The Greatest Title Sequence I’ve Ever Seen

Tom Scott | May 10, 2025



Or: “Tom’s Cockup Trip”.

This is a story about a television title sequence, and about me, as a child, watching it. It’s also a warning about how YouTube won’t last forever, and it’s the reason I’m climbing one particular hill in the Lake District. Merry Christmas, Denis Norden.
