Not very high I would think .... unless Network or Acorn have it on their list of possible releases.

Do any episodes still exist? I've never seen this programme but love the theme tune - 'Sleepy Shores' by Johnny Pearson.
It's a spin of "The Doctors" so should that be released first

That was written before I found out it was on YouTube (otherwise I'd have posted it then).

What a beautiful piece of music. Johnny also composed the theme tune for the classic children's series Mary, Mungo & Midge, equally emotional, if you're as soppy as me.

Tony Hatch's theme tune to The Doctors (barely 1½ min in length) is an absolute cracker.
Pearson also wrote the brilliant theme to The Rat Catchers, plus General Hospital (Red Alert), Spy Trap and of course All Creatures Great And Small.
I remember this series, great music
That is quite catchy. You can here a snatch of it, and many other of TH's themes, at this Amazon page:
