edit. Didn't read what you said properly. It was never theme music but they used it on a part of the show. Title: Jean Michel Jarre- Oxygene Part IV (help) Post by: flammableBen on Sunday, April 27, 2008, 19:28:26 Fuck knows. Classic tune though. If I ever write a tv detective show I'm using it for the theme tune.
Let's see. Crime solving Doctors has been done, Gardeners yep, Priest yep, Writer yep, Gardeners yep, OCD policeman yep, alocholic divorcee with a limp yep, Magician yep. I think I'm going to have to go with a Professional Burglar who solves crimes. He'll be more of a robin hood style thief, but still with a dark side on show. Maybe a few episodes he'll use his detective skills to frame nasty types for victimless (or at least victems that deserved it) crimes he committed him self. Who wouldn't watch that on a Sunday Afternoon, maybe repeated in the BBC One pre-CBBC afternoon slot?

In my head it's either a quiz show or a crap cop show, or maybe some science informative show. Definitely something on telly anyway.
Title: Jean Michel Jarre- Oxygene Part IV (help) Post by: flammableBen on Sunday, April 27, 2008, 20:26:22 Oh and it'll be the theme tune to "The Cat Detective"

Title: Jean Michel Jarre- Oxygene Part IV (help) Post by: flammableBen on Sunday, April 27, 2008, 20:50:21 For some reason the BBC documentary series QED just popped into my head. It doesn't even have a wikipedia page and it doesn't quite fit right.
Title: Jean Michel Jarre- Oxygene Part IV (help) Post by: Simon Pieman on Sunday, April 27, 2008, 21:21:06 This has bugged me too as it seems familiar.
A google search makes reference to a kid's telly show drama thing which was linked to Stonehenge (or something similar). That doesn't ring any bells though.

Title: Jean Michel Jarre- Oxygene Part IV (help) Post by: flammableBen on Sunday, April 27, 2008, 22:27:42 I had the original radio effort on CD but I lent it to someone and never got it back.

You could be thinking of late 70's classic Children of the Stones (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Children_of_the_stones) although I doubt it.

NMH Title: Jean Michel Jarre- Oxygene Part IV (help) Post by: flammableBen on Monday, April 28, 2008, 00:00:02 Yeah we know. You can't argue that it doesn't sound like it should have been used as the theme tune to an iconic cop drama or quiz show though.

It's a bit jolly.
