Does anyone know what the classical violin music is that's used at the end of the final episode of series three? It starts in the scene with ted and ralph at ted's wife's graveside and plays over the end credits. It's incredibly beautiful and i would love to get hold of a copy.

Yes, it is called Fantasia On A Theme by Thomas Tallis(I've got it on a Vaughan Williams compilation) and was also used in Master and Commander.

Listen to a sample of it here, track number 6.

Forgot to add the whole track is 15+ mins long but you'll only get a random 30 second sample there but it is definitely the same track used in The Fast Show.

Thank you Philtaz. The name sounds familiar. I think charlie higson mentioned it in an interview once. I will look it up. Thanks again.
