Does anyone know what the classical music is that plays in 'Butterflies' with Wendy Craig, when she sees or meets up with 'Leonard'? I have searched all over.......just cannot find it----- Help!!!

Re: Butterflies

Good gentle humoured show. Did she ever consumate her 'affair' with the other man then?

Nic Lindhurst was extremely skinny in that one. I did feel sorry for Geoffrey Palmers character, especially his elder sons stupid feud with him.

Re: Butterflies

Ah. Never understood the meaning of the title-Butterflies though...unless it was linking it with the songs lyrics.

I never knew that Dolly parton composed the Theme Music for Butterflies Darren, that's great to know - ace!! I always liked Butterflie, not Carla Lane's greatest creation- - that honour belongs to Bread without a shadow of doubt I feel. I never liked the Liver Birds somehow though/for some reason. I liked Lov too - another Carla creation circa 1993-1994, that was good I thought, though it only had a short run on TV.

I think in the end though Bread copied Butterflies with Leonard's wife secretly seeing another man just like Mrs Boswell in Bread saw Derek in secret as both were strained with a Family to contend with, which led to this. Very wierd indeed how both took such a "road" I think.
