This was also the first episode to be transmitted on a Monday at 8pm when EE went from 2 to 3 episodes a week

I remember first hearing this theme back in 1994. I think the piano part and possibly the bells were remastered from the original 1985 version but they recorded higher quality drums and added some synthesized strings and harp sounds. I think both this version and the 2009 version are literally remixes of the original 1985 version.

Not sure what you mean by remix. It was a new recording in 1994.

Didn’t the BBC shorten closing theme music as the years went by? The original closing theme was longer.

It started at 90 seconds then was shortened to 60 around 1992ish. Then in 1994 the regular episodes were further shortened to 30 seconds but the omnibus kept 60 seconds. Then around 1998 they came up with that odd 45 second edit where the middle eight doesn't go back to the main theme which they still use today.

They were definitely right to reinstate the original arrangement of the tune, but this rerecording just lacks the kick of the 1985 version. It's a little too mellow sounding. But so much more pleasing than the jazzy theme. They must have felt a bit embarrassed when they had to succumb to demand and air this for the first time.

This sounds grittier, and more 'aggressive" than the original theme though.

Totally agree with @97channel. This sounds soooo "perfect " and melodic, orchestral infact, compared to the original. The bass (tube train) and clunky ( "pub) piano" ruled on the original , compared to the grand orchestral melody on this , which , though a beautiful arrangement that does the composer and musicians great justice, is too far removed from the original "gritty almost depressing, undercurrent of serious" ethos that the original conveyed. The 1988/1991 stereo trial version of the original is my favourite.

Better than the jazzy theme, the duff duffs just weren’t right there

The duff duffs and the lack of a whistle at the end were my only real problems with the jazzy theme. The actual arrangement was good. But without the drums and the whistle it lacked the EE feel.
