Shame the makers of this brilliant soap didn't use some of the ace music that came from liverpudlian bands during the 80s. You're a legend for uploading these. Thanks so much or should I say 'nice one, ta la'
Oh, I always thought that the updated theme tune was introduced at episode 1000, to coincide with the introduction of the parade and the new sequences which immediately followed. I was surprised to hear it arrive as early as episode 882. So, over a year earlier than I'd thought.
I really like the new theme, but I will always have a soft spot for the original. The new one sounds much brighter, utilising the digital, high-end sound of the 90s era, where Dolby and Nicam Stereo Sound was coming as standard on many new TVs.
