    Anyone know if the new production company are going to keep using this music? I will be gutted if they drop it in favour of some snazzy modern stuff. It is very nostalgic for me.

    Does anyone else love the theme tune?

    The only racing theme tune I’ve liked was the one used by Channel 4 in the 80’s and most of the 90’s.

    I don’t think I’ve enjoyed any of the music they’ve used since then and if they do have a new theme tune I doubt I’ll think much of that either!

    Even though that was before my time I do recognise that music and it is very good. I guess it is a generational thing, I love the current music and will always associate racing with that and resent any change like you did when they changed to my music!

    I thought the current theme tune WAS ‘snazzy modern stuff’.

    I preferred this for the BBC

    which seemed to inspire the current theme

    They should try for something like the old Sportsnight tune, or Ski Sunday. You can’t beat those.

    Going by the anticipated gloom surrounding the new C4 racing coverage, something like the music from ‘Jaws’ might be appropriate. :wink:
