This fantastic theme tune was originally covered by Hank Marvin and featured his son Ben Marvin on rhythm guitar, their official video can be found on YouTube.

The Doctor Who theme music is a piece of music written by Australian composer Ron Grainer and realised by Delia Derbyshire at the BBC Radiophonic Workshop. Created in 1963, it was one of the first electronic music signature tunes for television. It is used as the theme for the science fiction program Doctor Who, and has been adapted and covered many times.

Although numerous arrangements of the theme have been used on television, the main melody has remained the same. The theme was originally written and arranged in the key of E minor. Most versions of the theme – including the current arranged by Murray Gold – have retained the use of the original key, with exceptions being Peter Howell (F# minor) and Keff McCulloch’s (A minor) arrangements.

Although widely listed in reference works, and many series soundtrack albums, under the title “Doctor Who Theme”, its official title is “Doctor Who”, although its initial sheet music release used the now-deprecated form “Dr. Who”.
