How revolutionary of ITV to introduce a brand new theme tune to their brand new prime time Saturday night show...Well, sort of brand new. preloved really. Up a Gumtree.

Another one of the wonderful, kind, 'ITV Family' bites the dust ....

I think my point was along the lines of ITV keep bringing back these old shows. However, they lack the charm of the original series.

Mulhern's reiteration of Catchphrase, for example, is not a patch on the Roy Walker version of near 40 to 25 years ago (Roy did 1986 to 1999, until he was dumped by ITV). Despite the upgraded graphics and better prizes. In many cases it is the host (and contestants) that make a show.

Also back in the olden days, you rarely had the same faces crop up over and over, on half a dozen concurrent shows.
