Doctor Who Theme 31 - Closing Theme (2010-present)

[@frankierogers428]

The second half of this theme was used during the credits of only one episode: series 5's the Beast Below.

[@MH-oj2to]

And Also Heard In Series 6's A Good Man goes to war. Too

[@clarkejoseph49]

0:09 NEXT TIME!

[@ShroudedFury]

No matter which version 0:44 will ALWAYS be my favourate interlude of all the Doctor Who themes. It gives him such a, i dunno, heroic/cavalry saving the day image even though he doesn't have to do so and he has all this pain and sadness from losing the people he loves and cares about. Yet most of the song is this sort of haunting melody full of danger and weariness so it's a nice little interlude :)

[@sirkaleb9455]

seriously Peter Davison's Theme is The BESSSTTTT

[@jacksonntp617]

Right after 2010 Theme.

[@SuperShinyteeth]

my favorite theme of them all

[@Darkmatter8825]

Perhaps the favorite theme of theme all. See what I did there?

[@harrypainter7472]

Conner Noah yes and it was shit

[@josh5347]

+Harry Painter it isn't shit

[@darthjedi2005]

@SuperWolsey Yeah, that'd be great - that's one thing I never really got into. Also if you had the Big Finish Unbound theme, that'd be good too. I used to have it, but I think it got accidentally deleted a few years ago.

[@HankJwimbleton876]

You know what I hated? People complaining about the theme, just because they had nothing else to whine about. I actually think this theme was better then the 2005-2009 one.

[@TheSequelWasBetter]

This theme has grown on me.

[@Variann]

THE DOCTOR IS COMING BAAAAAAAAAAACK!

[@Melkur1981]

Massive pity they don't make time for the Middle 8 anymore, i've only heard it in the end credits for the beast below, and even that had the announcer talking over it. Its what makes the whole end theme worth while i think

[@theoctograms]

Doctor who themes have always something great in them. Awesome :D

[@einootspork]

I really like the new theme song. It combines the modern sensibility that Murray Gold (and to a lesser extent the TV movie theme) brought to the table with a little more of the old-style idea of the theme that was missing. The synthesizers are much more prominent here than they were in Nine and Ten's eras. I feel that's fitting, because Eleven is far more alien than the two previous Doctors.

[@JamesAHirons_]

I must say as the series progressed I liked this music more and more. Especially twixxed with the exciting time storm titles. The one thing we can guarantee on DW is a change from time to time, and given the chance...it works for most quite pleasingly

[@AngelArtists]

Example of a good build up to the theme was Episode 2 "The Beast Within", THAT'S a good tension building scary moment to keep u watching in anticipation!!!

[@mattmather77]

Loving your work. Think the opening segment of your vids is brilliant.

[@Laceykat66]

OK, once you get the lightning strikes out of it I must say the new theme is getting better. Still like the the first Tenant one better, but you have me here. Good work.

[@Nacho2333]

@XxozzyshizlllxX the drumming is the classic Doctor Who beat you hear in every theme.

[@katie2940]

Mmm... nostalgia

[@MondySpartan]

The closing theme is an extended version of opening theme

[@lyokianhitchhiker]

We're in the 47th season if you count the visual spinoffs (comics, webcasts, illustrated novels) & TV movie from 1990-2004

[@tsuihintree]

@DarthJedi2005remixes Oh that's brilliant!

[@nicktroisi6347]

0:45 is my favourite part

[@ckg927]

This, I like!

[@talipbulundu9493]

Thank you for sharing and labor

[@a2xgaming13]

The part i liked the most 0:41 like if agree

[@FrostiFire1]

All we need now is the Capaldi thems and the Jodie theme this will be all caught up

[@DarthJedi2005remixes]

@hoggys2much Yes, this is the actual theme. And I'm not sure which videos you've been watching, but there a hundreds out there with this theme!

[@MrComedy01]

This TV programme makes me proud to be British :)

[@aa-gr4iv]

hate your intro love the video

[@17thSHIT]

@XxozzyshizlllxX The previous also had the original 60's style sound in it, this one has the 80's style sound in it.

[@darthjedi2005]

@sixstanger00 Oh, I don't disagree that the orchestra was never used excessively, I just think that saying ALL of the series' music was completely artificial is a bit of a broad generalisation as that was not always the case. However, I do agree that the theme had no instrumental elements until later on (Debney, Gold, etc) - although you can't really call the Derbyshire version synthesised. She used quite a lot of practical elements, for example the bassline is a piece of string being plucked.

[@darthjedi2005]

@LtGripweed Ah, but I only meant THIS series - think of the Specials as a Torchwood or SJA to this one's Doctor Who! There may well be some more Special Themes to come along...! (If only I had enough time!)

[@HalloranIllustrations]

Fantastic job Darth and I also wish to thank you as well. With your help I will be able to get by untill the 5th Season of Doctor Who starts on April 17th on BBCAmerica. Wish me luck.

[@darthjedi2005]

@sixstanger00 I disagree with your comment about all of the music being synthesised in the original series. In the 60s and again in the mid to late 70s quite a lot of the music was recorded using actual instruments - in the 60s they used quite a lot of stock tracks from the BBC archive, and in the 70s, Dudley Simpson had a 7 or 8-piece brass orchestra which performed the incidental music. However, it is correct to say that quite a bit was synthesised (especially the 80s!)

[@PerlaB4]

I miss hearin this theme on tv :(

[@darthjedi2005]

@F0nkyNinja The bit between 0:43 and 0:56, after the main melody line, but before the repetittive oooo-eeee-oooos at the end

[@DarthJedi2005remixes]

@tsuihintree I made it myself from the clean closing credits sequence used in the early 1980s.

[@sabrebIade]

@ShroudedFury I totally agree about the :44 mark

[@RCPlanes59]

@DarthJedi2005remixes Whoops, misread it. I read it as it being uploaded on the 31st.

[@GallifreyFilms]

@sherrytastic Actually RTD has won several awards for his work on Doctor Who as well as great recognition by several organizations and publications look it up. The thing i can't understand is that so many people put RTD down but if it wasn't for him we may not have Doctor Who now. Everyone watched it and loved it when he was at the helm so why the sudden turn around? Makes no sense to me.

[@GallifreyFilms]

@ClarkyKnowsBest2 I personally loved RTD's stories and Journey's End was Brilliant. I wouldn't say that his stories were soft it's that he put more of a human element to them which is what i really liked. Moffat doesn't really have that in his. We may be 5 episodes in but we also have only 8 left which may or may not be enough time to salvage the series. I'm glad your being optimistic I guess we will just have to wait and see.

[@mikswizzle]

sooooo, I now want to get into Dr.Who simply because of this theme.

[@Jolamprex]

@MrComedy01 As an American, I'm very happy for you.

[@whoaholic]

I personally never liked any of the new series themes but this is admittedly one of the best dr who themes ever!

[@mabiniss2]

It'd be cool if for some reason they make a stand alone episode that's like (in a mirror, darkly for Star`Trek) Where the doctor is a villian. And have an eerie alternate theme song.

[@H4CK3R117]

I like Matt Smith and the new music, but I still can't get over David and the more epic orchestral, Shakespear like (in my mind) music

[@MetalHedgehog99]

the bit after the middle 8 is gud i loike all the themes but the first one and sylvesters

[@SuperWolsey]

Don't forget the David Arnold Big Finish theme

[@darthjedi2005]

@jampox101 Download Audacity (search it on Google), fiddle around with the settings (I really honestly can't remember which ones!) click record, and you're off!

[@SergeantCatToney]

i like this

[@STARSH1PPAIN]

Already asking who's going to be the 12th Doctor? Come on! Take it easy. You better enjoy Smith, he's doing an awesome work, and he's doctor until 2014.

[@therealKINDLE]

@WilligsPage First of all, it's "Ron". Not Roy! And secondly, Delia dismissed every version of her theme apart from Peter Howell's Rendition. This was because she understood the Time & effort that he put into making it. Unlike this theme which just covers it all in Brass, Whind & String instruments. There's no creative value what so ever. The Synth sounds that ARE there (in the Background it seems) arn't ever Sculpted anyway. It's just Korg Presets. He just gave an orchestra the notes basically.

[@duke1425]

@hoggys2much You may not be alone in thinking that but your OPINION is in the minority. Regardless, the ratings have NOT gone down. The 2010 season viewing average was higher than the 06 and 07 seasons and was only 200k lower than the 08 season. Not a significant drop considering the drastic increase in iPlayer downloads of this past season. Tennant's last "season" was a series of specials so comparing 2010 ratings with that are "apples and oranges".

[@mrmjcole]

I know this theme is abit marmite,people either love it or hate it...personally like i like this theme with the addition beat at the start before the main theme kicks in. Anyways with a new doctor and new production team they have to refresh and stamp their mark on the show.

[@DarthJedi2005remixes]

@hoggys2much Yes, lets have a look at the episodes: "The Eleventh Hour" - brilliant, "The Beast Below" - brilliant, "Victory of the Daleks" - brilliant (although I agree with you about the new Daleks...), "Time of Angels/Flesh and Stone" - brilliant, "Vampires of Venice" - brilliant, "Amy's Choice" - brilliant, "The Hungry Earth/Cold Blood" - brilliant, "Vincent and the Doctor" - probably the BEST DW story ever written, "The Lodger" - brilliant, "Pandorica Opens/The Big Bang" - brilliant.

[@TheGiandude]

@mabiniss2 in a like 5 or 3 series I'm sure that will hapen because of the valeyard

[@sherrytastic]

@GallifreyFilms then explain to me why moffat has won so many awards for his episodes and not RTD?

[@MozWorld]

the only time this was played with the middle 8 part was at the ending of "the beast below" ):

[@Payuk]

This program makes me wish the Doctor was real

[@SuperWolsey]

@DarthJedi2005 Ok. Mind if I hook you up with the Bernice Summerfield theme variations?

[@DarthJedi2005remixes]

I genuinely have no idea. Perhaps somebody dislikes me for revealing that my acquisition and upload of some of these themes is (whisper it!) *illegal*?

[@darthjedi2005]

@EconomicImperialist Through the magical powers of my mind! No, not really, just a simple audio rip from the BBC's official Doctor Who website where they released the full theme.

[@crashfan9997]

Shame this was only used once and only in series 5.

[@Drakelx555]

Opening theme doesn't have middle 8

[@Whovian93]

@AngelArtists It's "The Beast Below" isn't it?

Actually the opening theme doesn't have the middle 8 in it.

[@darthjedi2005]

@XxozzyshizlllxX Dave?!?! I'd like to know what DAVID Tennant would say if he knew someone called him "Dave"! ;-)

[@tazer5]

@mikswizzle do it and you won't regret it, watch every episode you'll love them!

[@Arthus850]

@DarthJedi2005 I don't think calling him dave is any different that calling james cameron jim. or calling william shatner bill. I'm still calling him david though

[@MrFishman55]

The middle 8 in the themes are really good. Especially this one. The only better middle 8 is peter davidson's. This one makes me imagine a huge spiral of time energy, and the tardis flying in the middle of it.

[@tsuihintree]

@DarthJedi2005remixes Yes! Where's that from?

[@thetimeempress1518]

Could you do an update on this?

[@GallifreyFilms]

I am actually enjoying the new theme music but can't say the same for the series so far. Not exactly giving me the thrill as Tennants run did but how do you improve on perfection.

[@DarthJedi2005remixes]

@tsuihintree What, the intro?

[@TheSarcad]

The Doctor is God :-)

[@dylanlarge11]

Well. he literally is a god now....thanks Chibnall!

[@AngelArtists]

I f*cking LOVE this version of the theme (& I'm a purist as I LOVE the original), & when the snare kicks in mid intro it gives me goosebumps. But the only thing that let's it down are the series 5 opening scenes b4 the theme kicks in. They're just not scary enough & have no tension whatsoever. I mean, the Doctor jumping out of a cake proceeded by the theme music! Crap!!!

[@warszawianka]

This theme needs to be reworked. Less drums and chirpy synth, more Derbyshire tones. Hopefully we will get a rework after Series 6 like we did between 2an

@hoggys2much Furthermore, the AI figures have remained strong and are also consistently higher than Tennant's 1st two seasons. You shouldn't believe everything you read in the Daily Mail. Newspapers thrive on controversy to sell papers. Independent study of both the ratings and AI figures clearly show that the ratings are strong. Let me know if you want me to send you a link to where I got my information regarding the ratings/AI.
