Subject: Micro Men - theme music

 The theme tune for Brian Walden's "Weekend World" current affairs show was,
rather incongruously, "Nantucket Sleighride", the title track of the 1971
album by US blues-rockers Mountain. So I think we can rule that out.

Staying with music, on several occasions in "Micro Men" I could have sworn
they were about to break into some of the "music by Gelg" theme tunes
from *Look
Around You*. Would have made for a very knowing, if historically wholly
inaccurate, little cameo if Peter Packard or Pam Batchelor had been propping
up the bar!
