Favourite Television Themes was an album released by Century 21 Records that collected the tracks of two of their previous mini-albums, namely TV 21 Themes and Lady Penelope Themes, which both contained theme tunes relating to the series published within the magazines of TV Century 21 and Lady Penelope respectively. It had an issue number of LA6, indicating it was the sixth release in Century 21's range of long play albums.
As also featured on TV 21 Themes, an arrangement of the Doctor Who theme by Eric Winstone and his Orchestra was included. This rendition had also been used for the audio story The Daleks, a narrated version of the Doctor Who episode "The Planet of Decision" which Century 21 Records had produced.

Notes[[edit]]
The Daleks feature on the back cover.
- The back cover of this release features a picture depicting Troy Tempest, Marina, two Daleks and Lady Penelope's car against the backdrop of Marineville.
- Unlike on Lady Penelope Themes, the Beverly Hillbillies are consistently mispelt as the "Beverley Hillbillies" for this release. Eric Winstone's last name is mispelt "Winston" in a mistake retained from TV 21 Themes.
- The "Lady Penelope", "Parker" and "Parker — Well Done!" tracks are sung in-character, with David Graham reprising his role as Parker, Peter Dyneley reprising Jeff Tracy and Sylvia Anderson reprising both Lady Penelope and Lilian from the televised run of Thunderbirds.
- In contrast to the themes as originally broadcast, Ken Barrie provides the vocals for "Beverley Hillbillies", "Aqua Marina" and "Fireball".
