@@kirstinhiggins8548 Hope so because I liked the actors and it'll be great to see tin head and big mick Johnson. Unfinished bussiness was so good. Nat and Georgia storyline was different. In 1994 6 I was on bus and guy got on and omg the guy looked so much like Jimmy cockhill I couldn't believe it.
@@stringer-ik1pc Yes, may be so but it ran at the end of the 90's as well, considering the very last episode was aired on the 4 November 2003. This link may help: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brookside_(TV_series)
Amazing. Takes me back to the eighties and nineties when this became the theme. Such an uplifting yet foreboding introduction. It might have been the storyline, the news of the day or the weather but the atmosphere of this track always somehow fitted in with the mood of the times in which this great kitchen sink drama graced our screens. Makes me sad for a time long gone. RIP Brookside.
@@kirstinhiggins8548 I know! Great news which I saw this morning. Not sure it will be easy to fit in every episode in batches of 10 compared to the two a week and/ or the omnibus on a Saturday but I am looking forward to a trip back to the eighties when it returns. I was not allowed to watch it for the first couple of years on account of the language sometimes used (!) but I don't think there is much chance of a ban being imposed now by my wife. By today's standards it was nothing but there was controversy around this in the early days. I am sure a lot of people will be pleased at its return.
My Favourite Actress on Brookside Alexandrea Fletcher... I spoke to her on the phone at Studio's set Brookside.. Love Liverpool ❤️❤️❤️, Miss her it's been a long time.... 😊😊👍👍 Enjoy the Theme tune Brookside
Look for the full length version of the theme tune to the children's television show Hartbeat. Once it goes past the main part it becomes much more like a dance tune
Gives me absolute shivers. Seriously. The instant this theme starts I'm back watching my old student-days portable TV, credits rolling up the screen: Julia Brogan - Gladys Ambrose.....Diana Spence - Paula Frances.....Max Farnham - Steven Pinder.....DD Dixon - Irene Marot etc etc. Oh my god, how do I still remember them, 30 years later?! Goes to show how many episodes I watched back in the day. It was unmissable stuff.
I remember in the early 90s driving from the North East to Liverpool to visit the set. Only got as far as the barrier butcsaw Sinbad and Barry Grant coming in
yeah be nice be surprised if happened tho now real families live on there if did come back have be all new cast and maybe some old faces popping in now and again be good :)
When me and my mate lived in Korea and there were primarily Yanks, we used to play this on UA-cam. You could spot the people from the British Isles a mile off as they would always react.
Emmerdale will always be my fave but me, my mum and dad used to love Brookside especially as a kid and growing up in the 90s but my dad said it was better in the beginning but such a shame it isn't on anymore
Because the ratings dropped after endless ridiculous overreliance on Sensationalism. Practically destroying it's reputation for realism. And became a stereotype of "Guns and Explosions."
It's now back on STV player which is free on sky and freeview the first 5 episodes of season 1 are now showing with more getting added as the weeks progress
Watched this greatest soap ever from when i was growing up in the 90s to when it finished in 2003 n last year on my bday weekend i went to Liverpool specifically to find the Brookside Close estate 🥰😍😘❤ best ever TV dream wish n it ended on my bday to it was the perfect dream weekend ❤️❤🥰😍🫣
The only soap I liked. Brookside did not pull its punches on storylines. Drugs , gangsters , incest , domestic violence , religious extremism even a mystery virus.

My god all those signature shots of the city an then the suburbs an the theme 😐 a tsunami of childhood feels too much 💗
Love your username.
I miss the 90s. This theme always takes me back to this era.
Same..my grandmother rest her used to watch it on a Saturday

Don't miss the BSE infected though!
In my opinion the best U.K. soap theme tune ever!!!!
and still best uk soap all time my opinion ;)
R.I.P Dean Sullivan aka Jimmy Corkhill
RIP Dean Sullivan
I still remember this soap and I watched it from 1994 till last episode! Storylines were great and it had the best characters ever!
I still miss it!
It's coming back!

Wasn't one of them banging his own sister or something like that? Lol only on brookside!!

I can’t believe to this day it got replaced by Frigging Hollyoaks !!! They need to bring it back

Miss This Programme So Much The Nat And Georgia Storyline Had to Be The Greatest Thing Ever Seen On British Television
Here because my Mum and I were discussing soap themes which are absolute bangers. (Yes, we are very sad individuals.)
Cultaholic sent me here
Same
Ross has a passion for this theme that rivals nothing else I’ve ever seen
Can you link to the video you're referencing please?
Reminds me of when I was like 6 years old ...memoriesss good old england
Reminds me when I was 26 years old.
pix046 LOL 😂
Wow memories flooding back 😊
The version I grew up with! Fond memories:)
I like the drum machine sound. Those 90's theme tunes were trippy. Like that acid house Byker Grove theme.
just listened to Byker Grove theme haha, never realised the acid house beat as an innocent child. Same with hey arthur being dub.
Mate that just cracked me the fuck up after going back and listening to byker grove 🤣

@@brendansheehan7714 Haha yes
RIP Jimmy Corkhill (Dean Sullivan).
THOSE CLASSIC OPENING NOTES ON BROOKSIDE WERE JUST AWESOME AND SO WERE THE CLOSING CREDITS. WATCHED IT EVERDAY OF EVERY WEEK...
What a waste of life!
+John Randles not if he enjoyed it
Omg brings back memories I never missed an episode !
Brookside will forever be the greatest soap broadcast on British TV.
Phil Redmond really pulled it out of the bag with Brookside.
Absolutely! I would love it to return.
Shame he's too busy making absolute shite in the form of Hollyoaks; a show that was never good.
Then fell into terrible sensationalism from 1995.... with ever increasingly ridiculousness.
Brookside I watched it for years and miss it. I like the tune aswell. Some good memories on the close.
I could swear this is mixed. It's too PERFECT.
Gives me absolute shivers. Seriously.

This theme used to make me cry lol
why?
@@rickhardman7376 cause i was a little bitch obviously
Brings back memories of my wonderful children and getting them to bed before Brookside 😉
Brookside pushed the boundaries back then It was the best soap opera about and I still can't get my head around why it ended
move on ... There's more in this life to be upset about
Because people stopped watching. In a country of 70 million people there were less than a million watching Brookside in its last year. Figure it out.
Loved this show. I lived with my gran and watched emmerdale and coronation street so this was brilliant and a great change for those.
My all time favourite soap they should never have stopped making it I still miss it
Stephen Sutton
Calm down calm down
They had to - they were getting like 300,000 views which is terrible.
Can't forget those classic lines... - Eh, Eh. Calm Down, Just Calm down
God almighty, Jimmy...
I remember the 90s to cos I grew up in the 90s and TV and music was much better than now I am 33 born in the 80s
Great catchy tune, love this
I totally agree with you.
Brookside needs to come back I miss it alot use to watch this when I was a kid
Can't believe it's been off air 20 years. Suprised it got axed. Thought there was a place for it to compete with EastEnders, Emmerdale and corry
@Steven Pipper love brookside one best soaps I ever seen i still watch bits and peace of it on youtube
I love this theme tune ♥️
loved Brookside to bits wish it was still on
Good old Jimmy corkhill, my favourite character , and Jackie corkhill too .
It's pretty amazing how they get soap theme tunes so perfect
I always loved the way that the theme tune seems to be akin to Jean-Michel Jarre’s “Equinoxe 5” and also Jon & Vangelis’ “I Hear You Now”.….
Ahhh yes that's the song I was thinking of that it reminds me of " I hear you now" thanks that was bugging me😂
I remember in the early 90s driving from the North East to Liverpool to visit the set. Only got as far as the barrier butcsaw Sinbad and Barry Grant coming in
Bring back brooky loved it best soap ever on tv by far
It has a very bitter sweet theme, never watched it but loved the music growing up
This is the best soap! It needs to come back 2020 or 2021
yeah be nice be surprised if happened tho now real families live on there if did come back have be all new cast and maybe some old faces popping in now and again be good :)
I remember Brookside vaguely, but the
theme tune that I've just heard, remember that well.
An absolute classic! So sad it got axed! :(
When me and my mate lived in Korea and there were primarily Yanks, we used to play this on UA-cam. You could spot the people from the British Isles a mile off as they would always react.
Emmerdale will always be my fave but me, my mum and dad used to love Brookside especially as a kid and growing up in the 90s but my dad said it was better in the beginning but such a shame it isn't on anymore

I miss this alot use to watch it alot wish It come back on tv
As soap themes go, this is up there with the best. Brookside (and EastEnders) clearly boss it with the percussion from those beats.
The memories are gold
Reminds me of walking down the old Dock Road with my Dad, Nan & Grandad 🙏
Memories!! Miss my Saturday brookie binge. Jesus saves
was and still is best soap of all time still miss it to this day :(
The music reminds me of The Sims and Sims City. 😃 Groovy!
It's now back on STV player which is free on sky and freeview the first 5 episodes of season 1 are now showing with more getting added as the weeks progress
have they got to 1996 yet
brookside best show TV UK 90s
I remember this program i grew up in the 1990s i was born In the 80s I am. 31 now
Staying at a Premier Inn in Birkenhead bought me here.
Good old times watching this Jimmy cork hill 😃
I remember watching this with my aunty its a shame that it's gone
Love it!!❤️Bring New Brookside soon pls🙏
Ross got me here

Drugs, Jimmy? In our house! What if our Kylie had found them?
Shut it Jackie
Bringing that filth in here? After what it did to our little Jimmy?
still best soap all time and forever will be
love brookside best soap drama ever😊bring back brookie
This is the reason people in Salford like Gary Neville hate Liverpool, because its such an awesome city with awesome people
It is awesome and so is Exeter.
Light 106 year who the frig is Gary Neville?
@@MrRickster83, an ex-Manchester United, and England footballer, he played at right-back, for both teams.
Used to be my fave soap was gutted when it stopped filming
Sounds like a slowed down version of Equinoxe 5 by Jean Michel Jarre
David McAllister It always reminds me of "I hear you now" - Jon & Vangelis.
@@wylco1959 Very much 'I hear you now', sure Vangelis had no part in the composition of the theme tune ???
may be 13 but this show is awesome....only live 5 mins away from here and mate lives on close so I can have a look round all i want 😂
The tears man... The fucking Tears 😭 😭😭😭😢
Love it when the synth beat drops in at the start. Sounds retro but still really good.
Omnibus in the 90’s bruh!
God is miss brookside
I loved watching Brokside
Watched this greatest soap ever from when i was growing up in the 90s to when it finished in 2003 n last year on my bday weekend i went to Liverpool specifically to find the Brookside Close estate 🥰😍😘❤ best ever TV dream wish n it ended on my bday to it was the perfect dream weekend ❤️❤🥰😍🫣
Cultaholic brought me here
Memoriessssss
This show was so underated BBBS Bring Back Brookside
Love the 90s version
I miss the 90s
I miss the 80s.
Brookside is the best
why do i remember this i was like 0 years old
It's what Saturday afternoons were made for
miss this😣
Never forget enjoy hearing theme
It was made in Liverpool, and had more views in London. Than any other city.
We know it's a good tune karrrm down karrrm down
The tune is the best.
Mine and mum's favourite soap
That set is now used in Hollyoaks!
Get rid of Hollyokes and bring back Brookside
The only soap I liked. Brookside did not pull its punches on storylines. Drugs , gangsters , incest , domestic violence , religious extremism even a mystery virus.
But it went OTT and unbelievable almost self-parody in places
Best soap theme ever
Thank you
Needs to come back in 2020
I used to think what it would be like living in liverpool. Not realising then that thirty years later I actually would be.
Episodes of the other soaps have been released on dvd not many episodes of Brookside.
