Agree, Brookside theme smashes EastEnders out of the water. That synth and drum pattern - just incredible.

I’m from NYC but I would see “Brookside” during trips to the UK. I always loved the opening when they showed the Liver Building, the Mersey Ferry, the Albert Dock, St. George’s Hall, and the two cathedrals. I’ve been to Liverpool many times; have always enjoyed it.

Oh God the memories

My dad lived in Liverpool around this time, I was 8 and living in Glasgow with my mum (who I didn’t really get on with) and every time I heard this theme I’d think of him and it made me sad

RIP Jimmy

Sssssshhhush you can’t talk Brookside’s on. That’s what my mum would always say. We got clipped round the head if we talked haha. 👌👌👍👍😂😂

What a lovely lovely place to live

Aa much as i love eastenders....brookside had the best musical intro theme.

I just realised it sounds very much like ‘I Hear You Now’ by Jon & Vangelis from a year or two earlier

The bizzies haha. As a child I struggled to understand what they were saying. Even as an adult I do haha. It’s the Livvvvvveeerrrrpppoooolll accent haha lol. 👌👌🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️😂😂

Epic intro - and RIP Dean Sullivan aka Jimmy

Any Brookside super fans reading this, I want your opinion on a weird Mandela Effect regarding the character Sinbad. Does anybody remember his supposed real name being Thomas Hardy Edward Sweeney? Because I watched Brookie avidly, and I swear the sign above his shop always read that. Featured in every episode, during the opening titles, in the later part of the 90's. Well, turns out his middle name was actually Henry. I'm just really interested to know if anyone else remembers Hardy, not Henry. Because it really weirded me out, when I watched old clips and saw that I'd, apparently, always read his name wrong. I so vividly remember it being Hardy. Very strange.

Me too, they released a huge crossroads set id love a brookside set.

Geek query to all Brookie Mad 'eads! This intro , though obviously in stereo surround when compared to the mono output of the original theme , seems to have a more muted bass and percussion compared to its debut episodes played over the original intro images , in 1991. Any thoughts?

I loved c4 when it launched Brookside The tube great shows fantastic theme tune.

To me, the theme tune has always sounded like a slowed down version of Jean-Michel Jarre' s Equinoxe.

Bring back Brookside came on Phil Redmond who write brookside bring it back on channel 4 it was the best channel 4 Program better than East Ender's

The only storyline I can remember off the top of me head is when that mad blonde woman was stalking Jimmy...
