Extremely Annoying background music

It sounds like there is an orchestra tuning up in the background. It is difficult to hear what is being said. Please stop the loud music in TV programmes, we usually get fed up straining to hear and turn over.

Annoying music and weird sounds

Trying to watch the 5th series but that annoying music over the whole of the episodes is to much.. I'm turning it off

Awful background noise

This interesting programme is ruined by the background noise throughout. Using music or sound to create atmosphere or illustrate a theme is often useful, but this programme just supplies annoying noise, an awful jangling of non-musical sounds. The only reason I can guess for it is that the producers prescribe to a nonsensical notion that noise forces the brain to concentrate more on the programme and thus avoids the viewer's attention wandering. What it does for me is to make it so annoying that I am tempted to switch off. Who on earth is responsible for this dreadful attack on viewers' senses?

Orkney island episode

Always loved this series, always liked Geoffrey's forthrightness. But my god talk about bias from the start. Only in my opinion of course. But surely the woman had a choice in it. They had a child together for heaven sake.

Everything after that was obviously was wrong.

Music

The story tellers are great, the cases interesting but I avoid watching purely because the music is awful!! The theme tune I guess is meant to be mood setting for the seaside settings of the tales however the only mood setting it provides for me is to switch channel and watch something else.

Does the opening music last longer than other programs or does it just feel like it goes on forever because it's so dreadful? The high pitched ships bell needs to go all together and a new theme tune should be considered before I can go back to viewing again.shame as the concept of the program is to my liking.
