Segun Akinola leitmotifs

Segun Akinola was the composer for Doctor Who under Chris Chibnall, beginning in 2018 with Series 11.

As part of his work, he has created leitmotifs for characters, ideas or situations. These recur throughout his episode scores from Series 11 onwards.

This page is intended as a record of identified leitmotifs and the timings of their appearance. Many leitmotifs do not have an official assignment to a particular character or idea from Segun himself, however can be assumed as such from the timing of their appearance and characters onscreen throughout their appearance.
