March 21st, 2010
  • does anyone know what the theme tune to channel 4 news is and who it is by? that's in the u.k also where i can get it from?


  • The Channel 4 News theme music, entitled "Best Endeavour," was composed by Alan Hawkshaw. "Alan tops our poll thanks to his work for landmark kids telly and daytime broadcasting institutions. Yes, by penning the themes for Grange Hill and Countdown his work will resonate with the generation that grew up through the late 1970s and 1980s for decades to come. Alan had a fine track record working as a session musician with Dusty Springfield, Tom Jones and others (including, sadly, Cliff Richard) before turning his hand to television. He still makes a mint from Channel 4, having come up with not just Countdown but Channel 4 News and Racing themes."
