Not exactly retro, but Dexter

Something that's troubled me for ages, though - where does the hand come from that smacks the insect - something is very, very wrong...

Surely it has to be Minder? After all, I wrote the theme tune [1], sang the theme tune....

Joking aside, it was pretty cool BITD.

Has to take the blame, however indirectly, for the New Tricks theme tune though.

Ooh, another (fairly obscure) one, but a favourite of mine.

The Beiderbecke Affair

(as an aside/refugee from the Telly Totty thread)
Wasn't Barbara Flynn lovely?

One of the finest TV series ever!

And yes she was lovely, but that wit would have intimidated me

Of course the Allman Brothers Jessica is up there...

For some reason, all this makes me think of is a fat, ranting, middle-age bore with no dress sense and a god-awful barnet. Can't think why....

Because I suggested it???

Oh, you don't know me so you must mean someone else!
