Let's run with this one!

Twin Peaks - Angelo Badalamenti
Jeeves & Wooster - Ann Dudley
Krypton Factor - Art of Noise
BBC Test Cricket - Soul Limbo by Booket T & the M.G.'s

Bottom End Credits - The Bum Notes
The Bridge (Bron/Broen) - Hollow Talk by the Choir of Young Believers
Bod - Derek Griffiths
BBC Darts - Douglas Wood who also did the Snooker
Big Brother - Elementfour, which in reality is another Paul Oakenfold vehicle, a criminally underrated (but very wealthy off all his royalties) artist.
The Life and Times of David Lloyd George - Chi Mai, a classic bit of Morricone
BBC Formula 1 - (A bit of) The Chain by Fleetwood Mac
Game On - Where I Find My Heaven by the Gigolo Aunts
Peep Show - Flagpole Sitta by Third Eye Blind
2.4 Children - Howard Goodall (a leftfield choice for best TV comedies? It was insanely popular and re-watching one earlier it's actually pretty good for a family friendly)
Roobarb & Custard - Johnny Hawksworth (a perfect match for the programme)
Grandstand (with classic ident!) - Keith Mansfield
Casualty (the original) - Ken Freeman
Mission Impossible - Lalo Schifrin
Three from Laurie Johnson
Animal Magic

Ski Sunday - Pop Goes Bach by Sam Fonteyn
World in Action (the later theme!) - Mick Weaver and Shawn Phillips (there is some argument about who wrote this!)
1986 Mexico World Cup ITV coverage, latterly Saint & Greavsie - Aztec Gold, Silsoe. The BBC one was also good - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xgfKIeIgO4E
Might as well chuck up Nessun Dorma (it has to be the 1972 recording!!!) from Italia 90. When you actually read-up about this section in the opera though...
The Equalizer - Stewart Copeland
Sportsnight - Tony Hatch
My So Called Life - Snuffy Walden
This Life - The Way Out
Bloody hell that's a list and a half. I watched too much TV as a kid.
There's a whole other thread waiting to happen for film scores and tunes...
