Does anyone remember the theme tune to ITV's World In Action current affairs weekly programme? A late 60's / early 70's organ instrumental. Name and Artist if possible please.

Think it was by Ronnie Hazelhurst but can't remember the title.
Sorry, I think it was by Laurie Johnson.

Both wrong, sorry!

The theme tune is called "Jam for World in Action" and is by Jonathon Weston.

You can hear an MP3 of the tune on this site

Thank you all
It was Nuntucket Sleighride by Mountain. A classic!!
Sunriser - I think you're thinking of Weekend World, presented first by Peter Jay and then by Brian Walden. Not a million miles away from it, admittedly.

littleoldme - You re absolutely right, and I should have posted a better answer, but I made exactly the same mistake, confusing weekend world/world in action, trying to track down the same music several years ago.

Nantucket Sleighride, what a track!!!
its not nantucket sleigh ride, keep looking
