    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.

    6th Doctor #2: Okay, completely new tune. This one's weird.
    7th Doctor: Pretty good, especially since this track is starting the 90s even in '87.
    8th Doctor/Movie: It's the movie. You can't _not_ have a dramatic intro. And it nails!
    9th Doctor: It's the creepy original, now remastered for 2005! This one's probably the scariest (childhood).
    10th Doctor #1: Same tune, but now more up in your face. I retract last statement to put it here.
    10th Doctor #2: Orchestral! Nice twist, the strings helped out a lot!
    11th Doctor #1: I like this one, probably my favorite. It pops, for some reason!
    11th Doctor #2: Returning to the 80s with the whole face-in-space thing, but we've still got the 70s intro music.
    12th Doctor: I love these visuals! Also, this was a nice fresh twist to the original theme.
    13th Doctor: BASS! And it seems we've returned to the 60s style visuals and similar style theme.

    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.
