This guy is so good, I just thought he deserved a mention.
Murray Gold (born 1969, Portsmouth, England) is a British composer for stage, film, and television.
Gold's credits date back to 1996, and some of his better-known work include music for the TV series Queer as Folk and Clocking Off and the 2000 film, Beautiful Creatures. Since 2005, he has served as musical director for the new series of Doctor Who for the BBC. In this capacity, he created a new arrangement of the show's theme (originally composed by Ron Grainer) and also composes most of the show's incidental music.
Gold's arrangement of the Doctor Who theme was controversial among some fans due to his decision to leave out the "middle eight" portion of the theme, though he later reinstated it for a rearrangement of the theme introduced in the series' 2005 Christmas episode and subsequently used in the 2006 series of the programme.
In 2006 he will be recording a new arrangement of the Blue Peter theme music, to be used on the show from September onwards.
