Return Of The Title Sequence!

[James Martin]

I thought I'd park this here as although it's not on air on Channel 5 & RTÉ yet, it's nevertheless a big deal.

I'm so glad someone's finally said, "let's put it back." The theme tune probably means little to younger audiences who won't have grown up with the call-to-arms playing every evening, especially in Australia where it won't have even aired at the end.  However, it is iconic and in my not so humble opinion removing it was one of the single biggest mistakes the production made.

I don't care for the slow male version but the upbeat female version is a really solid update, and it's the first time in over 21 years the "And from the very first day I saw you" verse has been included.

Whilst it's been edited together with stock shots (albeit ones not seen outside Australia) it hasn't got the cheese factor the 2000's credits had.  It just lifts the whole production.  I'm so glad they've done this, it's such a positive move.

It took me 2 weeks to realise there were new opening credits as I always skip over the recaps. I haven't heard the female ones yet but I didn't like the make vocals. I just don't like that style of singing.

As long as Israel Cannan ain't  singin', It's fine.
