Good grief. You don't remember it?

This (http://www.nyrond.co.uk/tunes/s&s-main.mp3) was the beginning and this (http://www.nyrond.co.uk/tunes/s&s-end.mp3) was the end (poor quality recordings dragged off the web somewhere but you'll get the idea). I've seen it derided as "bombastic" and reminiscent of 50s sf films, but for me it underlined the basic facts about Sapphire and Steel; that they are far more powerful than they appear, and that they are agents of order, definitely not of good. They do not care about us or want us to feel better; they just want things tidy.

The icon literally popped into my head as I was reading this thread last night, which is why it was a bit of a rush job.
