Little Question for you 1980's Soap Opera guru's
At work (fed up) im trying to recall the name of the soap opera from the 80's that started with the theme song (that of course I cant chime too online
) that started of with a rose bud, and as the song progressed the rose grew up the tv screen into a large vine thoney rose as an introduction to the programme
Any ideas?
I know its vague into, but it getting on my bloody nerves

Hi Lisa. Yes British, and I thought it was the actress (Lynda) from the old oxo adverts, but I was wrong so that's made it worse because I've nothing to go by, apart from the theme tune I vaguely recall plus the rose at the start of the programme that evolved into a large vine type rose, or at least that's how I recall it (hmmm)

I think Bouquet of Barbed Wire had something like that.

Was it a serious programme or a comedy?

Lol, I expected it might play on a few minds. The YouTube clip I played on my phone, although it bring back some good memories the theme I had in mind wasn't played
I'd offer a reward, but to be honest I slept ok last night not knowing hahaaa!
