Soap opera signature tune ?

Quote
Of all the abilities of the fetus, learning has attracted considerable attention for its 'adult like' qualities.  In 1988 we found that babies whose mothers had watched the TV programme 'Neighbours' whilst pregnant preferred this tune after birth, even though they had only heard the tune before birth.

Very interesting. Not what I had in mind though.

(Hint - this question was posted in Chat, so the answer is unlikely to have much to do with science!)

(Second Hint - older viewers are much more likely to know this)

I like RD's mention of mummys voice. After all baby spends all that time inside mummy hearing it !! My initial mentions of breath, cry and feed I have resigned to instincts now. Could the first thing ewe learn be the adoption of a habit ?

I don't mean to be "crude", but nobody is even flipping close.

Not quite what I had in mind. [:D]

BTW, this one is right up your street. Maybe you got it already?
