Do you know what the name of the song was that was playing at the end credits?

[Pippa68]

Oh how it took me back..

Doctor Mopp Vs Windy Miller ~ wonder who would win in a fight?

[hubblebubble]

is that the name of the band and the song?

[Oppala]

Doctor Mopp and Windy Miller are characters from Camberwick Green, upon which the opening sequence was based where Sam appeared from the music box.

Hubblebubble, there is a little list of songs on the BBC site used in the ep... I really can't remember what was playing at the end at all but seeing as Annie and Sam were talking about going to a Roxy Music concert it could have been one of their songs... here's a link to the BBC site anyway

There is a little clip of the Camberwick Green intro on Youtube but it cuts off before Gene really lays into the 'nonce' with a dustbin lid, shame!

I'm hoping someone will upload the full version soon.

If you go onto the LOM website you can down load the Camberwick Green Sam & Gene characters as wallpaper or screen saver. I personally have the BBC test card girl as wall paper and the BBC clock as my screensaver. Loved the bit where sam was going nuts and told Gene to leave Camberwick Green alone. Brill programme!!!!!!!!

The opening was excellent!!
whoever thought of that is brilliant.
As an avid fan of camberwick green in the 70's I thought it was such a good opening - and then when Sam said to Gene "stay out of Camberwick Green" - pure genius!

I dont know how its going to end, but it will be a sad day when it does!
