Does anyone have a good copy of the theme tune from the ITV game show Chain Letters? I'm after the version that was used from 1995 onwards.

Thanks in advance.

Was this the show where the instructions were sung as part of the theme tune?

it was done by him, Im looking for a clean version of the original version, I have heard some people have spoken with him but its a hit and REAL miss with him some time

I could get up a rip which could help cover you until you can get/found a clean copy?

Take a word, then change a letter.
Do it again, and you've got a chain!
That's how you play-ay-ay Chain Letters!
Chain Letters!
Doo-doo-do-do-do,
Doo-doo-do-do-do,
Woah-oh,
Here's Beadle!


And not forgetting, my favourite bit, half way through...

Winner so far!

(or was it 'Win a sofa?')

LOL. Was the "Here's Beadle" line changed for the other hosts or did they dispense with it altogether?

It was used with Andrew O' Connor too, not sure about the guy who presented after him. When the show returned in 1995, the presenters name was replaced with "Woah-oh, Chain Letters!"

Here's the Andrew O'Connor version however, his name is ruined by the reverb.

Cheers, nice to hear that. I think the other presenters were Dave Spikey, Ted Robbins in the 1995 version and then some guy called Vince.
