    My miserable score will remain private! If you still get a point for shouting at the screen "Oh, that's errr, oh it's, can't think of it's name" then I got them all🤣🤣as it is I shall have to reflect on my poor performance and do better next time. That was great, a real trip down memory lane there so thank you very much👏👏👍

    I still think that the theme to Black Beauty stands up as a genuine piece of classical music. Absolutely beautiful.
    I'd add also add the Lightening Tree theme from Follyfoot.
    This can be confirmed because I also know, just how much fudge is required to give a kid a treat and the preferred destination for anybody having a bath in a private jet with a bar of Coussins Imperial Leather soap.
    Fantastic vid as always Stu, even though I was thwarted by 'The High Road' and at least three others where shouting "Robin's Nest" proved fruitless.

    The scariest 'Hammer House Of Horror' was one with a man driving down a country road at night in the rain.
    A shadowy figure in a yellow Souwester appears as if from out of nowhere. The driver stops to pick him up and later gets stabbed in the throat if I remember rightly by a withered hand but with a very long sharp nail attached to it.

    Great stuff, love these, and happy to say I did actually get a couple wrong, but only because I thought they were something else! I got Hammer House of Horror straight away though - I was very lucky to meet Peter Cushing, when he took a Sunday off filming his episode, "The Silent Scream". Not the series scariest (that was probably The House That Bled To Death) but definitely a chiller. He was staying at a hotel run by my best friend's parents, and my mates mum came up and said "Peter is in the lounge if you want to go and say hello". 1980. Three years after he played Moff Tarkin in Star Wars. I was 13!! Are you kidding? My mate and I spent two very chatty hours talking to this sweet, gentle, charming and friendly gentleman. He even bought us a coke each!! A memory I cherish every day.

I always felt I was outside playing in the street & park as a kid... but seeing my score on this quiz makes me feel I spent more time in the house than I remember !!! One I thought you might have included was "Just good friends" another Ronnie Hazelhurst ditty... I absolutely love the the final credit trumpet solo version more than I should for some reason... I think I must've subliminally heard it during a particularly happy event in my youth.
    Other potentials... "The Adventures of Robinson Crusoe" and "the flashing blade"

    I still remember how the entire country stayed in to watch the final episode of Z-Cars. Didn't it end with the cast standing behind the police station shutters as they went down for the final time?

    Only two, Black Beauty solely because I have watched Alan Partridge several times (it’s played at the end of the last episode of series 1 and Lynn shares this fact), it’s also the theme tune used for a Finnish comedy series in the late 90s. And Generation Game I knew only because I’ve binged that on UA-cam.

    All of them right, but one! As 'yes minister ' I truly did get mixed up with ' to the manor born' ha ha 😂..what a good prediction you had , that some of us might get it wrong 😂

      Glad you enjoyed it! Amazing how those two shows get mixed up. Mind you, the theme tunes are so similar.

    I got some of the tv themes right like Crossroads (heard it was famous for its wobbly sets) lol 😂, Blockbusters. No-one was a better host than the late, Bob Holness. (RIP Bob!),
    Black Beauty, Hi-De-Hi, The Sweeney, Minder, The Professionals, forgot about, Tales of the Unexpected (loved that song and series), Parkinson (RIP Parky) but I don’t remember the other tv themes as I was born in 1980 but a few of the programmes like, The Professionals, The Sweeney and Minder are still repeated on tv.

    Great video! Really appreciate your content as it takes me back to better times in the late 60s-70s when I was growing up. TV was so much better then with none of this modern PC, gender identity nonsense.

    I scored badly on this one but to comment on the hammer house of horror (one theme that I got straight away) I was 10 when they aired and the top three that disturbed me for life in this order was... the house that bled to death, the doppelganger one and Charlie boy, closely followed by the werewolf kids one. That short series was brilliant.

  • @tech10k14
    @tech10k14 10 місяців тому +1

    The Hammer house of horror episode that terrified me as a child was 'The two faces of Evil', with the hitchhiker... but my favourite will always be 'Charlie Boy' with the evil Nkisi Doll.

    As a 15yo in 1980, I was allowed to watch Hammer House of Horror on a Saturday night. I don't remember being particularly scared by any episode though. Still watch the DVD box set occasionally.

    • @skapunkno1
      @skapunkno1 9 місяців тому

      I was 11 and I remember watching it, the one that always sticks in my mind I think was called the House that dripped blood or something the blood pouring out of the pipes onto the kids birthday party will stay with me forever haha.

  • @AndrewHalliwell
    @AndrewHalliwell 10 місяців тому +1

    I don't think Hammer's House of Horror ever actually scared me, but a few of the stories still stick in my mind.
    The house that bled to death.
    The one with the genetically engineered plants and the adopted kid seeing the ghost of their real one who died after eating some of it.
    The one with the dream loop. "Why did you do it? Why did you kill your wife?"
    And the one with Peter Cushing as, what they originally think, is a concentration camp survivor, but he was one of the guards. And traps them in their house at the end with an electrified force field.

      Thriller seamed like a popular drama on a Saturday evening back in the early seventies but my Mum was always reluctant to allow me to sit up and watch it. If only I had a portable TV set in my bedroom then!

    Hammer House of Horror.
    Most frightening. Maybe The Two Faces of Evil, the hitchhiker episode.
    Then the Peter Cushing one where he kept Brian Cox trapped with a tiger.

    I didn't do too bad, considering I was just a small child in the seventies, and wasn't allowed to watch many of these shows... I got about two-thirds of them right.
    Did anyone else have a weird thing going on with some of these theme tunes? A few of them ('Angels' and 'Z-Cars' being two examples) I was absolutely CERTAIN had lyrics to them - I was even trying to remember them, to help me guess the theme tune by singing them - but, once I knew the answer, I knew they didn't, they were only ever instrumentals. Maybe some tunes just had such a solid beat and melody line they sounded like they SHOULD'VE had lyrics.
