Drylaw Hearts Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 ......by the Attic Lights (who?). http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=T1xXSp-85Yk Dennis Waterman/Terry McCann should hunt these [email protected] down and give then a serious smack. A terrible version of the best TV Theme Tune - ever. I can't say I'm looking forwatd to the programme either - Minder without George Cole is just wrong. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Templeton Peck Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 What a load of *****e that is. All dressed up like Chas and Dave. Cockney ******. "Pub fights are great" Ho ho. I reckon the repeats on ITV4 will get more viewers than that. PS Is that Lesley from Time Gentlemen Please? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mark_Mywords Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 The new version of the theme tune is a little quick, but ok. I have no idea why they are bringing back Minder. Minder was perfect when Waterman and Cole were the stars. The new version will be Politically correct at all times, which will seem odd. Ritchie... not a good enough actor for this IMO. It will be the usual cheeky cockney acting. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Beverley Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 all i can say is.... PISH Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Commander Harris Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 all i can say is.... PISH did you have to say it in "Comic Sans" Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beverley Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 did you have to say it in "Comic Sans" yes, because comic sans became so common it became pish my font of choice is, and has been for many years, georgia Quote Link to post Share on other sites
wibble Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 Minder was always mind-numbingly poor. Like the Broons - same storyline nearly every week. Same gags, same Mockney cliches. Pass the razorblades. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Drylaw Hearts Posted January 10, 2009 Author Share Posted January 10, 2009 Btw........... Hearts masseur Davie Valentine does a great version of the Minder theme tune. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beverley Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 dave is a very talented musician DH so i'm not surprised about that never ever heard him doing the theme from minder though i have to admit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Drylaw Hearts Posted January 10, 2009 Author Share Posted January 10, 2009 dave is a very talented musician DH so i'm not surprised about that never ever heard him doing the theme from minder though i have to admit. Just about every Saturday night me and a few of the troops used to venture downstairs in Ryans Bars and we used to ask him to sing it over and over again. It cost us a few glasses of port right enough but it was worth it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Carl Spackler Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 The original minder theme tune was garbage too really. It's still "classic" but it's not a good piece of music! The jury is out on the Shane Ritchie, I hope he's good but how can you live up to George Cole's version? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beverley Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 I don't think he been in Ryans for years Bev and I don't know if he plays anywhere at all now. i knew he'd left, but for some thought you meant more recently, and thought maybe he'd gone back Quote Link to post Share on other sites
