complete long shot - Wainwright's Walks

Zebedee, 3 March, 2009 at 13:06 Posted on Off Topic Posts 0 11

Yes, I've tried googling.

I'm trying to find out what the theme music is to this as an idea for my dad's funeral. I can't find it on I-player, or any more details on the BBC website. Does anyone have any ideas. The only person I know IRL who would know, was my dad <wry smile>!

    I would give the BBC a call- in my experience they are very good at providing this sort of info.

    I'm very sorry to hear about your father ?

    SophieM - yes, there were two series made with Julia Bradbury presenting - they've been shown at various times on BBC2 and BBC4. I think it was the same theme tune for both series - I don't know if it will be suitable, but it is something that would be relevant to him (he was a keen walker, and loved the Lakes). If you could find out I'd really appreciate it.

    Or you could get in contact with the company who made the programs and ask them ?

    Sophie - I don't suppose you've heard anything have you? I emailled Skyworks, but no response from them. It's not a major problem if not as we've got a few other possibilites lined up.

    Thanks.

    I know that Alex Cornish is shown as the composer on Wainwright's walks - but I'm not sure whether his was just the incidental music

    Thanks for trying.

    Smint - I got to Alex Cornish as well, but I think he was just the incidental music.

    If I get chance I'll try the beeb.
