  • "Runaround" was a Southern production, wasn't it?! That's the programme Southern reminds me of, anyway!

  • @DaveyC95 I'm indirectly scared every time I hear a slightly out-of-tune acoustic guitar ;)

  • Many thanks for the posting. I always liked the Southern tv ident-it was a real shame when they lost out to TVS in 1982 I feel. It does bring back memories though!

  • Oh Oh... this one used to really scare me. I can still remember crying about it aged 5 in 1974. Why? I haven't a clue.... but at age 41 it still gives me the creeps. The Thames TV ident used to scare me too when I was little. Wonderful tv memories!

  • @sturz26 It is pretty eerie. I think it may have something to do with the way the star 'crawls' its way out of that circle!

  • Always freaked me out, this one. Probably because it always preceded:

    1. How! - with its freaky opening theme

    2. Wurzel Gummidge, a programme which disturbed me massively

  • Awesome - never forgotten that little tune. Probably haven't heard it since 1981 - 29 years - you're kidding me!!!!

  • Love that classical guitar! My daughter is currently learning it!

  • Famous Five about to start! I'm 10 years old again!

  • quaint. how much we've changed since.

  • Out of Town by Jack Hargreves and HOW!

  • this is first ident for colour, yes?

  • This ID has got to be the prettiest one I've seen or heard! A real touch of class!

  • Cool!!!!!!!

  • I always enjoyed the Southern ident and music, even though I lived in the London area, as it reminded me of Worzel Gummidge and Runaround amongst other programmes.

  • Runaround - that was quality! The star prize was always a bike. Hosted my Mike Reid, later of Eastenders fame "Runaraaaaaand...........naaaw­!!"

  • I like the music, It's Ultra-Retro!

  • Its called "southern rhapsody". The full 5-minute version is on the right if yu just scroll down to "southern TV start up 70s"

  • Thanks!

  • excellent very nostalgic, it was my region indent and it always reminds me of worzel gummidge etc lol love it!! thanks for the posting

  • Lovely, reminds me of Out of Town, Worzel Gummidge, Houseparty etc, etc...

  • yes it was :-)

  • Wasn't that famous guitar jingle still being used with that ident in black and white?
