This was the original opening to the show back in 1985. The theme music was composed by Simon May, a British musician and composer, best known for composing some of British television's best known theme tunes. It is used in the beginning and ending of every show. If there is a particularly poignant moment at the end, sometime the show ends with a piano intro known as Julia's theme.
The theme is an instumental, but it was recorded with lyrics by the actress Anita Dobson in 1986, charting at #4. She played Angie Watts.
The words to the theme are part of my twitter background, Here are some of the lyrics:
Anyone can fall in love
That's the easy part you must keep it going
Anyone can fall in love
Over the years it has to keep growing
Sun and rain
Joy and pain
There's highs - there's lows
We've no way of knowing.
Anyone can fall in love
