I don't know but a piece of a Heartbeat trivia is that the character, 'Bernie Scripps' takes his name from my uncle. They liked the name and asked if they could use it!

A good friend of mine in our village , has written episodes in the past for Heartneat , and his daughter appeared in a role in one episode : does this count in the SS / Heartbeat name dropping stakes ?

Heartbeat has a they history of featuring snippets of NS tunes , and are usually " here and gone 2 before you realise it .......

I asked someone I know who is involved with the company who make the repro signs for Heartbeat ( and other nostalgia programmes ) , if they knew who compiled the music , but was told all they knew , that it was an independant company who specialise in doing so .

Heartbeat has a habit - as you will know - of " attaching " records to a particular situation or scene : I would not be surprised if it was linked to , as you state , a hit and run incident .......

The usage of NS records has diminished in recent series : when it first started , there was a plethora of dancefloor classics ......

Remember watching it first time round and sure Lillian Dupree - Hide and Seek was also played. Must've been someone in the know.

Not just Heartbeat folks , usually northern tracks in Wife Swap , City Gardener and in the early days of Location , Location , whoever this independent music company are , they're compilers have good taste

what'smore worrying is you've nothing better to do on a Sunday Morning at 9am than watch Heartbeat

There was a programme on 'Football in the 70s' a couple of years ago which featured a constant soundtrack of Northern Soul songs - most of which were never, ever heard outside of clubs at the time - including Chuck Wood, 'Bari Track' etc!

I could just imagine some young Media Studies graduate figuring;

"Hmmm! Football programme set in the 70s eh?. Any North-ern football clubs featured? North-ern Soul was really popular back in the old days wasn't it? That er, place in Wigan n' stuff? (RETRO! Groovy baby!) - Now what did I do with that North-ern Soul compilation CD I found on the tube...?"

Re. "Heatbeat" I bet it's the only time that Linda Jones' "Hypnotized" ever got played on TV (or mainstream radio for that matter!) I caught it once - I was staggered.
