Phone Tunes Posted Mon Sep 18 15:26:55 BST 2000 by Richard

Does anyone have their mobile phone ring tune set to the theme tune of an obscure (or otherwise) TV theme tune. Or anything weird, basically.

Mine is currently set to Doctor Who, but I might have a go at soething better this evening.

I was sat in my doctor's waiting room today, and they had piped muzak versions of early 80s vintage tv themes playing in there. It passed the time nicely, trying to identify them. I spotted Soap, Emmerdale Farm (definitely the version with Farm in the title) and one that might have been Black Beauty, but I wasn't sure.

My phone plays the start of "Hanging on the Telephone" by Blondie. Y'know, the ringing bit afore the tune kicks in. Boh.

Okay, I changed it to "Dogtanian and the 3 muskahounds" though now it is the tune from some 70's show or other which was used for several years as Mark Radcliffe's them tune on Radio 1.

That'll be the theme to "Danger Man" then.

I met someone last week with "Close To You" by the Carpenters on their phone. It got annoying after a while.
