Go forward all those years to Series 9 its still the same as series 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LxmOoL4D2Do&list=PL48554808F44C929D

I'm not convinced those are the original title/credit sequences, the graphics are too clean (and slightly aliased although that may be a YouTube artefact). Possibly recreated for a DVD release?

Compare and contrast with https://youtu.be/01MNeZranp8

That wouldn't be impossible - they did that with Minder if you watch the ITV4 repeats. (And not very well either in terms of recreating the original caption).

They are the original, they are just good quality recordings.

You can see the episode for the credits you've used here and they match up exactly.



It was an 80s show so there's no real reason they wouldn't have decent copies.
