I recognised this music - must have heard it in my childhood without paying attention to the programme.
Back when the BBC made quality content.
Best theme music of all time.
My twin sister and I were teenagers when this programme first broadcast, have only wonderful memories to this day of Morricone opening sequence track! Will watch this with now pleasure 😊
I haven't seen this series since it was originally screened on the BBC. Philip Madoc was simply wonderful in the title role
Many thanks for putting this series on to RUclips as I have been looking for it everywhere.
Loved this seres when it was first aired, always remembered it fondly, and the wonderful theme music.
Never knew this existe d- My God - thank you. Philip Madoc - a wonder.
I always remember the opening sequence and the music by Morricone. Another brilliant BBC drama..
And lucky not " pulled " by them as well.
My dad and I were extras in this
Theme tune is brilliant as well as the series
Born in Manchester I believe, moved to Llanystumdwy on the Llyn Peninsula as a child.
I loved this series and remember buying the title music on a single.
+Jane Ray I can understand why. I am a great fan of Ennio Morricone and he definitely has composed some of the most striking music ever written.
+Cool2BCeltic +Jane Ray I fell in love with Chi Mai on Sat 30th August 1997. There is a long story behind that but suffice to say it led me to buy an Ennio greatest hits and see him live in New York, Verona and London twice.
the composer died today 6th july 2020 thats what got me here and many other hollywood spagetti westerns them music true class
Me too 1981 it got to no 2 in the charts. X
Makes me tear up every time I hear it
The theme music is deliciously haunting. I can understand why people liked it. This is the second time I've seen the series. Oh btw, both men were geniuses. One passed the bar with honors, and went on to run the practice by himself, and David was a talented parliamentarian.
Ennio Morricone
0:01 - 1:12 RIP Maestro Ennio Morricone. composer of this masterpiece theme song.
No idea this was him. Sad to learn of his passing. Really wanted to see him live before he left us. Loved The Mission.
@@darthmong7196 He wrote so many movie series/scores, including "The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly," "The Mission," "Cinema Paradiso," and this one (used both for as the "Lloyd George" theme and for the French movie "The Professional").
One of my mother's favourites from back in the day.
My mum watched it i dont think I did but I do remember the theme tune
i love the Welsh
Judging by this School scene one can understand why LLoyd George dveloped into a Great Statesman and did what he did to improve the lives of those who fell on hard times. Apart from one or two politicians of today very few match up to what this Man did. Too busy worried about what the polling thinks.
I saw this 1981 it was excellent. I would like Britain to keep its tradition and its history.I support the Liberal policy of PR voting system for future UK general election electing the House of Commons.
If that ever happens, Britain is doomed.
RIP Morricone
Nice
Wow I remember this as a child. There's a massive boulder next to that river, that every member of my family since 1926 has sat atop and had their picture taken. Most recently my daughter as a newborn in 2008 and then again as a small child in 2013. No idea if it was the same river used for this series.
DARTH MONG yes Afon Dwyfor Llanystumdwy Criccieth Wales
@@williamh5103 Yeah that's the one. Down past his grave, walk along the river, through a metal gate and the boulder is there.
@@darthmong7196 just curious, if you had no idea if it was the same river used for this series, how did you know it was the same river used for this series?
@@sirobertson7806 I didn't know. I meant the same river historically, regardless of whether this was shot on location. It's a really steep descent to the river from the road - there are plenty of rivers that would look kind of the same but with better accessibility.
Good
0:00 untill 1:16 This is Chi Mai, and the composer was Maestro Ennio Morricone.
Easy to steal a soundtrack from the french movie Le Professionel.
R.I.P Maestro...†
Hi, chi mai was actually released as a single in 1981 by ennio morricone and it got to no 2 in the uk chart, because of this brilliant series, i bought the single. Much love.
you mean steal from the original score MADELENA by Maestro Ennio Morricone
Me too
Jean-Paul Belmondo Soundtrack too.
Just reading DLl G’s biography & it’s an early observation but it appears at least early on that he was a selfish insular womanising upstart, a gripping story nevertheless…
The man who is responsible for so many Irish lives with a stroke of a pen
irish1 Actually he was a great friend to Ireland, he was put in an impossible place during the (so called) Great War.
I say this as the son of an Old I.R.A. Volunteer. I have mixed feelings about the man but he and John Redmond hobbled the
House of Lords, making it possible to pass Home Rule for Ireland. He can not be blamed for the U.V.F. or “Kaiser Bill”.
It’s easy to make the mistake of judging people out of their time and circumstances.
@@martinnolan4800 no you. Wrong in. Simple terms Collins went to England sent by dev alera and got a bad result mr george and winston Churchill made sure of a civil irish.war
Princess Paley, wife of Grand Duke Paul, stated that the English Ambassador at St. Petersburg, Sir John Buchanan, formented and directed the Russian Revolution on direct instructions from Loyd George, head of the Liberal Party in England.
Loyd George was a 👃 nose man.
