rent ’s be fair : were all tragic teenager fans once . In fact , some of us are tragical fans now . And we do n’t all get the chance to be in charge of the show that we loved when we were kid . That enjoin , this song is still painfully bad .
Back in 1985 , Chris Chibnall won a competition to write a Doctor Who composition Sung dynasty for Doctor Who Magazine . It ’s not meant to be sung to the existent show theme , which is good because that would be insufferable . I tried talk it with a sort of old timey sailor drinking birdcall deal , but that did n’t quite work either . Here are the lyrics so you may give it go yourself ( original punctuation is preserved here ):
One foreboding 24-hour interval in ‘ 63
A human race staggered out of the fog
We wondered then who could he be
Our psyche ran riot — and so did he !
Exciting journey through Time and Space
Unknown perils he had to present .
Celery , record-keeper , jelly babies as well ,
It ’s the Doctor you’re able to assure .
Six face have travelled far and broad ,
With faithful companion at their side
The Doctor ’s been hang , drowned , charge , and killed
His mind - numbing dangerous undertaking have certainly filled
The gleeful viewers with delectation ,
To witness his never - terminate flight of stairs
Against the evils in the Universe ,
And the villain always seem to come off worse .
Mary Whitehouse criticized
Because the show was too fierce in her eyes .
It ’s now a national institution
And should be part of the Constitution !
The good old Doctor soldier on
HE ’S THE BEST — SECOND TO NONE
Doctor Who is one of only a few properties which has endure long enough for fan to grow up and be involved . Which is why we cankeepdiggingup stuff like this on them . On the one hand , good for them ! On the other , I am literally red with second - hand embarrassment justly now . This is so , so intemperately to read all the way through without cower .
