    My late father was a Guardsman,in the Coldstream Regiment.On his death,some 30-odd years after he'd left a wreath appeared at his funeral shaped in the Regimental badge.A rather nice touch I thought.

    People don't seem to understand that the surprising and unexpected part is the fact that the Dr Who theme is not at all a brass arrangement so it's unusual to hear it done by a band like this.

      @@iraqsometimessunnisometime6120 Duchess Kate already is a princess technically but her princess title would be Princess William (ie princess by marriage not by birth). So she uses her Duchess title which she holds in her own name. Another example of wife-princess is Princess Michael of Kent, who is the wife of Prince Michael of Kent. Michael is the younger brother of the Duke of Kent and does not use an alternative title, thus his wife is known as Princess Michael.

    Not only is Doctor Who a national treasure, he’s an intergalactic treasure, so it’s hardly surprising that his adopted home country on his adopted home planet play this in honour of him/her/it. I heard similar played whilst visiting the planet that you earthlings catchily refer to as HD209458 b. It was unusual, but nowhere near as good as this Guards Regiment’s version though.
