The Z Cars one was really exciting.

I once had the misfortune of happening across an exhibition with some of the tunes that they play in Orange Marches. One just cracked me up because it was BLATANTLY the Z Cars tune!!
Every time I hear that tune now, all I think of are a load of bigots twats all dressed up like the soldiers from the Mcleans Toothpaste ads marching along playing flutes - not a terribly great image.

Has to be Thundercats

Bloody 'ell, that brings back loads of memories over the years of sitting watching it as a kid whilst eating dinner, and cursing my parents for not feeding us something a bit more healthier! - I bet none of the guys on the tour would eat Crispy pancakes and chips for tea!

I hate football as you all know, but I remember this well, and you are right, it just brings sheer unbridled joy!
