I know who you are. You is Bod.

Jonny Dee's funny article from the Guardian won't mean much to you if you don't have fond memories of this surreal 70s kids programme, but you have to agree that "life would be so much better if everyone had their own theme tune."

Plus this article bigs up the god-like Derek Griffiths, virtually the first black man on British telly.

I didn't realise Derek wrote that music! It's being used on an advert at the moment...

My brother used to do impressions of Alberto the frog who used to choose a milkshake flavour. He would say "Hmmmm, oxtail...". How we laughed...

*wipes a nostalgic tear from her eye*

Anxious, I changed the link - now you can view an episode if you have Flash.

Never noticed just how 'sexy' Aunt Flo's theme tune was before.

Only he could carry off that 'tasche, Greavsie.
