OTHER INFORMATION The series was made for Meridian Broadcasting by production company Workhouse at The Fountain Studios in New Malden and directed by David Crozier . The theme music was composed by Dave Hutton who was also the Senior Cameraman on the first four series of the show. The theme tune was recorded at Gordon Thrussell's studios at Ashford in Kent and the credits show music by 'Hutt and Thrust'. This was because the director, David Crozier, did not want the same name for two different credits on the programme (ie: Snr Cameraman and Music).
