Anyone (probably in UK, USA or Norway) heard the theme and incidental music for the new BBC4 series "Lilyhammer" [sic] with Steven Van Zandt?

Does anyone remember an off beat TV show Called" Gurney Slade" with Anthony Newley .The theme music was by Max Harris who I think played piano on some of Cliff`s recordings.

How about the theme from Z Cars this was a very popular show in the 1960 `s with a hit record by Johnny Keating. there is a Shadows connection there if you think about it.
