It's called "In A Party Mood" by Jack Strachey and was the theme tune for the radio programme Housewives Choice.

You can listen to it, and other early radio themes, at:

I didn't see the programme Mike, but was it definitely that one? There was a similar tune (which, I often used to confuse with yours, that they aways seemed play on TV clips of steam trains in the 50s/60s. I can hum it but I've forgotten the name- I'll try to find it.
Apologies if you were right.
I think Puffin' Billy is the tune you're thinking of, factor. You can hear it here at the start of the Uncle Mac show.
