    Its funny seeing Sophie Aldred talking about Doctor Who just a year or so before she went on the show!

    Thank you for uploading this properly. Unlike 99% of SDTV on the internet. There’s a “right way” to do it and yet we’ve somehow built an infrastructure that makes the past look way worse than it needs to.

      Trust me I tried speaking to several BBC people about the Howell multitrack and they’re only allowed to share it for commercial BBC projects- even Mark Ayres told me this and Simon Gurney is the only person who can ‘licensee’ the stems. And you can try so much eventually they’ll tell you that you ‘burned your bridges’ with the BBC. Not worth trying with BBC studios aynmore…

      I think everyone needs to put more respect into the composers who make these music rather than factor the multitrack or stems, seems a bit disrespectful if the only factor you want is the stems or the multitrack of the theme, in which mutually you have a small understanding at least to what I and many people do, is to isolate the theme through plenty of tools.
      At least then when people isolate the theme, they have a firmer attachment to the music and you actual spend time crafting the elements.
      Also, please don't boast about AI Isolating, as much people would give a toss about it, it is lazy, a crap thing to properly set up and execute (including artefacts it leaves behind), and it will never give you the satisfaction and a proper understanding on how the elements were actually set up, I also simply do not care about AI Isolating.

    When I was 4 years old I heard that theme during a rerun of Doctor Who in the late 90s, that actually scared me, I think it was the combination of the creepy music and the Late 80s CGI that terrified me. I only got to the intro and that was it, didn’t want to watch the rest of it so I couldn’t tell what episode it actually was! Also 2:03 still low key scares me! This was years before discovering Doctor Who properly in 2005 with Series 1.
