Written in 1962 as theme for a TV series, "Stranger on the Shore" became the first British recording to reach number one on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100. Unique sound of Acker Bilk's breathy, vibrato-rich, lower-register clarinet style accompanied by strings.

Originally written for the TV show in 1963, this version written by Murray Gold in 2005 features samples from the original theme enhanced by additional orchestral and electronic sounds.
Excellent example listening for a Space theme at KS1 or KS2 or for a TV theme tune at KS3.

Shorter version of Murray Gold's 2005 version of Dr Who theme.
