Theme to the Onedin line

limeydal · 16 March 2007, 23:28

Ok , any music buffs out there

I need the theme to the Onedin line on MP3 or wave file for a slidehow presentation I am doing for the museum.
Tried googling it but ,lots of the free sites are closed down now

So anyone happen to have it on a Tv themes record or similar or know any good sites to try ?
(Original by Aram Khachaturian )

Thank you Limeydal and Richard. Good site and of course, the original is the best. Brings back old memories for us. Do you know if you can buy that series on DVD? We would love to watch it again after 25+ years.
Regards.

Did some research on the availabilty of the DVDs and they are rare. First of all the BBC has only released the first 3 series of 9 and Amazon .com ( USA) has 1 used and one new copy of series 1. @ $188.00. Guess it is very popular and the BBC are making a lot of money.

this i the one I came across,but notice its PAL format

In the latter series most of the 'at sea' shots were filmed in and around Falmouth. We used to tune in each week to spot the locations. The stars of the show became quite familiar in town doing their shopping etc.

The Schooner "Pascual Flores" spent many years layed up in Milford Docks after she finished filming with the Onedin Line. She was used as a tourist attraction down here for a while until she was shipped off back to Spain on a ship back in 1999.

From what I remember, they were going to completely restore her to her former glory..... she was pretty fragile when we had her, and whilst we towed her out she needed airbags underneath to keep her up at the stern.
