08 Proms - Music of the Spheres



Written by Russell T Davies
Directed by Euros Lyn
Produced by Catrin Lewis Defis
Executive Producers:

  • Russell T Davies
  • Julie Gardner
Length: 7.5 minutes

The Doctor lies on the TARDIS floor composing a symphony whilst listening to the "Music of the Spheres" - the Universe's gravity patterns fed through the TARDIS harmonic filter producing a musical sound. The Graske teleports into the TARDIS to warn the Doctor about a space portal that promptly opens in the TARDIS linking it to the Royal Albert Hall during a Proms concert. The Doctor converses with the audience revealing that he played the tuba at the very first Proms, making a joke about Beethoven's deafness and implying that he has met him. The Doctor sends his own sheet music through the portal to the orchestra to have his symphony, Ode to the Universe, played by them. As the orchestra plays the Doctor's symphony conducted by the Doctor himself with his sonic screwdriver, the Graske steals the Doctor's water pistol and uses the portal to get to Earth.
