RENT A GHOST THEME TUNE

[naughtyusmaximus1969]

aaah, British Childrens TV from the 80's - a golden period, something that taught us all.

No matter how long it has been is still think of the woman that plays Audrey in Cornation Street as Nadia Popoff because she was so funny....

[MusicalMemoryLane]

To Steve Block so sorry to hear about your fathers death. I also lost my father this year theres not a day that goes by that i don't think of him but i have plenty of happy memories which makes things easier. My condolences to your family.

[clearoutqueen33]

RIP Bob Block. Certainly was a most excellent show. I'll never forget Nadia Popoff, even in Corrie Street, she's not the same!

[SteveTheMusicMan1]

My father, Bob Block, conceived and wrote the entire Rentaghost series, which ran for 8 years. Fans will be sad to hear that Bob died peacefully at the age of 89 on 17th April 2011. His work will be fondly remembered by many.

[FlamingFairy]

@SteveTheMusicMan1 RIP Bob Block - thanks for memories

[astephens1970]

@SteveTheMusicMan1 Sad news indeed. The show was one of those children's classics that will live on in the memories of many grown ups!

[emmyjo720]

@SteveTheMusicMan1 It seems that a great generation is dying off now....

[m79gga]

@SteveTheMusicMan1 This was my favourite programme when I was wee. Still love it today :) Definitely fondly remembered by me <3 x

[TheGeneralfemi]

loved renta ghost

[TANYA70100]

II used to love that manic laugh right at the end! I was too young to remember anything else

[southamptongayguy]

Classic!!

[medicaldoctor369]

Try singing this without hunching over.

[bazfanv2]

Its an even money bet that Timothy Claypole is in the bighouse for child molestation.

[mattfinn]

@bazfanv2 if he didnt die from an AIDS related illness years ago that was.

[IEatManure]

@mattfinn Very true, that's why you never see on tv these days. Timothy got too much clay on his pole

[TheAstradyne]

@bazfanv2 Well what can u say to someone who has child molestation on the brain. Must be something you think of a lot. What does that make you?

[Funmiope]

Grew up on this!

[gauri44]

Bring back Rent a ghost!!!!

[UrgentementeUK]

@robwwww Really sorry to hear that, Rentaghost was one of my favourite programs as a kid (with all of a whole 3 channels for most of the time, LOL...)

Timothy Claypole was always my fave, bit manic and mischevious, probably wouldn't be allowed in todays world!

[nettieheartful]

that was so weird!

[GraemeHull]

Ohhh, been singing this all day. Such a great program from when I was young.
