From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference

That's partially my concern.

It's true the characters can't hear it, but is it still part of the narrative?

If it is then we get into a discussion of the incidental music and is it 'narrative'? If it is then we'd need to take into account everytime "I am the Doctor" is played (which is a much more frequently used piece of music than the tick tock rhyme).
