I’m assuming they used the first minute-and-a-half or so, The last part didn’t sound familiar, so I assume ITV was into the adverts by then.

Wow! hearing that again gave me goosebumps. I probably haven’t heard that in 40 years. I had totally forgotten about the closing theme. Was it an edited version used on the programme? I can’t imagine it really went on for that long.

According to Wikipedia, it’s disputed. Usually credited to Jonathon Weston, but American folk musician Shawn Phillips also claims ownership. The YouTube embed above credits it to Phillips

Any idea who composed the theme? (It’s great)
