== Dr who ultimate guide music == | |||
Hi there, after watching the ultimate guide, the part when the silent are introduced has some really cool music!! Does anyone know who performs it?? I'd really appreciate any help. Cheers | |||
The first song that plays when the Silence are introduced is The Sound of Silence by Simon and Garfunkel. Is that the one you were referring to? There are a couple of songs that I was wondering about myself. What is the song that plays at the end of the segment on Jon Pertwee's doctor? What is the song that plays at the beginning of the Cyberman segment? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

According to the article on [[Gareth Roberts]], he wrote the sketch with the Doctor and Clara. Is this confirmed? There is no screen credit but if correct, this should be added.

Sketch in the TARDIS[[edit source]]
Shouldn't the sketch in the TARDIS deserve its own page? Morevover, why is it non canonical, in particular? HarveyWallbanger ☎ 22:59, November 19, 2013 (UTC)
- Well, no one is saying it's non-canonical. The position of the wiki is there is no such thing as canon. But the sketch is an invalid source because it could not exist without reference to the documentary. It is thus essentially non-narrative. It's rather like all those puzzles in old Doctor Who Annuals which were introduced in an apparently in-universe way. Or The Making of Doctor Who, which has elements supposedly written by the Doctor. Or Tales from the TARDIS, a comic series in very early issues of Doctor Who Magazine which had the Fourth Doctor introducing a story, like The War of the Worlds or some old back-up comic strip from Marvel US anthological comics — none of whose stories can actually be considered to be a part of the DWU.
- A more recent example of the kind of thing we've disqualified in this regard are the National Television Awards Sketch 2011. Because the "narrative" of that sketch depends on believing the Doctor was somehow involved with the non-fictional awards show itself, we obviously can't include it, because that would logically mean that everyone who was in that awards show was a part of the DWU. In the same way, we'd have to believe that every single interviewer, Tovey's narration, and the actors who played DWU characters were themselves a part of the DWU in order to admit the sketch.
