What was this show? Page 2

Maybe t was that comedy drama with Bobby Box as the incurable gambler. It starred Ray Brooks and Sharon Duce - name escapes me.

There was a show starring Ray Brooks and Sharon Duce about a gambing addict - the main character was called Bobby Box - name escapes me. Don't think it was a sitcom though - bit depressing really.

That was Big Deal wasn't it.
Not the answer though

That had a theme tune sung by the guy out of Bucks Fizz

Hello all,

I am looking for some information on what I think was an 80's British sitcom. It has a theme tune that had the lyrics "You win some, You lose some, You keep on smiling through the blues some. Every day's another day of your life".
Any information would be appreciated. Thanks

I can't help but think that it's something Dennis Waterman would sing.

Still no answers on this?

Give it another 8 years maybe....

I think the show was called 'West End Tales' and it starred the now deceased actor Robin Nedwell who also starred in various 60/70's 'Doctor' sitcoms with Barry Evans of 'Mind Your Language' fame.
The theme song was fantastic. It only lasted one season which was a huge shame!

The original poster requested to know this ten years ago

You may possibly have to notify his next of kin
