True Blood has a pretty cool theme.

Has anyone mentioned monkey magic? Because that's the correct answer.

CBA to read back . . Minder?

Minder is the winner. On my most recent visit to China, a young female factory worker picked up my phone and navigated to the music playlist. She gave each song just a cursory listen, but upon hearing the opening bars of the Minder theme, she started dancing and listened right to the end, then copied the song file to her own phone. That night, a whole group of women in the factory were performing intricate willowy dance moves to the swinging sound of Kenny and Waterman.

The theme tune changed somewhere midway through, and not for the better, about the time that Andrew Sachs starting dubbing the voice of Tripitaka's horse, Yu-Lin.
