Gotta love how the first opening for the Third Doctor is so trippy, it's like the BBC was going "Look at all the crazy colors we can do now on TV".
It's was the 70s after all
The 70’s and all with crazy colours especially clothing
@@cat5902 rofl 😂😂😂
@@cat5902 That's why I nickname the 70's the LSD era and the 80's the Cocaine one.
The irony being, it was shot in black and white, then colour with gel overlays later one.
It's amazing how timeless the very first version already was.
The woman was a genius
It was timeless then and still timeless now. And in the future it will still probably be timeless.😂
For some reason the first and second Dr, Who intros are my favorite even though it's black and white ... to be honest i never really watched the show hardly except for the intro ... there must've been reruns in the 70s because i remember seeing it on TV when i was a young kid ... for the longest time the color versions didn't look like color because we still had a B+W TV! Craig Ferguson did a Dr. Who tribute on the late late show and despite it being fairly corny the sound of the music itself was done very well especially when you compare it to the original themes!
it is compared to the abomination of the current theme
I prefer the first RTD era tune
I love the Capaldi intros, especially for that one episode where they swapped his and Jenna's names and showed her eyes instead of his, such a cool touch to reflect the storyline.
what episode and season on amazon
I honestly don't know how I missed she had top billing for that episode.
@@angryhero2765 Series 9, I believe - "Death In Heaven".
@@a-mellowtea*series 8
It's really clever honestly. She says "I'm the Doctor" and then it cuts right to the altered intro.
I never realized how many variations there are of 12’s theme. It is cool how they changed it up often then
a bunch o’ ‘em being off-sync with each other 😒
People always seem to forget that the opening theme used in "Voyage of the Damned" has a piano at the end that's never heard again.
Nitro Indigo u can hear that if u listen to the theme from the series 4 soundtrack album :)
Also the guitar is mote aggressive/louder in Volyage of the Damned.
Riveting
DOCTOR WHO HURRAH!
NURSE WHO? RUBBISH!
I never forgot because I didn’t know.
My late aunt; Judith Byfield (6th September 1951 - 20th May 1989) played the part of Angela Clifford in Time-Flight which was the seventh and final serial of the 19th season.
It broadcast from the 22nd to 30th March 1982.
Whilst Time Flight isn’t the best serial, I feel immensely proud to have a family connection to the franchise.
She also appeared in Bergerac (1981) & also Wuthering Heights (1978).
Also, her husband appeared in the BBC Radio adaptation of The Lord of The Rings. He played the Black Rider who utters the line ‘Shire. Baggins’ as well as playing Beregond. Last year I spoke with Brian Sibley about this & he recalled working with my uncle.
My aunt was in Doctor Who also. She played Doctor Who from ‘77 to ‘89
Why reply like that? @@JohnnyFontane528
@@mrmanakin9684 why even ask that question?
Wow, David. You must be very lucky. 😉 I'm happy for you and your late aunt. She must be very special. 😊
she get to fly concord?
I love what a cultural phenomenon Doctor Who is, and how everyone has "their" Doctor. My Doctor was Peter Davison.
Mine was always eccleston, he's the only one I watched, i got bored 3 episodes into tennent, but I'm in the mood now, because a podcast I listen to (Loud equal Funny, cool guys) keeps bringing it up. Was gonna start from the beginning and watch classic who, but I started watching the sopranos and im too invested in that now, and i wanna watch twin peaks next
@@tivvy2vs21Same here! Eccleston was my doctor. Tennent was ridiculous and over acted and unwatchable tbh 🤷🏼♀️
Mine is Patrick Troughton
@@stephenholmes1036 shame how many of his episodes are lost, just started watching from 1963, he only has a few complete serials
I suppose Matt Smith is my Doctor because he's the one I saw the most of, but I had seen some of Christopher Eccleston who got me into Doctor Who, David Tennant the first time he was, and Peter Capaldi. Less of any before Eccleston, and none of Jodie Whittaker or David Tennant's second run.
The THEMES from Peter Capaldi he actually played the guitar for the theme.... So you could say The Doctor is playing his own Theme music to his show
Considering how big a fan capaldi is could you imagine just how giddy he must have been when he was asked to do that, I mean not only be the doctor but play your own intro! Another level of epic
cringe
Tom Baker's first intro is by far my all time favorite, even today looks great!
Completely agree.
I agree. I'm not a big Dr who fan, but I used to watch it on Sunday nights.
It was so trippy
That's what I remember growing up in the 70s. Then you had Generation Game and Match of the Day.
Scared me to death - still does!
I think that was when it was first broadcast in the US. So it was my first view of The Doctor. That might be the reason, he too, is still my favorite.
3:23 Tom Baker’s second intro they hit that synth harder and faster, definitely the definitive version for me.
Without doubt the best and hardest hitting theme.
I love the violins building up the intensity at the beginning of 10’s last intro. It tells you you’re not in for a walk in the park.
when they started using it season 4, felt like most of his episodes weren't even a walk in the park.
The old Who had the scariest music, until Colin Baker/McCoy when it turned flaccid. The outro music was even scarier. Nothing terrified me more than an ending with Davros shouting his head off and the screaming, distorted synth cutting him off.

@@TheOriginalJphyperBy the way, Jacqueline Hill wasn't Susan. She was Barbara. Susan's actress is Carol Ann Ford
@@sarikachahal6188 Sounds like someone on Wikipedia screwed up.
@@TheOriginalJphyper Much of your list is wrong!
I still love the older ones best. The key change (or whatever it is) just gets me in the throat every time.
For me, Patrick Troughton's intro is the best. The way the feedback (if that's what it is) peels outward to reveal a smiling yet enigmatic Doctor's face along with the introduction of a fuller sound with spangles and rippling effects make this title sequence the best for me.Though some of the nineteen seventies versions with the split screen effects were close.
A few missing ones:
- The Troughton titles with Hartnell theme from season 4
- The Pertwee titles with Troughton theme heard variously in season 8
- The brown "Ark In Space" titles
- The "Five Doctors" titles with music from the single version, rather than TV version
- The "Time and the Rani" part 4 with different McCoy face animation
- The series 3 Tennant titles with original Eccleston music but new logo
- "Voyage of the Damned"
- The season 7a variants
Is Doctor Who a Chemist?
and now the 60th and xmas 2023 theme tunes
And the curse of fatal death
I just freaking love all the intros! Every single one has its specialities and quirky sounds that makes them all great. And I really love to hear the development over time, starting with few, if not one distorted instrument, up to a whole orchestra.
5:57: Nothing hits quite like this one. They really put an extra edge on the synth, there's a sinister, ominous vibe. Gave me chills as a kid, and still does.
That was Keff McCulloch's arrangement. I seem to recall hearing from someone that Delia Derbyshire never cared for it.
@@firstlast5499being upstaged will do that to a musician.
@@Selzor I was not much of a fan of Keff’s loud and overpowering incidental music… and not much of a fan of his rendition of the theme either. Now if you want to hear and see a cool version, look up a group called Arc Attack. There really is no substitute for seeing them live.
Yea, I didn't like Time and the Rani, but hearing this version for the first time was a huge deal for me.
Loved this one as a kid. So distinctive compared to the other arrangements
Nothing is more evocative of absolute, abject terror than the sound of Doc 4's theme at 3:22 coming on the TV when I was seven years old when my mom would watch Dr. Who on WGBH out of Boston in the early '80s. Seeing Tom Baker's floating head on the screen and hearing that viscerally horrific music would set me to running and hiding instantly... but I would always come back to sneak a peek to see a Dalek or two! When I got older, my favorite version of the song would be Pink Floyd's, naught but a short tease of it in a live performance of their song One of These Days, but that scorching bassline always makes me explode in goosebumps
Haha, bro are you me? Hearing that goddamn theme song as a kid... in Boston.... but I thought it was on PBS? My memory isn't great. Channel 2?
@@TheUncleshady Your memory is flawless, friend. WGBH was PBS's channel designation for channel 2 out of Boston. I was up in NH watching it. Back then we only got 2, 4, 5, 7 and a little bit of 25, 38, and 56. Those were the days ❤️
@@professorlegacy channel 38 was great for Sox games, but as a kid I was glued to channel 56. Thanks for the trip back in time.
As a late whovian, I’ve had the opportunity to fall in love with all the doctors. Thank you for the 60 years of joy that you’ve given us all. May there be many more💜
i envy you so much!!!
7:35 and McGann's TV movie... I LOVE the piano run down that it has here. So damn good. Wish another theme had incorporated it or something like it.
The piano notes are in the next theme arrangement. It is back to full orchestra.
@@simonjones1342 Yes. I just realized that was where that part came from. i genuinely love it.
15th's got some CRAZY good piano and the end of his!
Tom Baker was my Doctor Who.
Our Grade 4 Teacher made a deal with the class if we all finished our work, Friday afternoons, the last hour of school, we could watch the Doctor.
The theme song is probably one of the last things I’ll hear before I die. 😝
I grew up with 9th-11th Doctor. These bring back my childhood memories 😍
Hey guys, I’m glad you all are enjoying this video! I uploaded this for fun years ago and never thought it would get that many views! I’ve seen some of you pointing out that I forgot some intros like The Ark In Space one, excuse for me that! I will upload an updated version with (finally) ALL the intros when we get the intros of the 60th specials and series 14, like spring next year. See ya then!
Nice, since you also include some specials in the video, one more thing comes to mind: there was an episode in which Clara initially claims that she is the doctor. The intro starts with her name and instead of Capaldi's face, hers is also shown. Maybe you can include the intro too.
Death in Heaven, was the episodes name
@@MarsMcPracht I included it in this video
@@alekskrakoew8584 Ups... sorry i missed that
first ones were the trippiest, no contest but for my money, Matt Smith's remain the best: energetic, pumping, epic, all around amazing. Best Doctor and best intro in my opinion
2:43 the Dr Who I was introduced to as a kid by my babysitter (who was a huge fan) thank you Liz for making me a fan 😀
Fun fact: the titles for the peter capaldi era were based off of a fan made doctor who title sequence.
That explains why they suck so much.
@@Zero_Ninetythe fan intro is actually phenomenal, they butcherd itb😭
@@DeadMansMixtapeThe weird thing is that that same fan made the final title sequence.
As a Time Lord myself, i really do appreciate the time & trouble taken in compiling every Doctor Who opening sequence. 👽
Can you do me a favour and go back to 1986 and beat up Diego Maradona before the quarter final match with England 🏴. While your at it could you beat up Mr old Maths teacher Mr Carol (Nower Hill High ) 🙏 please.
He's the The Master! RUN!
@@CoreDreamStudios
Bloody wanker that fella
I am also a Time Lord......
Imagine being in front of your tv, a new tv show called "doctor who" got announced you already imagune what it looks like in your head and then you see the first intro
I can confirm that it was truly terrifying. Nothing like it on the TV in the early 60s. The later Gay Dr Who intros from the 80s onwards were 🩲
Honestly, the TV movie theme at 6:50 just hits so well. The opening is just so optimistic and heroic, and then it goes into the main theme with a tinge of evil to it... just perfect :D
Glad I wasn’t the only one thinking that its always been my lowkey favorite
And when the drums come in, total bop.
to be honest I really love 2005 to davids exit 7.52 to 9.41 then went completely wrong
They rehash and remix the same part of the theme for a majority of the openings, but I think the opening at 1:47 is when we get more of the expanded theme. It’s very briefly heard in an opening before that, but it’s fading away. It’s then more in the forefront of the TV movie version you like.
Don’t consider myself a fan, but know what I like and enjoy, and I do enjoy the premise and word of Dr Who.
It just feels different from the others somehow. It's got a bombastic feel that befits an American production.
I love every doctor who tiles sequences because it makes me watch every doctor who story all the way through by the first doctor title sequence was used for the second doctor unit the Marco terror
Doctor who is the only show I don’t skip the intro
I have never skipped the “Bottom” and “Stranger Things” intros either…
This is currently my favourite and best of the opening titles on CZcams as its the most comprehensive in my view. Thanks for maintaining.
No problem! :)
@@alekskrakoew8584 I'm glad they brought back the face intros with Jodie
Love 10:15 theme, it's just full of this amazing opening and sound that's just so much fun.
my fave as well, sounds epic and fresh.
This ^ - its the electronic squeal at the beginning - great lead in...
Plus the urgency. I feel like I'm in there! Lol This is a fun one.
Tom Baker, in my opinion, is the quintessential Doctor.
13:13 I love this intro. I can just imagine the doctor on guitar 🎸Visually, I love Peter Capaldi intros as well.
Don’t know if you’re aware, but the guitar riff used in that title sequence was actually played by Peter Capaldi!
It's too bad we only got this used once because it's absolutely awesome
Matt Smith is my favourite Doctor, and his series 5 theme is so good. I like Jodie's theme as well. Really felt like a new vibe for a while new direction of the show. Shame it didn't work out, but let's see what 14 has in store for us.
The theme is majestic, they played it on the Doctor Who concert a few weeks ago but they released it officially yesterday I guess. We still have to wait until the specials release to see the full opening title
Three Dr who played marvel villians and one a DC villian
14 is David Tennant the absolute god he is haha can't wait for him to be his usual self
@@acewhisper38272we have him only for 4 episodes, the other have ruti
6:00 the creation of modern Doctor who opening sequences.
People at BBC wow we can do a 3d now
I adore and laughed out loud with happiness that you included Clara's opening when she tried to fool the Cybermen into believing she was The Doctor. It was such a great moment when they went from that declaration into the titles and it focused on her, I love it every time I rewatch the show. Thanks again!
Clara was my most hated character. The actress is awesome but she annoyed the heck out of me
@@Angelicwings1 I liked her fine with 11, but with 12 and Danny Pink, it sort of became "The Clara Show" and I didn't appreciate that so much.
I absolutely was in love with the new theme, and title sequence. It's like a modernized version of the 1963 William hartnell era.
Gotta say my favourites are the Trial of a Time Lord (second Sixth Doctor theme), the seventh doctor, nuwho season 4 and the 50th anniversary season. I love all the little Easter eggs in the 50th anniversary titles, little bits of every theme and every Doctor in there. And of course the return of THE FACE!
The 12th Doctor theme is cool as well because I know it was the work of a fan, and I saw the fan-made version first, before the BBC asked to use his design.
Seeing all these Dr Who themes has been so exciting. Thank you very very much.
Nice stroll through memory lane. Tom Baker was my Dr. Who, although I believe by the time they were airing the Baker episodes here in the US, he had already departed the series.
Thank you for fixing the synchrony in the 12th Doctor's opening. Really appreciate it!
7:52 this is first Dr who I watch as a kid.
Matt Smith's lightning strikes opening is still my personal favourite. Brilliant.
There's so many capaldi ones.
And they are beautiful, except the out-of-sync.
@@alekskrakoew8584 one was out of sync? I didnt notice.
Jacob Thomas I’ve fixed it, the intros here are in sync. But the original isn't
I hate the capaldi episodes of new who.
@@alexthemtaandr211weatherfa2 why? I personally loved them.
Still loving the very first version!
In the early 80s watching PBS this music & Tom Bakers head scared the shyte outta me & then a week later I was a fan..
One of the most epic themes ever made it will stand the test of time
My father passed in April. He was a huge Doctor Who fan and now I'm getting into it in spades. I only wish he was still alive for me to grill him with every episode I watch. (Watching from the beginning)
Glynn's theme was utterly amazing.
MrFlibberGibbet FitzWidget who is Glynn?
Dominic Glynn. He arranged the theme at 5:13. It didn't last long.
Well done thanks for the nostalgia
Seeing Alex Kingston’s name in an intro was so cathartic after following her character for so long.
I always liked the Pertwee version of the theme with the stutter on the beginning.
At 16:00 I remember what they said about this test at the beginning. "Oh my god that simply won't do... that's terrifying!" Or something similar along the lines.
i was confused on that title sequence until i realized it could have been a test title sequence
Then Troughton's rendition happened, his intro used to terrify the shit out of me as a kid (probably because of the B&W and fact that he looks like he's about to jump out of the television at you).
@@saltheirishgit Hey, I mean, at least he's face was far less terrifying than the other guy's face which looked more like the 1950's devil. LMAO!!! XDDDDD
@@IsiniaMosienko Honestly valid, imagine seeing that instead of the intro they released. Let’s just say I don’t imagine Doctor Who lasting as long as it had if they did (though maybe if they used Hartnell instead of a random tester, it might have worked more and been less terrifying but I guess we’ll never know)
I really love the Theme Tune to Doctor Who, yet, I've never watched it
The first Doctor I ever saw as a kid on PBS was Baker - the fourth Doctor the original introduction. It was a repeat episode as the original appeared before I was born/watching TV. Also saw the 5th and 6th Doctor. Then I have only seen this occasionally. Recognized David Tennet's opening and Matt Smith's with Karen Gillian. Guess that is all I have seen over the years.
Who else noticed how they made the out of sync titles from Capaldi in sync in this video? I like that!
3:58 Peter Davidson had the most banging opener. period.
Agree
09:06 is definitely the best one. By a mile.
I love the many variations of the theme music over the years
Great job cutting together! First Version and Unused Scenes at the end are still the BEST!
Felt like I was acting out Heaven Sent with all those Capaldi intros
One really spooky tv show theme song. Was to me when i was a little kid in the early 80s.
basically all the 80s one, they gave the designer some special effects buttons and some crack cocaine.
autistic dalek and that’s why I love them :’)
@@jessica23claire yep, me too
You forgot the golden baker sequence from "The Ark in Space", but still amazing XD
The later ones are just WAY too busy visually and the music sometimes has strings, piano, or other non-electronic instruments. Dr Who theme should be bass heavy with a driving rhythm, have an ominous synth atmosphere, and include a soaring guitar solo. Don't over complicate things.
For some reason the Doctor Who movie title sequence gave me chills. Maybe it's because it set the scene for how the title sequences are generally done today. Although Whittaker's title sequences are a bit different but still alright.
The first arrangement is still the greatest when heard at full length but the repetitive outro to the titles used for Pertwee still sends shivers down my spine.
3.30 will always be 'the real' Dr Who start for me. I remember it even though I was very young. I always considered the guy in the Cricket jumper as 'new'.
I'm actually amazed how the titles and music changed over the years. As a kid of the 1960s, my first Doctor Who was Patrick Troughton, and my last was Silvester McCoy, because I couldn't take him seriously after his funny high-speed capers in 'Vision On' and 'Take Hart'.

Thanks for the info. It really heps 🎉
Loved the movie with Peter Cushing and Roy Castle....
The 13th doctor being a nod to the original is neat.
I love the 80s themes, yes the 7th Doctor’s as well.
The rythem of all intros: Heart beats of a Time Lord.
A couple of them have arrhythmia.
You know shit is getting real when the 80’s intros kick in. 🔥
when the doctor is really the doctor
For me, the Tom Baker episodes will always be the iconic Doctor Who. I guess that's because those were the first episodes I remember being aired in the United States.
Me too; Tom's doctor will always be the first to me because his was the first I'd seen on TV.
Love to see a few "Caretaker" episodes....
Best TV show theme ever. (Yes, I know there are variations, but the underlying theme is similar.)
I love the various Matt Smith/Peter Capaldi ones with the swirling clock faces and cogs.
Everyone forgets the title sequence from The Ark in Space part 1 XD
I remember when the 4th doctor's theme changed to that energetic and exciting version for 4,5, and the first season of 6. I loved the change. With so many Tom Baker episodes, I had gotten so tired of the old version and the visuals seemed dated. However, the visuals for John Pertwee's last season were really cool.
Remember that theme has been around for 60 years in some form or another including "Doctoring the Tardis" Surely Ron Grainer must get an award for it!
Delia Derbyshire played her original arrangement for the composer Ron Grainer. "Did I write that?" he asked. "Mostly" she said.
He'd given her a rhythm and a melody, along with some descriptive words like "sound clouds" and "swoops". She did the rest.
David Tennant and his intro is my fav
Being in my early years and starting with and still remembering Tom Baker (fun fact..do you know he was a Scouser and a Monk who had a vow of silence before taking up acting) up to the next few Doctors, from the the start the intro music through each generatation and knowing when these shows were aired, even thogh revamped is still ahead of its time for each season.
10:24 the visuals make my eyes water, why did they think this was a good idea?
Oh, the goosebumps! 🎉
Thanks for this. Matt Smith"s first theme is my favourite by a mile. It was brilliant for a new, young Doctor. I really like the new one in 2023. It reminds me a bit of 11's one.

This has made me decide to watch every doctor who from the beginning.
Me too because I am a qualified lesbian
This was such a ride.
7th Doctor's intro for me#, since that's the one I remember most from growing up in the 1980s, but they are all fantastic.
I grew up with Baker's Dr, he'll always be my favorite.
Which Baker, Tom or Colin?
@@DS9TREK Tom for me but i'll happily take Colin's Dr over the recent garbage any day.
Makes me miss The Doctor. I never watched it again after Jenna Coleman left the show. I think I'll do a rewatch.
The movie one was the best by far - the drum beat and everything just make it so good
The 13th (Jodie's) is so good; it's just such a shame we didn't see it for very long. It went back to the trippy, sci-fi synth vibe, away from the orchestral versions (which are still good) but fit more with the show theme IMO.
A million happy and frightened memories, mostly from Saturday nights.
I’ve met a few of the classic Doctor Who actors at comic con.

The 7th Doctor has the peak intro. Man... that synth really works for me!
What an evolution ❤❤
I like the Peter Davison theme the best.
