Chick Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 The new Doctor Who was brilliant, got off to a great start and I am looking forward to more.But what have they done to the original music?? Made by Delia Derbyshire in the BBC radiophonic workshop in 1963. All electronic but no modern synthesisers it was fantastic. Anyone else remember the BBC radiophonic workshop? For years I thought the bass was real. Next vampires and dalec?s, brilliant.http://www.bbc.co.uk/music/artists/39f0d457-37ba-43b9-b0a9-05214bae5d97www.bbc.co.uk/bbcfour/music/features/alchemists.shtmlhttp://www.delia-derbyshire.org/ Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/10719-the-new-dr-who/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andystar Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 It was quite a weird but enjoyable episode- mind you, I did watch it at abt 2 in the morning. I did think the new Doctor did go a little bit OTT sometimes. I'll check with my 5yo niece aka the gremlin, to check if he was good or not. I also agree about the music & the baddies too ( did I see those creepy statues?? )Lastly, here's the best reason to watch. http://blogs.sundaymercury.net/anorak-city/karengillan.pngAnd one for the ladieshttp://moblog.net/media/t/w/i/twiglet/davros.jpg Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/10719-the-new-dr-who/#findComment-312389 Share on other sites More sharing options...

HAL9000 Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 Chick Wrote:-------------------------------------------------------> But what have they done to the original music?? > Made by Delia Derbyshire in the BBC radiophonic> workshop in 1963.A bit of trivia:The theme music was composed by the late Ron Grainer: "In 1963, Grainer was asked to provide a theme for a new children's BBC's science fiction series entitled "Doctor Who" (1963). Despite some changes in the arrangement, this theme is still being used today - some 43 years later! The very first episode of Doctor Who was broadcast in November, on a day when television was dominated by the news of the shooting of President Kennedy, so tended to pass almost unnoticed, but soon became one of the most popular children's programmes of all time."

Chick Posted April 4, 2010 Author Share Posted April 4, 2010 Hal,Yes you are correct the music was composed by Ron Grainer but was done/made by Delia. I love the original any way and would be up for buying it if it's available, I am sure it is. I am old enough to remember the first series and while I didn't hide behind the couch I always had a cushion to cover my face for the scary bits.CheersChick Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/10719-the-new-dr-who/#findComment-312428 Share on other sites More sharing options...

nashoi Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 I came across a Dalek checking out the times on the Top Gear Lap Times board today and thought it made a reasonably amusing photo op so snapped away. Imagine my surprise when I got home and uploaded the shot to my PC, guess which star in a reasonably priced car it appears to be pointing its cannon at? Coincidence? I don't think so!
