Ha LOVE IT! Wasn't Ridley a bit of a 'Wild child' back in the day? Like one of the first to be papped out and about in the clubs and the like, on this side of the pond at least.
Ahhh, a trip down memory lane! Looking at this now, it's quite corny but I really wish they made TV like this nowadays. Richard O'Sullivan is a legend and it's so sad to see him now after suffering a stroke a few years back.
I shouldn't watch stuff like this. It's so depressing, when you think of all the great TV sitcoms there used to be on TV, and you compare it with what there is now. (sigh..) Gawd, I miss the 70's and 80's..
@Walliburton Yeah, the 80`s were definatetly the best years by far. I was obsessed with George and Andrew of Wham days! Duran Duran Culture Club...just proves how good these were as they are back now!
I've had that theme tune in my head for the last twenty odd years. I remember watching this when I was a kid. So it really does exist and it wasn't just my imagination! Looks so dated now though but still fab!!
Man id forgotten all about this show. I haven't seen that intro in over 20 years but I still remember the words to it. Even though I was only about 7 or 8 I still thought the chick on this show was pretty hot. I wonder what ever happened to her.
joanna ridley really used to like her, in fact the only reson to watch if your 12..whats she do now then ?.

How wonderfull to see this opening of an old tv favourite!
I would watch this with my mother when i was around 9-10yrs old and thought Sam was so trendy!
Sad times now to see such great programmes and sitcoms like this are just a memory...Reality tv has a lot to answer for thats for sure.

I didn't know about this.
I know it's a theme tune but I'm surprised because Peter Skellern always refused to do jingles for commercials.

Yes I remember this show from the 80's too, one of the former LWT's better productions.
