The person who performed the original Dr who theme was a female member of the BBC radiophonic workshop, Delia Derbyshire. She had quite a job creating this sound as there were no synthesisers back in the 60s. It was all done by recording sound and cutting tape. Derbyshire never got the recognition she deserved for her hand in creating the Dr who theme tune. The composer was Ron Grainer but she deserves credit for her hard work in realising it.

[@faithjenner4588]

Did she use a Theramin?

[@hexyko4850]

I know about Delia but I was under the impression she used tape loops AND synthesisers... wasn't there rudimentary synthesis back then? Didn't Perrey and Kingsley use synths at the time? I'm pretty sure there were experiments done since the early or mid '50s.

@@UnchainedEruption Unlike the Simpsons, Doctor Who has generally stayed very true to its roots. Aside from Hartnell and Pertwee, the overall format and feel of the show has remained pretty much the same. Bad writing does not change the show's identity, because the show was still very much 'Doctor Who' despite how terrible Series 6,7, 8, and 9 were. The Simpsons turned from a show about a lovable family show that was not afraid to make commentary of social and political events, into pretty much another shitty adult satire show.

9:31 I'll never forget the 23rd of August. I was 13 at the time. My dad asked me if I wanted to watch this show called "Doctor Who", said he had the first episode of the new season recorded. I'd heard of the show, but never watched it, so I decided to give it a go. If seeing Capaldi for the first time didn't excite me, this intro did. Hearing the sounds of the clocks backing the bassline, seeing the gears disappear when the time vortex twists into existence, it was magical for 13-year-old me. My dad didn't like the show, but I did. So much so that he had our DVR keep recording new episodes. He's gone now. I wish I could go back and thank him for introducing me to Doctor Who.

This is my thoughts on all themes. Eccleston - great visually, the colours were right and having the tardis in the into is always the safe option. Tenant - even better, the way they made the tardis freeze for an instant so the camera angle can change as it enters another direction in the time vertex. I always thought having the pause and the camera turn and the tardis accelerate speed a little as it changes direction was so sick every time I watched that part of the intro I thought it was epic. The reason Eccleston weren’t as good was because they didn’t have it exactly like it and the music didn’t fit in time as well as tennants. Planet of the dead (Tennant) - the music is just pure genius. A much more active theme. One of the best things about this particular intro was how they pushed the music even more. Brilliant piece. Matt smith cloud style intro- even better music. The music sounded god like. Literally. It made the doctor feel and sound like a god. Another thing I loved so much was how they transport into the fiery looking vortex half way through. The way they sped it up slightly and the godly music increased. What a chilling experience every time. Matt smith second intro - I love the music and the colours and how they brought back the face in the intro. Sadly not much of a tardis was shown but it was different which I loved. Peter Capaldi’s - the fan that created this should be proud. The music was completely different yet the same all a the same time. You can still hear the classic tune but has a clock sound to it. This music really felt like what the doctor who music should’ve always been. As for the visuality of it, what a brilliant design, again bringing back the face in the intro. Perfect colours. I mean it’s really hard to say anything bad about this intro. Whittaker’s first intro - again no tardis, no face. The only things that felt like doctor who about it was the classic theme tune which I loved and having the title in the intro. I love that they also kept the 3D effect of the doctor who logo. Though purple is my second least favourite colour I won’t judge it on that because that’s not fair. But most of the time in the intro you couldn’t tell what’s was going on other than some purple splodges moving around.

JNT felt that as Producer, he would give the show a new look for the 1980's--new visuals, theme song, production crew, etc. About the only things that didn't change were the two lead actors--and they would be gone by the end of 1980...After all, their marriage plans took time...

I remember seeing some lady behind a car about to be killed by mannequins before they freezing in their path. I also remember seeing some sun thing in some underground room area.

[@No0neat]

8:47 It is SUCH a shame they used this logo for so little time because this is the best one in my honest opinion. It just sums up everything doctor who in such a simple yet amazingly constructed logo. This one is just plain perfection.Also the transition of the logo into the Tardis still makes me smile. Another thing i deeply miss is this little touch of the Tardis closing in and opening it's doors to the start of the episode, it was a little touch but just so damn cool that i miss it terribly. As for my favorite intro... The 12th doctor takes the cake. It's just an amazing mixture of both old and new doctors. The fact that his face shows up in the intro like the old intros, the rhythm having nods both to the classic and new which too represents what this version of the doctor is supposed to be. But as my favorite version of the song... Call me dumb but i love the 13th doctor's theme. I dunno, i just love the composition of it for some reason, it just sounds right like, if you were to put it over all the other intros it would just... Fit. Love it to death.

I actually didn’t think that logo sums up the show that well tbh. You’re entitled to your opinion of course but that font in particular and the metal finish make the show feel too “epic” in a way. It seems too serious and I feel like it has the potential to age poorly.
