At 87 years of age, he has been given a long overdue award in the Queen's Birthday Honours.
Who cannot forget his stirring music such as The Avengers Theme and No Hiding Place- ClassicTV!!
Incidentally Joe Loss Orchestra World Cup March from 1966 bears a striking resemblance to the main
melody theme of No Hiding Place!!!
Never mind Thunderbirds Are Go!!!!

Don't forget Las Vegas (better known as the theme from "Animal Magic"). And Gala Performance - the music for "This is Your Life"...
