london's burning theme tune

[MadcapMan]

I miss these kind of telly programs

[boo89able]

londons burning what a show i miss it

[coolbeans851]

i think i hated this show because it was on sunday night and i had to go to bed for school

[sparklin940]

londans burning!

[muttsnuts100]

sunday nights are not the same now all we get is crap on tv aimed at teenagers c,mon itv at least bring this back on 1 of your channels instead of putting constant repeats of the saint and the professinals on

[MYBIGKINDHEART]

@muttsnuts100 no night is the same anymore, the tv and that goes for all the channels i see show nothing but bollocks, i don't know why i even have a tv for anymore, oh yes to play my own dvds and blu-rays etc, that shows how bad tv has got then, even the music today is bollocks too, i don't know what all the old stars would say about it all now, they'd probably die twice

[MrsTJB1]

this was a cracking show, never missed an episode, and was going out with a fireman at the time lol

[Solinsparadise]

London is burning at this moment

[edcurant]

were can i buy a capri sport?

[evilrobottolhurst]

It's right to say that nothing lasts for ever. Even the fans were calling this series "London's Bonking" by the end.

The first - understated - theme was the best. The whole concept based on the film by Mr. Maureen Lipman, Jack Rosenthal, who (co?-)wrote the first episode of Coronation St.!

[MrDontstareitsrude]

98 theme is my fave but that series was crap as soon as we got to 98 LB was crap.

[colinluzio]

Sunday night in the early 90s, when this was playing it would be bedtime then school next morning.

@132000volts

THANK YOU!!!!!!

[chinook654]

sounds like a 70s porn movie theme :-\

[DaveyC95]

@chinook654 Maybe you have a dirty mind. This was the second theme and final two i think. Preferred the original one used during first few series with the original station officer in charge.

[132000Volts]

This theme isn't that great really a bit disappointing

[s34n93]

@132000Volts its not all one theme, theres 3 in there if you bothered to read the description

[132000Volts]

@s34n93 I did but I only remember it for one of them, the other two aren't that great either, but still better than cruddy modern themes they put out today

[LLOYD19851012]

@s34n93 The episode that comes to mind when hearing this is when billy fell into a skip full of acid that was used to strip paint of doors.

[googleisshittoss]

@132000Volts I agree...when you compare it to say 'Casualty'...it's pretty bland

[ItsBurnett1984]

1998 - 2001... i can only guess the composer was a Sonic the hedgehog fan, since they used the music from Ice Cap Zone in Sonic 3....

[machinehead001]

All the TV channels doing re-runs of shows and no-one shows this one!! It'd be great to have this original back on TV

[s34n93]

@machinehead001 series 13 and 14 are on a loop on DMAX at 2am daily lol

[steveh31]

@s34n93

Thanks for telling me about Dmax just looked will have to record it

[vknong]

I used to love it when they got a call and slid down the pipes :)

[Lycheaa]

I didn't realise it was still on in 2002, thought it had finished before then. Wow shows how quick time flies.

The orginal theme was definitely the best. As soon as you hear it you automatically think of the show.

[LollieSmith]

@Lycheaa yeah i stopped watching before 2002. the best were with Vaseline, bayleaf, sicknote,, charisma, george ect.. the good ole days

[geography27]

The original version is the best version. It seemed to fit with the programme, but the other two versions were shit. A theme tune can sometimes make or break a programme - first instincts.

[jh94]

In my opinion...

The first theme was the best one.

The second one was good and sort of matched the show it was for, sounded like firefighting music.

The third one was completeley shit!

[mixmaster1984]

this is the best, the original theme 1980's cant beat it

[lildiscodancer]

the 2002 theme is the best

[Hellingly]

Love the original theme, the 1998 theme is so catchy, but HATE the 2002 theme, it's awful.

[Strawberrycream69]

the best tv show ever madt the dennis is best.

[donnamurry20]

London's Burning was the greatest show on tv it should have never been axed I watched this since the Movie. Vaseline was my all time favorite along with Baylead, John Hallam and Chrisma.

[FlaviusConstantius]

It was axed because it was rubbish by the end. Vaseline, Charisma, Bayleaf etc had all long gone.

[brushtraction]

@FlaviusConstantius aye siknote kevin zorba maggie tate kate jose collin halllam ethnic vasaline sally billy recall gaffa and bullstrode theyre all ether retiered dead or invalidded out of the bregade trans-fired and replaced with youngsters like dan zoie ect ect

[leejohn70]

London's Burning was the best show on TV the original cast was the best Bayleaf, Vaseline, George and Sicknote if only the original cast stayed in the show.

[onions9]

Do you know this hasn't crossed my mind for years! Used to love watching it

[firebrigade999]

My favourite theme tune was the 1998-2001.

[P999FFB]

I would love them to reform and make some new ones as long as they actually make the cast turn out to fires aswell as there social lives!!!!

Its not fair!!

Police officers have The Bill

Paramedics have Casualty and Holby City

And us firefighters......nothing!!!

[s34n93]

i know !!

we should get justin lee collins to run a campaign to bring it back like he has done with other programs of the time

[P999FFB]

Hey thats not a bad idea actually!!

[firebrigade999]

I think there should be firefighting TV Programme or bring back LB.

[firedude201234]

@firebrigade999

we had (emergency!) in the 70's in the us and now i have 3 series on dvd but i need the rest and it plays on retro tv at 4pm et

[dukeofstradone]

@P999FFB the police dont have the Bill anymore, it went to the dogs the last few years, just like the last few seasons of LB

[copsarmy]

@P999FFB Bills been cancled :(

[firedude201234]

@P999FFB

in MA united states we have "EMERGENCY!" from the 70's which is played everyday at 4pm its great

[MYBIGKINDHEART]

@firedude201234 DO you mean emergency ward ten as i don't know any thing called emergency in the 70's

[AgentMcgeek]

@MYBIGKINDHEART I do believe there was an american "Emergency" but i doubt it was shown here in the uk. Check wikipedia.

[s34n93]

@firedude201234

i have seen a few clips of that here on youtube, i wouldnt mind seeing a whole espisode of it sometime

[MrAndrewGCGibson]

@P999FFB Steel River Blues anyone? 

[s34n93]

@MrAndrewGCGibson if you search for the channel B251 he has a few clips of Steel River Blues

[brushtraction]

@MrAndrewGCGibson mmmm no steel river blues was... well ... weak

[THEDeanBatch]

@P999FFB Actually Paramedics dont really feature much or at all on Holby City, its only Doctors and Nurses. I can see you wrote this 2 years ago but the police no longer has The Bill so we do need London's Burning and The Bill back on.

[bigytye]

london.s burning was 1 of best dramer film av seen in my life from 1986 too 1997 was best but from 1998 till 2002 end was rubbish

[Firefighternorway]

Great video!

When did they get the Saxon?

[s34n93]

they bought one new and got it bodied to lfb specification then they bought a damaged one from hampshire fire and rescue and rebodied it

[Firefighternorway]

I meant in what season did Blackwall get a Saxon...

[s34n93]

oh right in season ten when they had an rta with both dennis appliances on the way to a shout

[Firefighternorway]

Oki, thanks :)

[swiftvideoproduction]
