   The theme is iconic to us fans. The BBC have kind of messed it   
   up a bit in recent years with all the bombastic music around the   
   basic tune but the original Doctor Who theme (from 1963) and the   
   1967 and 1970 'tweaks' were truly brilliant pieces of work from   
   the BBC Radiophonic Workshop.
