What's that bit of classical music...

[MickeyV]

It's called 'The Devil's Gallop' by Charles Williams and it was most famous as the theme to Dick Barton...Special Agent on BBC radio. He recorded it with the BBC Orchestra for radio, but it was also used in the film of the same name and countless others like Goodies, Goons, Dad's Army, Monty Python etc.

Didn't watch your vid till after I posted like tbf.

I'm sorry, I shouldn't have been so dismissive. How is anyone on here supposed to know what music I know and what music I don't. There's no silly answers, just silly OP responses to those answers. I humbly request everyone's forgiveness.

Used in loads of films and TV shows, it's fast, frantic, and slightly comedic, usually used in some sort of comedy chase sequence like you might get in a Woody Allen farce.
