Does anyone else find the theme extremely catchy? I've only been watching the show for a couple of weeks but I've caught myself humming it sssoooooooo many times.. and getting some strange looks! Haven't been able to encourage anyone to watch it yet though  Apart from my younger sister, she found it vaguely funny but wasn't interested in seeing anymore But yeah, it's been in my head pretty much constantly since the first episode... Anyone else have this?! lol |

yep!! I love the themesong and hum it all the time. I made a thread ages back asking if people knew what it was called, or the history of it. It's supposed to be all military right? Military yet funny. And I was wondering if it was a real song beforehand, or if they just created it for the show. I can't believe you've only been watching for a few weeks, you seem truly hooked!  |

Hehe yeah I am well and truly hooked!
No idea if it was a song before, sounds to me like something created for the show, or possibly for another show and used for Brittas in the end maybe?

By 'another song' I mean like, a really really old one, like some old military tune they found somewhere...

I think it's just the tune that a jazz band plays to march too. I've heard it in parades before but not as 'remixed'.

hmn, except they're playing themesongs on that cd, so yeah it would be called the Brittas Empire. I still don't know if it's actually an original song or not... because since it's a theme song cd, they'd just call it the Brittas Empire not the 'something or other march' which is what the theme could have been based on... hmn.

I thought I'd heard it before (maybe a slightly different version) but I could be wrong, a lot of those military march sorf of songs sound the same...
