading

[@mrgobrien]

as 7 of 9 said to the holographic doctor in star trek voyager - your final 2 notes in the repeated initial fanfare were slightly off key - try to do better next time..

[@anthonyperkins7556]

I like the Midweek Sports Special Theme Tune

[@mrgobrien]

0:45 - the 2 captains phil neal (liverpool) and brian robson (man utd) were both trying to ignore whatever (intimidating) sign that man city had hanging above the tunnel exit like many teams started to have around that time?

Hosted by a pre BBC Steve Rider

[@scottysaurus1]
