Why on earth did they change it? This arrangement is far superior to the version they have now.
I also think the same thing every time I hear the Crimewatch theme or virtually any other updated theme tune. If they're perfect, why improve them????
Isn't this great? The drum-roll at the beginning immediately announces - "here is something special: pay attention". No wonder Blue Peter was Children's TV Royalty.

I must be ancient now I've started seeking out old theme tunes from the 60s and 70s!

"Everything is twickety-boo. Twickety-boo. Twickety-boo." Lyrics added in an old Danny Kaye movie called "Merry Andrew."

Great theme! But isn't there a longer version of it than this?
By the way, it was used until January 1979.

@StickersOnTheWallUK I agree, its just the best! It sound much nicer than the one now! Why just not keep a tradition??
