I don't get why people dislike this theme, this theme is actually great in my opinion

[@roguefilmproductions7565]

It does have a proper awesome movie vibe.

[@THOMAS_VANN]

It's one of my favorite big finish original themes

[@MrExplosion449]

I love this theme - it's one of my favourites, but I don't think it would work with any Doctor other than 8, it just has that unique 8 vibe

[@fadedstudiosx5800]

its ore like the movie so it ties better with classic who

[@buffyoda3420]

It sounds like if Doctor Who was a Netflix Original Series.

[@her0880]

Such an underrated theme.

[@dylerturden8018]

Great theme, has a 1997-2001-ish vibe to it, like something you'd hear on an old vhs tape as a kid

[@TheVicarstownSentinel]

Honestly I wish they would boost the bass on the Middle 8 here, and use this theme more often for Big Finish audios. Tbh the David Arnold arrangement is ok but would sound better with more Derbyshire mixed in like how Gwylock edited it. Nic Bowden also mixed some Derbyshire into this one to give it more oomph.

[@user-zc7qx9ob4c]

Jamie"s back!

[@WhiskeyBrewer]

This is my favourite version of the 8th Doctor Theme. with David Arnold's a close second

[@martinmanifold2241]

One of the better big finish Dr themes

[@kurumais]

i cant wait to hear these just finished off the c'rizz and charley era.

[@Bargie57]

You can jump to the 8+Mary stories directly if you want. Within his time-line they happen before he meets Charley, so they're a nice little breather before heading off into the Lucie Miller and Dark Eyes stories.

[@tardisglitch547]

I listened to the rest of Charlie first with her two seasons and the one with 6 and then listened to these and now I'm about to start dark eyes

[@TurnerWho]

I’m just starting is it good?

[@8LiterallyJustTheNumber8]

I really wish BBC would hire Jamie Robertson to co-work with (if not outright replace) Murray Gold. Murray Gold is amazing, but I'd love something that doesn't sound like it was written by him, and Jamie Robertson's work to date is incredible.

[@matthewparker6676]

Awesome Doctor Who Theme Not Long As Everything Missing Out Of This Doctor Who Theme.

[@bigboymedia453]

0:23 is the best bit

[@victorhernandez8723]

The adventures listed here were ones in which the Doctor's companion at the time was none other than the author of "Frankenstein" Mary Shelley.

[@Bargie57]

Nope, this is the full one. But there is, IIRC, a quick 'sting' version for the cliffhangers.

[@martinmanifold2241]

I love it ! Great job

[@Valeomega1996]

This needs to become the theme

[@KevinTheTimeGeek86]

An excellent video to my fave remix of the Doctor Who theme! XD

[@martinmanifold2241]

Great graphics at the beginning

[@martinmanifold2241]

I like ittttttt ♡

[@tararinaster]

Thats the first version of the cybermen from "the tenth planet"

[@Bargie57]

I'm not sure what you mean? Do you mean the one of the cover of "The Silver Turk"? Without wishing to give away spoilers, let's just say it hadn't had the best of days ...

[@Trayusstudent1]

This should seriously have been Dark Eyes' theme

[@Bargie57]

Yeah, I know what you mean. I've a hell of a lot of respect for the stuff Jamie does (his music and sound on "Blue Forgotten Planet" is stunning) but really not keen on this remix. I can understand what he was trying to do but, for me at least, he went to "Murray Gold" for my taste, but I do like the attempt to amp up the Debney theme. (I still prefer the Arnold version for McGann, though! :) )

[@TempusWare]

I'm not sure if I like this theme. I wish it would have been more faithful to the original arrangement.

[@Bargie57]

+TempusWare It's heavily inspired by the Debney take from the Movie. There's a lot to like about it, but it does get a bit crowded towards the end. Normally love the work Robertson does for Big Finish, but this one just didn't quite do it for me.

[@Mental_Warlock]

TempusWare the middle 8 is familiar

[@slothdoesthis]

DW2012

[@iLikeTheUDK]

@The8thDOCTOR But he did. Look it up on Wikipedia, or in the TARDIS Data Core.

[@Drwhofanindatardis]

Gwylock1 are you sure it's not the closing theme from Horror of Glam Rock :P

[@Bargie57]

I think you may have misunderstood The8thDoctors comment. It was a jokey reply to me saying I prefer his version to the Robertson version used in this video.

[@The8thDOCTOR]

probably

[@Bargie57]

I think iLikeTheUDK must have read the comments 'Unthreaded' and misunderstood the context of your comment about Arnold being best for Bond.

[@The8thDOCTOR]

until 00:23 is epic after that it becomes electric saw

[@partyP00per123]

What is wrong with the cyberman

[@Mental_Warlock]

The middle 8 is familier

[@Bargie57]

Possibly as it's heavily inspired by the Debney version from the Movie.

[@iLikeTheUDK]

But Arnold didn't do this theme. He made this dark theme, used from 2001-2008: /watch?v=uHelehSDwSI The one in this video was made by Jamie Robertson.

[@The8thDOCTOR]

no one said that Arnold did this theme.

[@ptolemeeselenion1542]

The first half of this theme is very subpar.

[@The8thDOCTOR]

lol David Arnold is best suited for Bond

[@Mental_Warlock]

Better than big finnish

[@Bargie57]

Huh? This *is* a Big Finish theme.

[@garrold7123]

WAIT WHATEHFUCK!!! WHY ARE THERE PICTURES OF A DISK WITH THE 8TH DOCTOR WHEN THE 8TH DOCTOR ONLY WAS IN THE MOVIE?!?!?!?!??! THE 8TH DOCTOR WAS ONLY IN A MOVIE. HOW HE CAN HAVE AN SERIES

[@Bargie57]

Surely only having the movie under his belt is more than sufficient reason for him to get a proper run of stories? McGann has made an excellent Doctor through his work with Big Finish.

[@DevilboyScooby]

He's been (in my opinion) the best audio doctor of the lot, and has had some memorable companions along the way (Sheridan Smith being my favourite, though I haven't listened to all the Mary Shelley ones yet). All of the surviving doctors are at it on Big Finish (apart from 9th, 11th & 12th) Also, he was also in Night of the Doctor. So not ONLY a movie.

[@jackcollinsmartin4210]

Eight is the longest running Doctor, even surpassing Tom Baker's run. He's had dozens of audio adventures through the main range, over 40 through the Eighth Doctor Adventures Big Finish range, and over 30 audios so far for the Dark Eyes and Doom Coalition ranges. Not only that, but he has a book series with over 70 books. (Aka: the EDAs. Look them up! :D). He also had one book in the VNAs. His adventures are way more adult than New Who, with sex, language, gore, and violence, but they're all great and you should check them out! :D

[@Bargie57]

Heretic!!! :)

[@garrold7123]

Whathefuck do you with with big finish? GOD I HEAR IT EVERYWHERE!!! WHAT DO THEY MEAN WITH BIG FINISH! BIG FINISH OF THE SERIES?! HELL NO THE SERIES IS STILL RUNNING ENDS AT TEH SEASON 10 CUZ PETER CAPALDI IS LEAVING LOL

[@Bargie57]

The company is named after an episode of "Press Gang"

[@jackcollinsmartin4210]

+Rose Tyler Big Finish is a company that makes audio adventures, especially for Doctor Who. They've been running since the early 2000s, and have even started bringing New Who into the equation with making a New UNIT series, a River Song series, and Tenth Doctor audios.

[@eyeofhorus3286]

actualy they have been running since the late 90s. They were founded in 1996, first produced an audio in 1998 and first did a doctor who audio in 1999.

[@jackcollinsmartin4210]

+Eye of Horus Sorry about that, I was thinking about the 'Sirens of Time', which was in 2002. I didn't think about other audios that they've produced.

[@LiamWillisFilmmaker]

How stupid are you?
